[Fact post] Preserving Culture

Been a while since I post anything. In b4 I repost this on Tumblr... or not XD

Jawi is at risk of extinction

Personally I don't feel what's wrong about preserving Jawi as part of Malaysian identity. (Or Indonesian identity.... or South East Asian/Nusantara identity... or hmm... though I'm not sure how much Jawi influenced the old Indonesia--but I think Indonesians do use it as well, right? In the days of old since Bahasa Melayu and Bahasa Indonesia was not that different actually. Do they call it Jawi also over there?)

( Jawi as part of local identity? )

To that, I really appreciate what  Prof Dr Kang Kyoung Seok has said. And this was coming from someone who was not that strong in history subjects but I'd like to argue that I'm quite knowledgeable about cultural history part of it. XP  

Passing the Torch: Mega Red

Title: Passing the Torch: Mega Red
Fandom: Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger/Denji Sentai Megaranger
Characters: Date Kenta, mention of Gokaigers
Rating: G
Summary: Based on episode 39. A lesson on youth should be in order.
A/N: Not really familiar with Mega--thus this piece was mostly episode-centric. Thought I might edit this later with Gai, but later I think. That was one of the suggestion anyway... though I dunno. Might try looking up the series to spice up the chapter. Who knows.
