Compare them to us, we are far far behind. Everything is done based on racial consideration. From the government policies to the local authorities, every action is carried out with a racial overtone. Worst still, because of majority control, racial discrimiantion is prevalent in policy implementation.
Even politic is played based on race. You have political parties based on race and fighting for the rights of their particular race. Verbal contests on each race's rights are often aired. The people's feelings are aroused. They become racial and think along racial lines. And this perpetuates .....
