this is KAK JEN !

My mother is half Chinese half Australian, my father is Irish. I was born and raised in Malaysia. I read, speak and write in Bahasa. I’ve never stepped outside Malaysia to study, I finished all my degrees here.
My mum is a Malaysian, she briefly left to Australia when Japanese came. She returned to Malaysia years later looking for her father who was in-prisoned. Luckily he was one of those lucky ones who survived the war. My father came to Malaysia to fight communist insurgents in 50s with British, met my mom, fell in love, got married, became a Malaysian citizen and never went back. And here you go : )
There is so much positivity from being mixed! For example, I have a muslim background now, because I was married to a muslim myself, even thou I taught Sunday school when I was younger with my mum. It makes me open minded and teaches me appreciate whatever mixed culture we have here. I can never understand why people look down upon others, because I believe that differences makes us stronger, so we should celebrate that. Back in the days, when I was at school, I never saw my friends as Malay, Chinese, Indian, I remember on the radio you’d hear Chinese, Malay or Indian songs being played side by side with no problem at all. I wish those days were back. I brought up my kids not to think about races, we don’t box our friends in, we are all Malaysians.
