"You know, when we were young, the Malay, Chinese and Indian would sit together and share just one apple," my dad was saying.
Take a look now. You don’t usually see this happening anymore. Groups of different races are all huddling by themselves in separate corners. Where has all this "perpaduan" gone to?
Dad says since Dr. Mahathir book, The Malay Dilemma, unity among us has been growing weaker. What’s with stuff like "Oh, you eat pork. Stay away from me". I’m not saying all are like that, just some.
Like on Friday, about 12 Malay guys were against two chinese guys from my school. Both chinese guys lost their lives. One died on the spot, the other got hospitalised and from what I heard, died too later on. It started when a group of Malay guys playing firecrackers in school threw it at a group of chinese guys. The chinese got angry and whacked one of the Malays til they broke his leg. Later that day, that broken legged Malay called his older Malay friends (adults) and beat up two of the chinese guys. Now, there’s gonna be another fight coming on where the chinese will bring in their gangsters.
Over the years, prejudice against other races has been growing stronger. Lots of racial attacks could be seen on the news and the government boasting that we are able to live in a multi-racial country in harmony. My foot.

People are always saying bad things about the ite. Saying about which races should be avoided in the ite. Prejudices are everywhere -.-. And the newspapers can say whatever they like. We can choose to agree or not to if it’s an opinion. lol. Anyway a malay motorscylist banged into a chinese man’s car and demanded for $$. Where got logic? And this is true. And the motorcyclist said some racist stuff..so unbelievable..pfft
