Malaysians who profess many cultures, religions

and languages must become one nation under a
common umbrella. The many languages should
bear a common message because to grow, you have
to tear down walls and build bridges.
People cannot survive in their own little groups as
Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Christians.
Those who live in one nation must find common
ground.
