Behold Encik Raymond Crooke, a dedicated Tan Sri P.Ramlee fan who can not only remember the lyrics of most of P.Ramlee songs but sings and strums his guitar well, putting to shame many modern day Malays who can’t come even close to his prowess!
In this age when many Malays are shy of speaking their own mother tongue, the existence of someone like Encik Raymond Crooke is just a sharp reminder to these so called city Malays to slap themselves silly and reawaken to their birth rights.
Bahasa Jiwa Bangsa! Remember that all you modern Malays?
