The Global Malay



Met Azman from MTDC (our landlord) and Dr. Faridah (UPM) who also attended the NBIA Conference. They been around for 3 days ago and been eating Malaysian food everynight. They met a few Malaysians in Seattle.

I had the opportunity to have dinner with them and it was a really good dinner.

Md. Ali, Ana, Puan Zaireen, Me, Azman, Cik Lah and Fazillah

Met a few other Malays the next day and I must say they are doing well. A throws out the argument that many Malays cant survive without the Government to support them.





Haji Nor. A fellow Kelantanese. Stayed back from his studies to capture opportunities in the US.









These Malays tend to have similar characteristics, they had left Malaysian after the Asian Currency crisis in 1998 . They were effected tremendously by the crisis and had come to the States to start fresh. They are educated, intelligent and determined but they left Malaysia because we are society that do not accept failures.


There failures is a big lost to our country. It was a bigger lost when these Malays leaves our country because they represent Intellectual assets that is needed for our future.



Leo, their pet is high tech. He has a chip embedded inside him to identify his ownership. Mandatory for all pets in Seattle.
