Well a little about my family. My parents watch the Indian (National) News, the Malaysian News and gets affected by these foreign issues and they don’t really care about local context! Besides Mas Selamat which was also mentioned in the foreign news, they hardly know about anything that happens in Singapore. Are you parents or relatives like that too?
When my Dad met up with my relatives, all they talked about was about Malaysia’s recent polling and how UMNO made a huge mistake in the past. All I can remember is a body created for the Malaysian Hindus, Badan Untuk Tolong Orang Hindu (BUTOH!). Well at least I had a good laugh. =x
How well do you know your country? Do you prefer watching a foreign news network too?
