The Question of Ethnicity
by Amalia
When you have lived in Malaysia for few months, you know what I am talking about.
Yes, Malaysia is a multi-racial and multicultural country. Everyone knows that. But I find it intimidating that countless forms, both online or paper versions, belonging not only to government organizations but also commercial companies, contain the question of ethnicity. What does it have to do with anything? Tell me, why does a telecommunication company want to know your ethnicity? How about an internet company? What’s their purpose, really?
Yes Amalia ! I heard of Elahe that in Malaysia, Malay people get many advantages ! so strange for a country that is multicultural !
