All ads taken from Berita Harian and Straits Times, 2nd March 2008

Examine the prices on these ads carefully. One set is taken from a Malay paper while the exact same ads, with exactly the same products, are taken from an English paper.

Recommended by Anonymous Coward: "This would be viewed as illegal discrimination in most developed countries. I hope that some of our MPs could take action against this kind of discriminatory pricing. Imagine making one group of people pay almost twice as much as their fellow citizens!!"

No To Superficial Racial Harmony

Luthien talks about racial harmony.

how will you answer this question when asked: do you have friends of a race other than your own? if you say yes (and a loud defensive one at that because you think i may accuse you of being ethnocentric), now answer this question: how often do you talk to your non-(your race) friends, how often do you go out, and how involved are you and they in one another’s lives?
