1. Herds
In schools, in college and also at work place we can see people group (esp Malays) by their home town, school or even popularity. Home town for example, I'm from Kelantan and you're from Kelantan. Lets be friends but we shall not mix with other states. I honestly rarely see these people mix around with non-Kelantanese. It goes the same to people from boarding school or even same courses. What's wrong with mixing around? Is it gonna tarnish your reputation?
2. Lalang
Here's the scenario - a girl messes up with another girl from a group and just because of that the whole group hates that girl eventho they don't even know her.These people are indecisive. When their 'ketua' hates some one, the whole group will hate. When the 'ketua ' declare peace with that person, so does the whole group. What happen to individual preferences? The lalangs are also in offices. They normally kipas bontot your bosses and talam dua muka to you and your collegues.
3. Knowledge
Ever heard of people with information is powerful? But not giving out the right information to the right person is not cool. Cam mana Melayu nak maju? Simple things also must keep it a secret kan? Its like I'm not sure is it chapter 1-3 for test but you surely know its chapter 1-4 for test but refuse to tell me when I ask just because you are insecure. or just plain jerk The thing is don't keep important information to yourself. Information not important a.k.a gossip nak pulak cakap kan.
4.Envy
Envy is good but too much envy sampai nak guna witch craft ape cerita? Here's a story I'd like to share. Years ago my uncle had a small laksa store opposite his house. Beside his store there was another store selling goreng pisang. His laksa was famous among the residents there. Suddenly for a week he had no customers. Pretty odd eyh? Then one day when he was not selling laksa, his regular customer came and asked where he have been missing? the shop was never open for a week. Long story short, the goreng pisang guy envied him to the extend I don't know how he made my uncle's laksa store looked close to his customers but infact its open.
I think that's it for now.I'll continue about Malay later if I remember. daa.

herds and lalangs belong in the same category
exactly! sgt agree!!
but kan, dat that in malaysian studies, raja iskandar said, u r a malay if ur act a malay (and with other 3 criterias: x ingat).
then, if we dont actually do what u said in that 4 things, we're not a malay even if by law, we r? hihi!
im reading malay dilemma for msian studies(written by mahathir)..u guys shud read it then u'll know y malay have all this typical characteristics..im a malay coz im a muslim in msia..other than that sy pakistani..haha bole x xnk ngaku?
p/s:oops br igt x amik lg inai dr u :P
illy: yeh? so does talam 15 muka cam dewa2? agak la. maybe satu tu i shld letak talam 15 muka cam dewa2.
adek: its just a law to differentiate bumi and non bumi. no? because I personally think we (malays) are just bunch of mixtures from indon or thailand. So if you ask me, i think the real bumiputera are the orang asli.
fa: bole2 perasankan diri sendiri. oh yes i still have your inai.
well its just my observation for the last 9 years. its different when we live in a social environment with 90% malay and a social environment with 50% malay.
racially, i'm a a malay..ethnically, i'm not
