I apologized for the bad thing West Malaysian said to East Malaysian.
Truthfully I really hate that kind of thing.
West and East is just an ocean apart, no difference. Malaysian is Malaysian.
Author
I, myself used to it after so many years. hehehe
but newcomers might feel offended.
Well, it’s all because of lack of understanding.
Best if everyone can just stop, sit down, listen and understand each other.
Same here! I apologize on behalf of those who may sound harsh in any way. But note that NOT ALL west malaysians are like that π Not me, at least! Btw, nice post *thumbs up*
Author
hahaha you being here ma π you sure understand what i mean hehehe
Ya, i agree with you, not all XD
Im stay at penang,actually i hope penang and malaysia can separate.i love penang more than Malaysia. Malaysia is SUCK!!! >.<
Author
technically, Penang cannot break from Malaysia but Penang might need to refer to Malaya Federation Agreement if it decides to leave the Malaya Federation.
Malaysia Federation is made out of Sabah Sarawak and Malaya.
Haiz…no hope!
Author

Miao I’m sorry that you have such bad experience when you first come to west malaysia.. not everyone’s like that ya.. my university mates (especially during my Foundation year) came from different ethics and cultures as well… after 7 years, most of the gang still in contact with each other and we tend to have gathering once in awhile.
sure there are many idiots and racists in our country, but let’s not give up just yet π

Author

The only thing that I find different and fascinating is the traditional outfit (which I couldn’t wear) and the 7th Day Adventist. i never knew we had that until I befriended some Sabahan. lol
Other than that, I find that we are basically the same. Well, at least I am. haha
Author
hahahah then you have to seek a Borneoan opinion on that XD
oh… what d u think? haha
Oh yes, I am still fascinated with the tanglung flying we saw last time. i forgot about that. We don’t see it here in Semenanjung. oh, and some of the food. hehe
Author
hahah the flying tanglung is illegal 1 XD
that’s why you don’t see it in the West. lol
