Hello Mr Haris
Edrei Zahari contacted me randomly through Facebook to inform me of Malam Bangsa Malaysia.
It is a pity I am not in Malaysia currently because I would have loved to be part of this gathering. However, I am glad something is being done about the growing problem we are having with some racist politicians who are ready to deny some Malaysians their rightful place in the country.
I wish you all the best.
