Malay Course

Selamat Malam,

Guess wat, I have just started learning the Malay Language as part of my advancement in the SAF. Was supposed to attend it earlier though, which would have done me hell of a good when i was in Indonesia. Wouldnt have to show the "blank" and "huh" look if i could have known what my foreign counterparts wanted! I was relying on graphics and whatever magic i could pull from my trousers in order to get things moving which make Anz an Idiot at times!

Well, learning a new language at such an age issnt easy! Gone are your memory capacity to store the different vocabulary and nouns inside your puny brain and i must admit im feeling the strain too. Well, im taught to understand concepts and mathematics of how things work and learning a language can be quite beyond me. I must admit... IM STRUGGLING!!

However, the malay class is interesting. As it was our first class, the guru was friendly! We were introduced to the Malay cultures and the religious law of ISLAM. It was certainly an eye-opener for me!

Will be looking forward to every tuesday for this class and hopefully come out from this course a better educated person who can speak Malay!

Damn.... I got no one to practise with. How to improve!!

Selamat Tinggal
