I live in So. California and Kuala Lumpur.....present tense : )
Malaysia isn't as bad as the A-Rab countries or the Arab diaspora due to the fact that 1. it is a dictatorship (this has also kept many Arab nations in line) and 2. Malay culture, while hostile towards Chinese and suspicious of westerners, has not been "proletarianized." Of course, if the Malays develop a diaspora, things may be different.
