Well, I keep telling my husband if he has he chance to take an overseas job, I have no problems with it. I would migrate in a heartbeat. Yes, I want a better life for my child (especially because he is 'special'), and to tell you the truth I have no confidence whatsoever with our education system which I think is responsible for churning out little 'racists' from the schoolyard. And the Malaysian government .... haihh .... I don't need to elaborate, do I? I just discovered your blog from PPS, and I really love your writings!

Only after they have settled down will I (think) of migrating to be with them, if at all. Else, I am happy to spend my old days here, amused by our ever changing polictical landscape!

Hehe... ;) scw, thanks for sharing. Glad to hear first hand experience from someone like yourself who felt the benefits of your parents' sacrifices. I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision for them to uproot in the first place but seeing that you are now enjoying such quality life, they must feel that it was all worth it. I agree with you that Malaysians who are living abroad tend to be more patriotic than those living here! Amy, I know what you mean. That's one of the reasons why I'm also rooted here. hyperX, if you migrate to Japan, is that more for yourself or your kids? Hehe… ;)

I have a small family and we are very close to each other. I cannot imagine being away from them. And I know 'Grass is always greener on the other side' but whether it is true or not it really depends... I don’t think I can migrate. I have a small family and we are very close to each other.
