The people of malaysia_colourful,peaceful,friendly

INteREstING PLaceS here

Just merely 46 years after independence in 1957...from a small mining town to a big city with the world's highest Twin Towers ..this is Malaysia

When the world is fighting against each other , when people of same race are annihilating each other , when people of same religion are fighting against each other and people of same colour killing each other ....you see people 23 million people in Malaysia ...of such diverse ethnicity , culture and religion ..having coffee together in the Kopitiam ( malaysian version of Cafe ), enjoy the splendour of city life together or pampering themselves in Malaysia's many beautiful isles, sandy beaches, and rich tropical rain forest ...visiting frens of different ethicity and doing many many things together ...

I am so proud of Malaysia ...because everyone of us ...Malays, Chinese, Indians, the Aborigines and other minority groups know the importance of living harmoniously , the blessing of having each other around and the friendship that has bonded us all of the Malaysians

Thats Malaysia , thats truly Asia !

I believe that if people in Malaysia can co-exist harmoniously even though they have such diverse culture , ethnicity and religion ...the other countries too can do it !

if I could reach ...higher ...

After reading all your tips, I realized what I missed when I visited Asian countries. This time, Malaysia will be first on my list to visit next. Will start collecting your tips for future use. Regards from Freddie
