Shait ïohsngew ba ki Khasi ki ong “Bud ïa u Khaw” kaba mut ba ka Jingïaleh bashyrkhei ha ka Jingim jong manla uwei pa uwei ka long kumno ban ïoh la ka bam. Ka Jingpoiwir-poiei nawei shawei ka dei nyngkong eh na ka daw “Wad ïa u Khaw”. Kita kiba la shlan ban kheiñduh thongduh ïa la ka Jingim da kaba thom beit ïa ka ding ka wait, ki dei kiba la jynjar palat eh ne kiba don ïa ka thong dohstar hapoh dohnud. Ïa ka duriaw Mediterranean sawdong ka dewlynnong Lampedusa, Italy la sngewdei ban khot noh “ka duriaw nguid briew” namar ka Jingbun palat ki poiwir kiba la ïap jyllop ha ka lynti phetwir jong ki da ki liengkynda ban ïoh ïuhkjat ha Italy, Europe. Balei ba wat hadien ba ki la ïoh jingtip ba kim thikna ban poi sha Italy namar ki lah ban ïap ha lynti ruh, phewse ki dang wan tuid beit da ki spah ngut manla ka por? Nyngkong eh, ka lah ban dei ka Jingduh-Jingkyrmen jong ki ha la kijong ki Ri ban wad ïa la ka bam. Kim ïohi ba yn dang don ka Lawei baphyrnai na ka bynta jong ki. Tang hadien kane ka daw “Wad Khaw” sa lah ban bud kiwei pat ki daw – don kiba ïapur khana shaphang kita ki Mafia ban ïoh nongtrei tad-dor ha Italy, ki Mafia ban ïoh pynrung bun ngut ki Muslim ha Europe, tt.
Ha kum kane ka khep, don arjait ki briew. Haba ïaphylliew jingmut bad ki katto katne ki khynnah samla: “Phi pyrkhat kumno shaphang kane ka jingwantuid kyrthep ki Poiwir?” Katto katne na ki, ki ong: “Sngewsynei ïa ki bapli! Kumba bun ngut ki Italian ki la leit poiwir sha America ha ka por jong ki nemsniew bad ka thma bah ha Europe, kumta ruh mynta kine ki Poiwir ki la ngat ha kajuh ka apot.” Don pat sa kiwei kiba ong: “Ym lei lei lada kine ki Poiwir ki burom ïa ka dustur jongngi. Phewse kumba ka long mynta, kine ki Poiwir kim kwah kren ïa ka Ktien jongngi, kim burom ïa ka dustur jongngi, ki pynjakhlia ïa ka jaka jongngi, tt.” Nangta don sa kiwei ki bym kwah ong ei ei. Tangba baroh kine ki kynhun kim lah ban kiar ïa u poiwir haba u wan tyrwa ban trei na ka bynta jong ki ha ka dor ba sngewbit ki trai. Haw ïapyrkhat! Lada ki khot trei ïa u European, ki hap siew nadong shadong katkum ka aiñ wat ha ki aïom shuti ruh. Mynta wan tyrwa trei une u Poiwir uba lah ban trei khlem da buh kyndon khlem da buh dor! Ka Jingshahtynjuh ka bakhraw!!
Meghalaya – mynshwa bad mynta ka huri hura wanrung kyrthep mynder. Ha Europe – ki Kotkhubor UK, kum “The Telegraph”, “The Daily Mail”, “The Sun” ruh ki pashat ïa ki mat halor ka Jingwanrung kyrthep ha ri Bilat – ki Kotkhubor Meghalaya ruh ki pynpaw ïa kata kajuh ka mat. Ha shisynpeit, kumno kat ka Ri Bilat (UK) kaba la don la kajong “Ka hima ha kaba ka sngi kam ju sep”, kan kylla tieng pynban ïa ka Jingwantuid kyrthep kita ki Bulgarians, ki Romanians bad kiwei? Kane ka kubur sha kata ka kyntien imsngi: “don ka por ïa kiei kiei baroh”. Dang mynshem bnai, ki Kotkhubor bad ki TV ki la pyntip shaphang ka Jingshahpynïap uwei u khynnah samla Italian, Joele Leotta (20 snem), ha Kent, London uba trei shipor ha kawei ka Restaurant “Vesuvius”. u “Mailonline” u ong ba kita ki sawngut kiba pynïap ïa u Joelle ki dei ki Lithuanians. u “The Guardian” u ong ba kita ki Lithuanians ki da kren jemdaw artad: “Italian crap, you’re stealing our jobs” (Italian pohjait, me tuh ïa ki jingtrei jongngi).
Watla kine ki kyntien haneng ki sngew khor shisha, phewse ka tyllong bah jong ka Jingïakajia kaba poi haduh u pud jong ka Jingïapynïap ka paw hangne: “tuh ïa ka kam jongngi, tuh ïa u khaw jongngi, tuh ïa u khiewja jongngi”. Ka Meghalaya ruh kam ïaid lait na kane ka Jingsngew, khamtam haba ïa ka Meghalaya la pynwanurlong kum ka Jylla ba la phiah noh na Assam da kaba pynshong nongrim ha ka Art. No. 244/244A jong ka riti-synshar ka Ri India; te kane ka Jingsngew ka lah ban kham jam pynban. Tangba, lada ki trai Jylla ki shu ïai thiah thai bad rieh tngen ha ka Jaiñkyrshah “Reservation”,“Scheduled Tribe”, te ka Jylla ka donkam nongtrei na bar lada ka hap ban kiew irat shakhmat. Namarkata, ki trai Jylla ki hap ban trei lut ïa ki jait kam baroh. Da ka Jingsneng tymmen “Kamai ïa ka Hok” ki Longshuwa ki pynkynmaw ïa ki Longdien shaphang kata ka Sotti-juk ha kaba ki Khyndai hajrong bad ki Hynñiew hatbian ki dang ïakiew ïahiar na ka Jingkieng ksiar Sohpetbneng, mynba ka Diengïei ka dang ïeng rasong. Mynta ka kamram jong ki Longdien ka long ban pynkhielung biang ïa ka Diengïei bad bteng biang ïa u Sohpetbneng lyngba ka Jingtrei hok ïa ki kam baroh.
Haba peit sha ka Jingsngewpher Jaitbynriew, kawei na ki daw ka lah ban long ba kita ki nongwei ritpaid kiba wan buhai shnong kim bud ïa ka rukom jong ki hehpaid – “Kim kren ïa ka Ktien jongngi”, “ki leh khyllah”, tt. Ha ki Ri ba la bun bha kita kiba wan nabar, ki tehlakam ïa ki nongwei da ka kynja “Ïateh-kular” kaba ki khot “Integration Agreement”. Lada kim pyndep ne pynbiang katkum kata ka soskular, ki lah ban duh ïa ka Kabu ban pynthymmai ïa ka Permit jong ki ban sah. Ha Italy, naduh u Lber 2012 kito ki nongwei kiba wan sah thymmai ki hap ban pyndep haduh 30 point hapoh 2 snem kaba kynthup ïa ka Jingtip ïa ka Ktien Italian. Kumne, ki kwah ba kita ki Nongwei kin kylla “i più perfetti degli italiani” (Ki bapaka na ki Italian). Kumjuh ha USA ki don ki Jingkylli shaphang ki Aiñ jong ka riti synshar ka Ri; ha UK ruh ki don “Life in the UK test”; ha Netherlands ruh, nalor ka Jingtip ïa ka Ktien Dutch, ki Nongwei ki hap ban burom ïa ka Jinglonglaitluid jong manla uwei pa uwei.
Kiba la kdew haneng ki dei ki Ri, ym ki Jylla kum ka Meghalaya. Watla katta ruh, ka Jinglong jingman jong ka Ri India ha kaba manla ki Jylla ki don la kijong ki Ktien ne ki dustur, ka ïasyriem shibun ïa ka Jinglong kum ki Ri. Ym lah ban mutdur ïa u khasi uba la buhai shnong ha Kolkata u bym nang ïa ka ktien Bengali; lane ha Assam u bym tip ïa ka ktien Assamese. Hato lah ban mutdur ïa uno uno u briew uba la buhai shnong ha Shillong naduh 1864 u bym tip ïa ka ktien Khasi? Ha ka Jingshisha ïa kiba la buhai shnong da ki spah spah snem, ym lah ban khot ïa ki ‘bar jylla’. Te, kaei kaba pynlong ïa u luk u lak Khasi ban leit khot beit ‘bar jylla’ ïa ki khun pateng la pateng jong u dykhar ba la wan ïalam da ki Phareng Bilat naduh ki spah snem ba la leit? Napdeng bun ki daw, kawei ka lah ban long ba kim tip ban kren Khasi! Tangba lada kim tip Khasi, ym lah ban ïanujor ba ‘ki Khasi ba dang sah tang da ki phew snem ha Kolkata, ki la tip Bengali tiak tiak’ katba ki ‘Bengali ba la sah ha Shillong da ki spah snem kim tip Khasi’; namar ba ka Ktien Bengali ne Assamese ki dei na kajuh ka thup-ktien Indo-Aryan kum ka Hindi. Kumta, u Khasi uba la tip malu mala ïa ka Bazar Hindi ha Shillong, un ym shim por ban tip Bengali ne Assamese; nalor ba ha Kolkata phim lah lait, ha baroh ki Jaka paidbah la thoh bad la kren beit da ka Bengali. Ha Shillong pat, nalor ba ka Ktien Khasi ka pher bak lybak na kiwei pat ki Ktien ha India namar ka dei na ka thup-ktien Austro-Asiatic lane Mon-Khmer, kaba pynlong ïa kiwei pat ki Nong India ban shem jingeh ban kren Khasi; u Khasi hi, u ïaleh ban kren nongwei wat lada u dykhar u pyrshang kren Khasi ruh. Ym lah tei pop tang ha u, namar ym shym la pynphriang ïa ka Ktien Khasi ha ki Jaka paidbah. Ka dei tang ha kine ki khyndiat snem ba la kham ïohi ïa ki Jingthoh Khasi ha ki babun ki Jaka Paidbah! Dang don Jingkyrmen ïa kiba kyrmen!
