message: This word is in the List of ethnic slurs where one condition for listing is used [...] in the English-speaking world. Why? Either it should not be listed there or this article should be extended to explain the usage in English speaking countries, I think. Tierlieb 22:36, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It should be listed there, because people in Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei also use English as the second language, and yet the term is also used. So, there is no reason why the word should not be included in the list. Hezery99 (talk) 02:49, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Use in English speaking countries 

message: hi sir,
in yr 1402 , when parameswara found melaka, he was came with indian kings from KALINGA kingdom , while parameswara tried to explain to the local sakai people (jungle malays), that they are from kalinga, but the stupit sakai people say kalinga as keling, they understood keling means king, then all of them bow to the kalinga kings, after parameswara killed by the malays out of jealosy, they changed the meaning of the kalinga -king to keling to labourer.

thread_title:  keling is king 

message: This is unacceptable. Before i edit this article years ago, this bigots claims that the word keling originated from sounds of chains which was made when they work on railways. The truth is the word keling is not offensive hundreds of years ago but only become offensive after arrival "modern indians". this must have got to do the socioeconomiy,behavior and attitude of newly arrived indians. TRUTH- Parameswara is Malay from palembang. Truth- long before Melaka,they were many Malay/native kingdoms like Langkasuka,Srivijaya etc.Truth- they were mostly Hindus or Buddhists before becoming muslims.Malaysian indians are creating fantasy alternative history that the nation were populated by indians before malays migrating from elswhere. Evan if those kingdoms were populated by indians they would have married locals nd "absorbed" to mainstream. The guy who claims parameswara is india is plain stupid and ignorant. ...but yes kalingga was once great kingdom which have strong influence over this region culturally and economicly at least.And kingdoms of south east asia were great UNTIL destroyed by the cholas(who contributed to nothing but destruction of civilsation)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sureshnaidu (talk • contribs) 13:54, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
