    Thank you for shedding light on the continued racism that Tamil Malaysians experience. Might want to add to your video that a lot of Indians were brought to Malaysia through indentured slavery by the British and other colonisers.

    0:31 7% is the total population of Indians in Malaysia, not Tamils. Tamils make up approximately 75% of the total Indian population in Malaysia, which is only 7%. The fact is Tamils make up only 5.25% of total Malaysian population.

    Tamils once ruled s e Asia,but sadly s e Asian countries are not giving recognition to Tamils,the malay language foundation was founded by a Tamil, munshi Abdullah, but some Malay politicians are trying to close Tamil and Chinese schools,the real agenda of the muslims is to force Islamic education on non muslims tru national schools

      I might agree with you. Historically, it is possible to detect in the last two decades something never witnessed before in this Muslim but multicultural country, the emergence and growth of Islamism. Of course, the process, like all political and social changes, was not and will not be immediate, but gradual. However, as noted by your comment, this is a fact. In addition to the political aspect, political Islam is also accompanied by an ethnic factor, with an increasing position taken by the Malays in relation to other communities. This is not the place to discuss whether this is right or wrong, i.e. protecting the interests of the natives in relation to immigrants - but can we continue to talk about immigrants after many centuries after their arrival? However, it is undeniable that a process of this type in such a multicultural context, if not controlled and contained in time, can lead to social, ethnic, political and religious polarizations and tensions as well as, and this is the purpose of the video, nullify and mystify the legacy and the historical role of the different founding communities of contemporary Malaysian society.

      @@TheGeekySimo I was wondering if you could do a video on Arwi. It is the name of the extended Arabic script used for writing Tamil, sometimes also called a language exclusively spoken by the Muslim Tamils but it isn't a distinct language, but it definitely is very old, so old that it is what the first Muslims of the Indian subcontinent wrote their language in, which is just Arabic influenced Tamil. I'm getting ahead of myself here. There isn't any English based content about Arwi on RUclips and the ones that are there on the internet simply sound like they were written with feeling rather than facts in mind

    • @TheGeekySimo
      @TheGeekySimo  Год назад

      ​@@nsawatchlistbait289 yes, you are right. There is not too much material in English language about Arwi (as well as Arabi Malayalam).
      This is a real pity, as these languages are the only vestiges still present of the fourteen-century-old encounter between the Arab and Indian worlds. An encounter that brought with it a very different type of Islam from the Persian-Central Asian one, which over the centuries ended up being the dominant/mainstream one in India, penetrated from the northwestern borders of the Subcontinent.
      You might be interested in watching a documentary called 'Yaadhum' about Tamil Muslims, in which Arwi is also mentioned. Here is the link:
