Racial discrimination?

I read a blog of someone I know from college, and he was talking about some racial issues in UM. He was a Chinese and he was helping a foreign student to get into a nearer residential college to the faculty. The Malay office lady was acting indifferent to his attempts to ask if there were any rooms available. It kinda pissed me off when she gave him the cold shoulder. Sometimes I'm ashamed to be half Malay, thinking how some of the Malays have such closed minds. Ignoring people just because they're not Malay. It happened to me a few times too, because I'm very chinese looking. It's kind of amusing sometimes. They can give me the cold treatment at first, but when they find out that I'm half Malay, or Muslim, or when they notice that my BM is too good, you can really see the 360' change of attitude.

But then, being half Chinese ain't good either. The 'pure' Chinese don't like those who are 'bananas', yellow outside but white inside : meaning they look Chinese, but can only talk in English. But then, I don't think the Chinese here ain't bad. Most of them are willing to befriend me, so I haven't encountered any problems so far. And I do know a few other 'bananas' such as myself... only that they aren't mixed. I guess it's much harder for them cause they don't have an excuse of being mixed.
