It is pure discrimination, plain and simple. What that driver did, is sadly, a rather common occurrence and I am always disgusted by it. You could argue he was \"joking\" but based on OP, it has clearly went past any benefit of the doubt for it to be a \"joke\".\nHalf the comments here trying to justify the racism with things that mainly boil down to. -paraphrasing A) There's institutionalised racism in the other way. B) Nons have no special right\nIt makes the anger / negative attitude UNDERSTANDABLE, but not JUSTIFIED. Just like how we can understand a fear of small spaces (claustrophobia), but often not justifiable.\nHalf of the comments here stating things like 'now you understand how the nons feel.' Not to discredit your personal experience, I'm sure you have your reason to say that, and it might be your own personal experience, but saying that is akin to saying 'now you know how I feel' to a covid patient after recovering from covid. How is saying that helping anyone or beneficial? You didn't choose to be the target of racism, nor did OP.\nThe other thing I noted is that quite a few Malay commented how they used to be vocal about abolishing bumi rights and so on, but have stopped because they don't see a point in doing so anymore because it's a dammed if you do, damned if you don't situation. This just proves 2 wrongs don't make a right. The civil rights movement with MLK would not gain any success if it did not gain the support of the president of that time, a white man supporting a black man. Our common enemy are the racist. The supremacist. Not based on what we put under 'kaum' when we fill in our own personal information. How are we going to move forward to true equality when we keep showing each other hostility?The common malay are just as powerless about these policies. I'm not an employer or a landlord or a politician. All I can do to help is shut down racist comments made from my family and friends.

Keep that up and maybe some day, some one who actually has power decides the status quo needs to be changed. Small steps can lead to big changes.\nAbsolutely agree with your quote about the difference between us and government. That's why we should all come together.", "Racism is racism dude, stop justifying racism. You can't justify racism by one race is because of this or that. That's total bullshit.", "What you are seeing here is just people thoughts and facts, I don\u2019t think most of them are justifying the racism including myself.\nA lot Malaysian who are here are more exposed to western values and modern acceptable norms. Especially the woke culture.\nMalaysia is in a very different place and time compared to the west.\nOur affirmative action isn\u2019t comparable to others countries but make no mistake, discrimination is discrimination and it will create the same problem as those that are oppressed, no matter in lighter or heavier forms. What the OP experienced and others that commented here is the result of the affirmative action.\nThe country will never really heals unless people start talking instead of pointing fingers", "I agree, people can express their thoughts, negative or otherwise.

Same bullshit, applies to both. -> (Anectodal evidence, expressing thoughts, but generally in agreement that the driver is racist and therefore bad.)\nB: Chinese have special rights that malay are currently enjoying? -> (Trying to justify/reason that one party is more/less wrong to be racist due to the existence of \"special rights\" ; Usage of facts, the existence of special rights to try and justify racism.)\nC: We do, its called economic power. But the affirmative action policy is rotten and only benefits the politician instead of the bumiputera. -> (Went the opposite direction and used a common talking point of racist to justify certain racist policies)\nI agree with you as well, in regards to what OP experienced is the result of affirmative action, as well as how the country will never really heal until we stop pointing finger. But evidently, there are so many finger pointing here despite how \"a lot of malaysian here are more exposed to modern acceptable norms\". Hence my expression of dissapointment that there are quite a number of finger pointing going on here.", "If you asked me, it's better to stop reading these kind of post and just enjoy your weekend if op him/herself can't provide any proof to what they post because it is possible he/she is just rage baiting people.", "Now that you mentioned 'rage baiting', I do have to ask. I often see people suspect similar posts for rage baiting, is it a common enough occurence to warrant such a suspicion?\nSide note: OP's story seems believable enough to me, and I've seen it happen before myself. (That doesn't neccesarily mean this post is genuine). But IMO, I am much more dissapointed in the comments if anything, the post itself 'appears' genuine to me.Right?

Under this law, the government will also need to keep the national government debt to be lower than 60% of our GDP.\nFailure to keep aforementioned policies and criteria will mandate the government to answer to the Parliament.\nHowever, this not cause a change in government or a government shutdown like in the US if the Parliament decided to not approve the contingency/mitigation plan formulated by the government.\nThis is because the law only said \The whole Act can be accessed here:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-detail.php?act=850&lang=BI&date=29-12-2023#timeline\nPDF version:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/ilims/upload/portal/akta/outputaktap/1946989_BI/WJW23%EF%80%A21340%20BI.pdf\nThis whole Act, except section 37 and 38, will come into force on 1st of January 2024:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-view.php?type=pub&language=BI&no=P.U.%20(B)%20584/2023%20584/2023)\nThe Prime Minister, with the YDPA power delegated to him, has prescribe the authoritative text of this Act and its subsidiary legislation shall be in English:\nhttps://lom.agc.gov.my/act-view.php?type=pub&language=BI&no=P.U.%20(B)%20585/2023%20585/2023)Thank you OP:26561:Any other countries doing this?

The point he made about FM and PM not being held by one person over the years meant nothing?\nYou're saying if he didn't hold both of the portfolio or someone else had it, there's zero chance of reform or new laws being enacted.

Not to mention the violence in the West Bank that has NO Hamas, what about them?\nHamas is a Gaza only group that has no tanks or air military and Israel regularly gets billions of dollars for weapons specifically to kill Palestinians.\nThey are not nearly equal in scope of danger it's like comparing an army to a street gang. They could easily detect and find Hamas only but they're choosing to collectively punish the civilians. It's the Dahiya doctrine they punish the whole.\nThey also brutally tortured my uncle when he was a teenager and all the young boys/men they rounded up in our village in Lebanon with no charges. My uncle had all his teeth broken out of his mouth and his knee destroyed after 3 months when they randomly just let him go after having their fub.
