Friendship

I always consider myself as being open when it comes to picking friends
This is obvious considering the lack of qualities in my current lot of associates

To give example, I am the first to befriend the only chinese boy in my sekolah kebangsaan
This is big considering that he was the only chinese boy there and I am Penang!
We clicked because of our fascination of jets/plane and the english language.

I went to a secondary school of which majority of students are non Muslim.
When I was form 2 and 3, I am the only Muslim boy in the class.
I make good friends with the other, some I still keep till today

My university life is a bit mixed but not as bad as my form 4-5

My working life is as exiciting.
It is so exciting that I am grouped as "under represented minority"
I am challenged and I do challenge back, vice versa
I put tension in the environment through my honest input and feedback
I have friends that can take strong comment
My experience in office has resulted in this new term - my best <put your friend race here> friend
It works wonderfully
I am not saying it will resolve all our country ailment on race relation but it work for me and a few of my friends

In summary, friendship is build on trust, honesty and never on race, skin color and religion.
It will flourish as long as you can take each other banter - regardless how bad it is
Things I spoke to my friends are too blasphemous to be printed, so I will refrain my self from doing just that.
