for some reason(s), humans have the tendency to put themselves in a group. it is a way of telling others that i, me, you, they and we; belong somewhere. and the beauty of this is that, these groups or categories (pronounced as ke\te/go-ris\) were given birth by the humans themselves. they set up a group, then other humans join in and when you know it - they call themselves 'a' group. a klassikal example is an ethnic. just because you were born with a certain colour of skin, that does not truthfully mean that you belong to a certain ethnic group. i'm white, therefore i'm this, i'm not so white, there i'm this one, i'm less white and more to black, this means i am this ethnic. is that so? is that how the world works? or is that how HUMANS made the world worked? fruitful thinking friends. fruitful thinking.
now, comes the real piece of story - to be heard as a....lets make it.... 'Junkens'. How is it possible to tell others that you're a 'Junken'? to be seen as a Junken would less complicate things as you could focus on tangible assets around you to prove them that you are indeed one of the Junkens; you have your physical attributes i.e colour of your skin, or perhaps your attitude as in your daily norms, the way you 'sepak' (i mean speak) each other, also relating to the language used by all the Junkens. the simplest thing you could do is to show someone your money. perhaps the Junken money. but again, this suggestion is not so strong because others as in foreginers could have exchange their currency for yours therefore having with them your Junken money as well. just an example. OK. now that was an easy task right? to let others know (who are and who are not Junkens) whether you're one of them or not.
what about the earlier notion posted? - to be heard as a Junken? one suggestion is that, you and all other Junkens hold the same ideology, if you will. perhaps 1Junken for example. with this ideology in mind, we all strive for something in common, maybe to achieve harmony in a multi-coloured society or rather multi-religious society. but here is where the absolute problem lies; that none of us can have one similiar ideology amongst all. different ideologies would appear and they mushroomed against time. this is to tell us that it is not as simple as we think it would be - to get everyone to agree on the same ideology i.e notion, or theme, or even anything. hence, the next best thing to do, is to sort of these new ideologies before we could consider which is the best one to proposed to others or rather for us ourselves to hold upon.
secondly, after having all the options lined-up, perhaps we should have some check and balance system where we could evaluate these set of ideologies. ok. to cut short, lets just say that we picked one. one which appears to be the highest level a democracy could be (if and only if democracy was the chosen one). so, what's next?
