Malaysians,be proud of our own country!!!
UNITED States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is impressed with Malaysia's developmental efforts, wants to make Malaysia a model nation for developing countries. Three factors that impress her are the country's democracy, effective government and continuous economic growth.
Clinton said this to Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin at the US State Department here on Friday.
This was a follow-up to the meeting they had when Clinton was in Kuala Lumpur last year.

News Of The Day-Michelle Wei The Winner
Michelle Wie gets 1st LPGA Tour win!!!!!
Wie ended her long wait by tapping in a birdie putt Sunday at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational, and her first tour title may finally quiet the skeptics who second-guessed her career decisions and questioned the fuss over a player without a pro victory.
Wie first qualified for a USGA event at age 10 and played an LPGA event when she was 12. She joined the LPGA this season and has begun to show the sizzling game that has made her arguably the biggest attraction in women's golf.
Wie played PGA Tour events when she was 14 — the biggest stage there is. She was criticized at the time for not focusing on women's events. She turned pro in 2005 before even finishing high school.
She ignored the criticism and, at 16, she was poised to become the first woman to qualify for the men's U.S. Open before her putter failed her. Shortly after that she began to lose confidence and went into a long, painful slump that was made worse by a wrist injury that ruined her 2007 season.
She has slowly worked her way back, earning her LPGA card for this season, gaining credibility with players and emerging as a star at this year's Solheim Cup, going undefeated in four matches.
"It just taught me so much about handling that situation," Wie said. "And actually, I wore my Solheim shoes today. So I felt pretty lucky."
