Country: Malaysia

 

It's a multi-cultural, multi-racial and multi-religious country... Three main ethnicities - Malay, Chinese, Indian, plus the indigenious people (aka Orang Asli)... These minorities number in the dozens (if not hundreds). We're friendly people, the country's a food haven and is (or at least was) the world's No. 1 producer of semiconductor chips :idea2:... ...:snore:

 

:lol:

 

 

We also had the world's tallest building for a few years- the Petronas Twin Towers. Things to be proud of: We all live in peace despite our differences culturally, racially etc; and successfully overcame communist terrorists/guerillas that threatened to overturn the government and turn our country into a communist haven early on in our history when we first obtained independence. :smug:

 

Interesting facts: We don't wear shoes at home, the Malays and Indians traditionally eat with their fingers, the Chinese have a special days to commemorate the dead and celebrate the August full-moon, while the indigenious people of Borneo have harvest festivals in May :o

Or is that :dozey:... ... :snore:

Sweden.

 

Tradition that's very famous is Midsummer. That's the time of the year when Swedes rises a big pole decorated with flowers that supposed to represent the male reproducting organ and and we sing "little frogs, little frogs, are funny to see" and the dance around it acting like frogs saying "kvack, kvack, kvack".

Then there's some food like sill (raw pickled fish) and a lot and lots of beer and hard bread and fresh potatoes..

 

See? Swedes are perfectly normal. :D :rolleyes:
