What can you tell regarding recent events between Malaysia and Indonesia?

I'm an indonesian, and lately, one can observed that things started to heat up between Malaysia and Indonesia. About two months ago, an official Indonesian martial arts referee, invited by Malaysian government, were beaten by 4 Malaysian authorities, without any clear reasons. The minister then apologize, days later, via phone call. (which some consider as not a proper apologize) Then days ago, one of Indonesian traditional song, "Rasa Sayange", were used by Malaysian government as part of their tourism program. The Malaysian minister stated that Indonesia won't be able to prove that the song were originally from Indonesia. In my knowledge, the song, which originated from Maluku region of East Indonesia, was considered traditional, that it's not patented or anything. I found out about these events from the news, not from any rumours. So what can you say about this? Does any of these news appear at your place? or do you have different perspective regarding these events?

1. But , please do note that NOT all or every malaysian is at the same low level as our current malaysian government and its servants. to further add salt to injury,..RELA or the police wannabes unlawfully arrested the wife of an Indonesian diplomat and a student. Rasa Sayang is just a song.And the origin still cannot be verified.But malaysian government should be more tact and diplomatic..however our current government is too overly arrogant. As for the Indonesian Karate referee assault. Theres a total news blackout on this.Even the chief polis ( bunch of corrupted son of a ..you know what) is keeping his loud mouth shut and keeps harping on " who burnt the flag in Kelantan ").Although 2 people was shot by police...it seems that a piece of cheap flag is more important than human lives.but when there is/are stories about Indonesian doing bad things,there is NO news black out about it. My perspective?..is that theres still malaysian who do NOT have the guts to overthrows this lousy government. However we have petitioned to the "agung" or king.
2. Malaysia can only bully small country like Singapore. But if Malaysia were to confront Indonesia, i bet they(Malaysian govt) will chicken out. Pls ask your Indonesia govt to sue Malaysia until to the World Court. You guys have very high chance of winning and give those bastards UMNO govt a slap in the face.
