Our English Is Economic

I was viewing back my emails which I received years ago. And I found one email which is interesting, so I share it here.

Who says our English is "teruk"? Just see below -
Ours is simple, short, concise, straight-to-point, effective etc.
The English did invent the English Language, but they cannot use it economically when communicating their intentions.
Compare these phrases that Malaysians and Britons use to say the same thing.
Why make things so confusing and waste of money when you are on a long distance call. Make it snappy!
