Part V – Racism is Not Dead Yet
The title might offend some people immediately but I am just going to tell my story the way it actually happened and it is up to you to make your own judgement. Racism has been a sensitive issue in a multi-cultural and multi-racial country such as Malaysia. Most of the time it is only subdued due to certain reasons and circumstances but it is never gone. Not even with the new One Malaysia vision from the new Prime Minister.
Anyway, back to my interview session. The next interview that I went to was at a Dutch software company located at the KLCC. This is where the development requirements for Asia are done and I must say, it is not a bad company to work for.
My first interview was with two young and energetic middle management staffs and from the 2 hour session, there were two questions that caught my attention:
-
Would you have any problem reporting to someone who is younger than you are?
-
Would you have any problem working with staffs who are all Chinese (referring to Malaysians who are from the Chinese race and not people from China)?
