The family knows what's good for you

My Dad says, if you were to choose a guy to marry, ideally he should be:
*Melayu/Malay
*Sihat/Healthy
*Beragama/Religious
*Lebih tua/Older than thou
*Lebih tinggi/Taller than thou
*Tidak ada keturunan gila/Do not have mental case genes
*Tidak bermata merah/Do not have reddish eyes
*Tidak berbulu di dada/Do not have chest hair
*Tidak jalan menari-nari/Do not walk like John Travolta

My Mom says, it would be much better if the guy's also:
*Pemurah/Generous
*Dari keluarga sederhana/From an average family
*Hormat orang/Respects people
*Berfikiran terbuka/Open-minded
*Boleh dibawa berbincang/Can discuss and reason

My hippie aunt says, don't settle unless the guy is:
*Kelakar/Funny
*Berpengetahuan/Learned
*Pandai bawa diri/All-rounder
*Tahu menilai hidup/Knows how to live

My practical uncle says, better choose a guy who:
*Rajin baca suratkhabar kuat-kuat/Don't mind reading newspaper out loud... Cause then he would not mind sitting in the kitchen and keeping you company while you cook...

My five year-old nephew's vote goes for any guy:
*Yang berkereta/Who owns a car... Cause any guy with a car can drive and come visit him and let him be the navigator... cause you don't own a car and you don't drive in KL
