  1. Most call centres in the UK are now using indian staff based in India to save on costs.

    They wouldn't have those opportunities if their english skills weren't good enough.

    So even in the UK it is happening too.

    Oh trust me THEY REALLY ARENT GOOD ENOUGH, many times had to call them couldnt understand a word they said, now call centres are relocating back to the UK due to many complaints.

  2. ...

    My wife is a Yala Muslim. Yala is in the far south, but the incidents there are not as bad as all the horrible news that's been coming out of Pattani. We both want to go somewhere safer and better for our children.

    ...

    There are two sets of laws in Malaysia, one for everyone and another layer added on for Muslims. These additional laws regard general behavior, who they can marry, how their children are educated etc. You may arrive in Malaysia and find you're already in violation of marriage laws.

    muslim non citizens are not subjected to islamic laws, no jurisdiction over foreigners, so there is no violation, you see indonesians entering casinos, arab league patronising hooker clubs, quite a favourite destination for the middle eastern

    not so hardcore as you think, muslims citizens of the country can marry anybody if the spouse is a muslim or becomes one, their children can go to any school

  3. My guess is that it was a clandestine and disguised attempt to stir up bigots.

    But treating it in good faith:

    Assuming you are an English speaker, and speak neither Thai nor Malay, you will find Malaysia much easier.

    Assuming you were brought up in a commonwealth or former colony country like the US, you will find Malaysia easier.

    Assuming that you are willing to drive in a disciplined manner, you will find Malaysia less frustrating.

    As a Muslim, you may find Malaysia restrictive, as I think you will be subject to Shariah law.

    I'd not like to comment on crime statistics, but I don't think Malaysia is particularly safe. But then, nor is Thailand.

    SC

    Shariah Law is applicable only to Malaysian cItizens of muslim faith

  4. how do you know that non-malay non-muslims are discriminated against? Q&A or hearsay , CNN or BBC

    btw, the topic is about a the OP who is a muslim contemplating to move, not about what you intend to ask

    Also sat next to a Chinese Malay, always remember his name, Jimmy Stewart.

    The flight was from KL to Australia, his daughter was already in Australia, and he and the rest of his family were looking at relocating.

    He was less than complimentary of the country and its practices.

    Best of luck to the old guy, hope he made it.

    as far as i know, there are no chinese in Malaysia by that name, and surely no malay person.

    if you put two nouns together , than would make a half blood hybrid, even if the passenger was a hybrid, i dont think there is ever a chinese-malay malaysian citizen called Jimmy Stewart

    Most of the usually successful other races in Malaysia would thank the government for not offering them those mediocre privileges that they dont depend on. Surely there are one of the few like Jimmy Stewart who hold grudges against the government for some petty discontentment

  5. The comment earlier about Boomie (Bumi, or Bhumi) is referring to the protectionist laws in Malaysia giving rights to Malay Malaysians above and beyond other races in Malaysia. It is abhorrent in many aspects and really does stop Malaysia really pushing forward. It's not about being a Muslim in Malaysia, it is about being a member of the Malay race. However, the Thai's version of it is based upon protectionist laws in favour of the Rich families which is just as abhorrent.

    Thank you. I understand now. I know there are several (sometimes quite small) ethic groups in Malaysia which the country takes pride in preserving, but I also know that these ethnic groups don't have the same status as Malay Malaysians.

    But I don't think this will affect my family and I (if we move there) because we will be expats.

    The whole point is that yes it does affect you if you are not Malay. Massively.

    No, your perception of the massive disadvantages being foreigner living in Malaysia is very shallow, the ethnic malay muslims regard islam as of higher importance than race, and the Yala muslim wife can easily blend in with the muslim community easily without a change in lifestyle. There are many thai people in Malaysia, religion aside, some are born in Malaysia, some domiciled by marriage, majority migrated from southern Thailand and are muslims.

    99.99% of street tomyam restaurants are owned and operated by southern thai muslims

  6. Man, I think that the proper way of dealing with this guys is to follow the example that Myanmar is giving us right now, I mean how many childs, monks, teachers , common persons and soldiers must to get kill before somebody do something really effective, I mean , if they see themselves as malays then kick them out to the sea, nobody is forcing them to live here.

    The Deep South is their homeland, so what you are suggesting is Ethic Cleansing which is a War Crime. Perhaps it is in the best interest of Thailand to grant an Autonomous Administration status, as has been done in some other countries with similar conflicts.

    don't forget its not the thai buddhist bombing people to death across the border of malaysia in malaysia.

    the border is the border.

    stop them muslims from comming here to do their Ethnic clensing.

    their religious fascism has to be held back at a certain line and thats the border.

    they are no thai buddhist bombing people in Malaysia! and the thai muslims are residents and citizens of Thailand..

  7. english is not a difficult language to learn

    That's a ridiculous comment to make. English isn't exactly simple and easy to learn, especially the grammar. For Thai people who speak a tonal language and have very simple grammar in their language it is quite different and difficult to learn.

    As for the girl... Ask her where she learnt English. tongue.png Get to know her more and see if you trust/believe what she says.

    people who are not so bright think everything else is difficult and assume everyone is the same
