Diversity ‘a pillar of strength’

KOTA TINGGI: Malaysia’s rich ethnic and cultural diversity is the nation’s pillar of strength, said Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar 

“The reality is that Malaysia is multi-racial, multi-religious and multi-cultural. These should be seen as a pillar of strength, not weakness,” he said, adding that some foreign media tried to portray the multitude of races in the country as a weakness.
