I noticed the Indians here in Malaysia, especially in the food business, when the exchange of moolah takes place, you’ll see them almost-beggar-like stance, where they use one hand holding the wrist of the hand that is giving the cash, and the receiver does the same too. I wonder if this...

Alleged Malay-Bashing Complaint Letter
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] First of all, I think this is bullshit! I believe this was created by either “enemies” of this couple who runs an auction business or some politician (most likely in UMNO) trying to divert the issues faced by this dodgy party by creating a fake letter to stir racial...

Malaysia’s Racial Profiling – Sense of Nationalism
posted by Gallivanter
[ad] I believe it’s about time that UMNO, MCA & MIC are abolished. Yes, racial tolerance is something we cannot ignore, but instead of tolerating each other, we must learn to RESPECT each other. With UMNO playing the “leader” of this sinking ship, the only way forward...
