@cendawanita I am not sure what the point of this post is, but I want to share my perspective. Please do not blame specific ethnic groups solely, but rather the politicians and political parties that use ethnicity as justification to gain votes at the cost of the well-being of other ethnicities. Malaysia is not a country at war, and if you are Malaysian, please remember the five national principles. Everybody deserves to be respected without discrimination or harm.
