Race and ethnic issue

Unlike my friend gummy bear, I do not have time to post every single day, actually more of nothing to write about. I shall write once every two days then.

To the main topic, I think that it is strange that while in the middle east, Africa, and Sri Lanka, people are having conflict due to difference in ethnic groups, while at South East Asia, most of the conflicts here are due to race. With the Malaysia election coming up in around a couple of weeks(actually a fortnight), there is going to be a tension in both the ethnic battle and racial battle. Barisan Nasional or BN, the government of Malaysia, will be having an ethnic battle with Parti Islam Se-Malaysia or PAS and a racial battle with Democratic Alliance Party or DAP. This battle will be rather different as the lives of Malaysian had been dropping and this will cause the citizens to side towards the oppositions, though not as much so that the opposition will win the election. I personally felt that... well I guess its not good to voice out my views here but I shall watch if the opposition gets more seats this time compared to 2004.

On a side note, can someone tell me how come 23/25 in biology test still results in getting scolded for not studying... sigh.
