Mix of teams, mix of languages

Ugh, I've been unofficially promoted to football manager for the 2 matches that are scheduled for this upcoming weekend (as our captain is too busy doing his personal stuff)

Does it come with any perks? Suffice to say in my dreams only...... I do wonder why people do this stuff on a voluntarily basis, spending precious time and effort to try to run this 'machine'. Ow, that means I'm talking about myself too.....geeez.

Well, it's an opportunity to do some exercise, and doing something that I'd like (kicking a ball) with a bunch of other people is definitely much better than doing it alone (I can't juggle the ball all day long by myself, can I?). Secondly, a benefit of doing this stuff is that I do get to know my 'neighbours' from Sunway SPK, and on top of that by organizing all these friendlies with outside teams......I have a chance to get in touch with these 'outsiders' too. And a chance to get to know inhabitants of this country.

Is our team and also those other teams a good representation of 'Malaysia'? Afraid not, we do have some Malays and one 'orang asli' (indigenuous) in our team, but the rest are of Chinese origin, save for the Korean dude ofcourse (but heck, he looks Chinese too). There is one team we have played against (MOB), and they all consist of Malays themselves, same can be said for Lazy Leg, another opponent, who are made up of Chinese only. One might wonder why this is such the case.....and for now the only answer I can provide to this issue is that people tend to stick with their own race ...... Ofcourse we all mingle, but it's a fact that when Chinese play together, they tend to talk in Chinese.......whereas when Malays play together, the language will be Malay. But mix them up, add some Indians into the mix too and the language used will be 'English'....strange, quite strange. Bahasa Malaysia (Malay language) is the 1st lingo in Malaysia, and English is officially the second one. Now, why do people use English instead of BM then? Beats me....I'm still trying to figure this one out. I do have my honest opinion about this issue but will tell you when I'm dead-sure.
