The more the Indians feel offended with it, the more the ones responsible will rub it into you. Lets face it, people will only try to upset you more if you get upset. So dont get upset. Take a cue fr the Chinese, at some point they are also berated but they choose to ignore the idiotics because the Chinese know where they stand and whats their worth. Instead every individual indian parent should take responsibility to educate their kids about how the caste system was originally and that it was not a heridatory system. We hv to acknowledge the mistakes done by certain parties like the brahmins and higher castes who turned into a heridatory system in order to benefit their generations. And that even though we in Malaysia deny the caste thing is no longer in practice, it is actually vy much practiced in society, marriage and even employments, and political parties. IF we want people to stop using the 'p' word, then we should stop practicing caste system and show the dungus that we are people of integrity rather than making all this noise and being treated like shit. Lets hv some dignity.<br /><br />Indus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20518519.post-20112027399892582172011-03-17T02:57:59.399+08:002011-03-17T02:57:59.399+08:00When a country "disrepects" a particular...When a country "disrepects" a particular community and wants to have its way regardsless of the fact that the impact on the minority community might be adverse because of the fiction elemt in the book-then its time to part company.The Malay community [not all] has become so arrogant not to listen to the view of the Indian community and cancel this book. By taking out parts of the book, wont help-the main theme of the book is racist and breeds segregation which is a bad policy.J Vincentnoreply@blogger.com
