[edit] Disagreement

I disagree that Malaysian is used to solely describe the ethnic Malays because Malaysian basically refer to those who have Malaysian citizenship of any race - e.g. Malaysian Chinese and Malaysian Indians. It's like saying your Australian or American. The Malays do not only inhabit Malaysia but also Indonesia, Brunei, Singapore, southern Thailand and wherever they exist in this world. So, you'd only make it confusing for others to distinguish ethnic Malays and Malaysian citizens. So I've removed the part where it refers to Malay people on this article. --Fantastic4boy 23:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree, every legal citizens of Malaysia are called Malaysian. Ryan_Aldren 08:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
