Ask any javanese ppl what melayu means and they will say its
fleeing... I asked my maid, my maids friend... Melayu means
fleeing.... Who is the one who placed migrating in the meaning...
Are they javanese or some researcher etc?
This topic is like fixing a puzzle... look at our history and
how do you think the word tamil comes in? The malay archipelago is
not that mountainous... India also mountainous, why dont they call
themselves melayu too...
There are many small theories, piece it all together... then
history makes sense...
and one post said that there is a place in sumatra and there's
melayu river or something... Is that before the malays
have established their civilisation or after since they
have photos at that time too...
and cowardice part is not part of my theory... It's my
perspective... Ppl who ran away from their obligations are
cowards.
yes, a group of ppl from all races in the world fled their ppl
during a war. The thing is are you the decendent of all the ppl who
fled?
I'm not a decendent of the ppl who fled but this is really not the
point.
I'm not Malay and I find your post offensive and it's like you
trying to find bones in an egg.
It doesn't seem that you cherish racial harmony like what you
said.
You might as well just start a post to say that any race who
flees their country during a war is a coward. Why just the Malays
who did so?
