Racism in Malaysia ?

Note to readers : I'm not trying to aggravate anything. Just my thoughts. Share yours too. If I'm wrong I'll learn and if I'm not maybe you will learn.

This is the answer to racism. It's all about being tolerant.

I'm not a racist. Definition of racism. I just 'hate' all races equally.

My face-offs with so call racists :

1. Primary school - Ppl started calling me 'keling' which pissed me off so much rather than fighting back, I went back and opened Kamus Dewan. Searched for the definition and smiled. That day onwards nobody dare mess with me.

2. Secondary school - When I was applying for higher post in any school board ( Prefect, the Scouts) , I failed miserably. The Malays are supposed to be the Head Prefect because on Fridays they had to recite the DOA. Troop leader for scouts were Chinese all the way and I at least managed to acquire the responsiblity as a Patrol Leader. Something better than nothing.

3. MMU - None actually so far. Aheemm. You must be joking. There's politics all the way to the top but nothing that concerns me. We just don't realise we are practising racism. Playing football among the same community is just not a way of forging ties. We take it way too seriously. A competition to see which race is superior in a game of football. *Duh* We study among ourselves. Of course you see some Indians with the Chinese and some Malays with the Chinese. [Have you seen Indians with Malays studying together ? ] <-- I retract that statement. We do have all races and cultures studying together.
