Racial Harmony???

Following are some parts of an article written by blogger steadyaku47 titled ".... ......" and I strongly believe should lead us, Malaysians to do some thinking and to analyse the real situation in front of us!

"Do you Chinese know that we Malays do not say that a Chinese has died?

The same Malays that is privy to the best education, almost all business opportunities from the government and the same Malays that asks them to speak in Bahasa, write in Bahasa and learn in Bahasa!
The tension for the Chinese and the Malays lies just below the surface. Real and not imaginary".
