is one of the pluralistic societies that comprise of communities of
different ethnic, cultural and religious perspectives. The
prevailing state of affairs is as a result of the British colonial
social experiments. They happened between the 18th and 20th century
during which a large number of the Chinese and Indian laborers were
imported to the British Malaya. This is to enable the contribution
of the labor force in the various plantations and mines. Prior to
the British colonization in Malaysia, the population constituted of
majorly the Malays, non-Malay natives and the Orang Asli as the
aboriginal people. This is with Malays being the population
constituting of the majority. However, as a result of the British
colonists importation of foreigners as laborers in massive numbers
Malaya, the population was fundamentally altered. Following the
importation of the foreign laborers in larger numbers to Malaysia
during the colonization, the population of the Malaysian community
underwent an alteration that saw the Chinese formation of one-third
the population and the Indians forming one tenth of the total
population. Malaysia is known presently as one of the multi-ethnic
and multi-religious societies with an underlying objective dictated
through the provisions of the article 153 of the constitution.
Malaysia is one of the global most recognized countries with a
multi-religious and multi-ethnic perspective with provisions
supporting racism written in the constitution. The Malaysian
population constitutes of the Malays as the majority making up to
50.4% of the total population, Indian 7.1%, the Chinese with 23.7%,
and the indigenous population up to 11%.
