We have more news on the Malaysian desi protest.

Here is an Aljazeera news clip. [Via SM]

On a side note, I am upset that Al Jazeera has been denied broadcasting rights in the US. They seem to be on par with other Major TV channels at least when it comes to quality.

On par? Seriously? They are far better than a lot of stuff here in the States, and being essentially run by a bunch of ex-beeb’sters almost match up to that channel too.

Well I did not want to make that call after watching a 5-10 minute news report. They are good, if I saw them for an extended time, I might be able to make a better judgment.

I have lots of Indian-Malay friends here in the states, they tell me the horror stories of racial discrimination back home to the Indians and Chinese living there. I’m surprised that Aljazeera(welll….not really) were a little shy on the details of the hardships that the Indians are facing, they’re refer to the discrimination just as a “claim”. But IT’S A FACT.

To be honest with you, I have heard of random stories about this, but the part that minorities have been constantly put down for a long time now, comes are a surprise to me.
