Malaysia is a melting pot of cultures. There really isn't any place more colorful than this. We grew up learning to respect another person's culture and beliefs, and how being kind should be one of the fundamentals of the human condition.
And just like a pot, brewing its ingredients and spices, Malaysia too, has its own unique unified culture. The latest Maxis ad for Merdeka points out how we treat everyone, including strangers, like family and it is all the feels. It reminds me of how uniquely great our upbringing was.
