Is this new ?
Ever since 9/11, the security agencies of every country on this
earth - (except for Africa and Middle-East nations) - had taken
extra pre-cautionary measures to process traveller with Arabic
names, features and skin tones.
The previous Malaysian Prime Minister Mahatir had taken this
opportunity by opening Malaysia's door to encourage Arabs to visit
Malaysia, since they are not welcome in most Countries -
particularly those in the circle of the Western World.
Not only are Arabs coming into Malaysia in large numbers, but
Middle-eastern Oil Money is moving also into Malaysia, and is
helping Malaysia to recover from the economic crash.
Why adopt a paranoic and alarming view to an otherwise normal and
natural flow of events ?
