Malaysia English vs Britian English ...7 K0 y, C8 |7 m5 d1 ] e) s$ A
* m e( r4 V8 |, C) v) Y+ ptvb now,tvbnow,bttvbWho says our English is teruk. Just see below - Ours is simple,short,concise, straight-to-point, effective etc. The English did invent the English Language, but they cannot use it economically when communicating their intentions. Compare these phrases that Malaysians and Britons use to say the same thing: So, why make things so confusing and waste of money when you are and a long distance call.
