What does Merdeka mean? Does it mean freedom and independence? Is it about shedding the shackles of colonialism? About having the ability to shout inanities across the Internet without fear of punishment or persecution. Maybe it's about Janji Ditepati or Janji Dicapati or Jumanji Dita Von Teese. Maybe it's about sitting in front of the television and watching yet another wannabe auteur attempt a Yasmin Ahmad style advertisement, in grainy black and white, and complete with heart wrenching racial commentary. This week, on That Effing Show, we tell you just what Merdeka means to us. Selamat Hari Merdeka everyone.
