As a Negara-Bangsa, we still debate if we are Malayans or Malaysians First or Sabahans First of Sarawakians First.

I think we should STOP and accept that if we re-FRAME such a reality; we are all part and parcel of the same nature and reality. All our blood is RED in color.
My teacher at GWU, Dr. SH Nasr helped me articulate the multiple layers of human reality of existence; as one way of human personality differently:

1. Nation-state reality. Therefore we are all Malaysians. None of us carries a Yellow Passport. it is all Red in Color too.
2. We each have a cultural heritage. Traditional culture we inherited.
3. We each have a personal faith tradition and an inherited belief system.
4. We each have a Personality-type, against one's DNA code-heritage which we cannot change but can learn to modify, or adjust but not much else.
5. Finally, we all have a conscience which we inherited from our Maker-Designer which makes each unique, different with our own Personalized Dignity. That cannot be denied by anyone ever or taken away from us!
