Datuk Bollywood??

Few days ago, i came across an article about the datukship awards on the Sultan of Malacca's birthday last Saturday.....for everyone who is still blur......Every time when our Sultan has a birthday, datukship is always given out....normal lah for anyone who originated from Malacca and has done something to promote either our country to the world or their contribution towards our country........or if you happen to be married to royalty or even a person who has Datukship status....then you're next in line......

I was suprised that the Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka (DMSM) was awarded to Shah Rukh Khan.....

MALACCA: Popular Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan is among 77 people to be conferred the Darjah Mulia Seri Melaka (DMSM), which carries the title Datuk, in conjunction with the 70th birthday of Yang di-Pertua Negri Tun Mohd Khalil Yaakob today.

That's right....SHAH RUKH KHAN!!!!!

I was, like, WTF?????

The the Chief Minister(CM) and explain that Shah Rukh Khan's movie, One 2 Ka 4 has scenes of Malacca.....i watched it before i just glance through the Malacca scene very fast.....dunno if you call that "promoting Malacca"....For further details, please ask Tun Daim Zainuddin....

Pretty dumb if you ask me....simply giving out Datukship...

oh wait.....Malaysia Boleh!!! lolzzz everything also boleh

If that's the case of "promoting the country", there a lot more candidate for Datukship in the near future that are not Malaysia....


1) Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta Jones in Entrapment


If anyone deserve Datukship, is either one of them.....this movie has scenes of KLCC twin tower from start to finish.....compare to One 2 Ka 4......few scenes here and there only......but i think that won't be the case as Sean Connery is already knighted.....but, in Malaysia, you can be Sir Datuk Seri Thomas Sean Connery......and who wouldn't like Datuk Catherine Zeta-Jones......kinda lame...huh??

2) Chow Yun Fatt and Jodie Foster in Anna and the King


This movie was filmed in Malaysia, all the supporting cast are mostly local actors, can say buatan Malaysia. Even the premier was in Malaysia.....not only both of them should get Datukship, also the people behind the movie, the directors, producers, all the actors, and the person suggested the place......What??? correct what......this movie got Oscar normination you know?? It's like Lee Chong Wei winning silver in the olympic.....almost the same what.....Datukship given to second best.....no offences to Datuk Lee Chong Wei.....

3) Jackie Chan in Police Story 3: Supercop

Michelle Yeoh has it, for sure Jackie Chan's Datukship award will come soon.....This movie promote KL tower, Bukit Bintang and the Golden triangle.....the Malaysia scene was running about half the movie......Not enough of "promoting" time...i don't think so...

I think they are more worthy to receive Datukship if the criteria is "just" to promote Malaysia.....Im promoting Malaysia through my blog and you don't see me getting any awards of Datukship.....lolzz....

PS. I dont think Datukship is equvilant to a knighthood......it's like a malay proverb, Bagai langit dengan bumi (it's like comparing heaven and earth)
