    Need we say more? Malaysians today showed our leaders what it means to be truly Malaysian, tak kira bangsa, agama dan budaya. Satu Malaysia, Satu Visi!

    i like knowing that there're true muslims here who don't really care where they pray as long as they just pray and believe that God is not only in the masjid but also in their hearts. Sangat terharu. I love knowing that after all these racism fights i've witnessed, but when it comes to fighting for a better future, we all unite. How it's supposed to be.
