If you must know, I'm a malay too.
This kind of thread, there will always be pro and against that will argue with each other throwing everything that they can get their hands on at each other. All of us are inherently racist to begin with because we always want to be identify with our race. And no matter how you perceive yourself as a liberal, non-racist or open minded, you're still deep down inside, want to be identified with certain race in your blood.
So here; take this spanners, crowbar, bricks, stones, sea urchins, cats, dogs, used condoms, used diapers and shoes, keep throwing at each other until your heart content.
p/s: I don't mean you alone bro. It's everyone of us here.
No you are wrong, I think most ppl identify themself with other who are culturally, interest, personality the same...
There are a lot of mix racial marriage, especially in borneo. I myself used to hang out with indians a lot, half my housematees are indians and i join indian football teams... Of coz these arent indians who talk tamil all the time, they are more like me liberal, tok kok and consume western media. It's something like why most boys dont mix with girls
But what I will admit is that in the absence of "really knowing each other", ppl might choose based on skin color because his brain is wired to think that that person is most similar to him and yield the best chance to be able to communicate effectively.
Now, i think the gov should allow inter-racial marriage without the need to convert.. This would remove the barrier and help race relations. Obviously we know this wont happen especially now the zealots will proclaim a holy war
