writing to express my concern about the rising tide of racism and intolerance sweeping across Malaysia.
When that happens, we lose our ability to collaborate and create a better future. The spirit of cooperation that once defined Malaysia is under threat, and I refuse to let it disappear without a fight. I asked my mother how they managed to connect so easily, and she told me that they were children of war, born in the 1940s, who had witnessed and experienced tremendous suffering.
What touched me most was how the group rallied around my mother when they learned she was fasting during Ramadan . It was my fault – I had miscalculated the dates, and Ramadan started on the third day of the trip. When my mother passed away on March 14, 2014, her friends from the trip reached out with sincere condolences and offers to help during this difficult time. Some even asked if I needed assistance with the cost of my last-minute flight home, knowing it would be extremely expensive to purchase on such short notice. I was deeply touched by their compassion and kindness.
