MALAYSIA CURRENT SITUATION

59 years of independence

People focus more on conflicts besides of positive relations

amongst Malaysian.

Most people think that..

A society that has a different cultures, languages, religions,

will be detached and isolated.Ethnic differences will create competition between ethnic

groups.

Ethnic minority will underestimated by ethnic dominant .

The mass media often report ethnic relations in Malaysia ina narrow perspective.

CONCEPT OF UNITY IN

DIVERSITY

1. Unity in diversity in various perspective: Social Psycology- sense of oneness' that cross

physical and psychological separation, which

includes also the metaphysical.

Antropologi-sosiologi - how people manage andorganize existing social differences among them.

Ontological – religious perspective > God

Consciousness >the desire to create peace and

stability

HOW 6AN WE DEVELOP SENSE OF ONENESS?

THE HI4HEST VALUE……..WILL UNITE US
