I was wondering why was the language name changed from Bahasa Malaysia to Bahasa Melayu? Some of you guys who took SPM in the '90s and early 2000s sat for the Bahasa Malaysia paper. What was the reason for the name change?

The irony is that today most of the original Malay words we learnt in school has been replaced with English-ciplaked words by changing the spelling of English words to make it "Malaynized". And that becomes "bahasa melayu".

And thus MILO stick pack in English became MILO Stikpek. shocking.gif

But it sounds too "liberal" and pokes the eyes of racists and bigots.
