I am by no means an expert, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna sit quietly and pretend Msia isn’t fully hypocritical in its talks about Gaza right now. I have a Gaza refugee in my family. The last we spoke, I got the impression he is done talking with Malaysians. I don’t blame him.

Stop going out of your way to justify our exploitation of refugees in Malaysia. I hate how Malaysians talk smack about the communities we oppress here, but at the same time completely rely on exploiting their labour as vulnerable workers without rights.
