Did anyone remember Tun Dr Mahathir's motivational national phrase "Malaysia Boleh" that were used all over the country??
Despite being made into jokes, "Malaysia Boleh" somehow had a symbolic effect on the nation.
During Tun's time, we've see many local companies ventured globally.
We seen the development of the best, biggest, tallest and ...also at times... dumbest...
But... "Malaysia Boleh" does in fact propelled Malaysia into a developing nation. It also made us (not all.. but some of us) more confident being a Malaysian to face the age of globalization.
When people tell you 'No' because you're Malaysian. You simply reply to them "Why Not??? Malaysia BOLEH!!".
Well......It is certainly positive.
Muthu:"Hoi... Ah Beng, can you smoke,drink,curse,squat,re
Ah Beng: "Why not??? Malaysia Boleh mar..."

Will Obama's new motivational phrase work for United State?
U.S. is already the land of all the 'BOLEH's. Everything is available and able to do. As they called ,'the land of all possibilities'. The land of the free...well..that's American...
When Barack Obama uses "YES WE CAN", is he doing something psychologically driven?????
......Will this catchline chant ever work????
REALLY... CAN THEY???????
Will this have the same effect we in Malaysia have with "Malaysia Boleh"????
Will we challenge the American:: "Hey you Yankees, you can never drive small cars"???
Will they reply you "YES WE CAN!"????
"Can you stop eating McDonald's"
"YES WE CAN"
"Can you ban weapon sales domestically...and worldwide?"
"YES WE CAN"
"Can you stop thinking that all Muslims are Terrorist?"
"YES WE CAN"
"Can you locate where is Malaysia in the world map?"
"YES WE CAN"
..."Oh... really.. Can you???"
"YES WE CAN"
"YES WE CAN"
"YES WE CAN"
"YES WE CAN"
"YES WE CAN"
..........................
WELL.... I BLOODY HOPE THEY CAN!!!!
Certainly.... MALAYSIA ALWAYS BOLEH!!!!
