Malaysiakini interviews Farish A. Noor

Released 16 June 2009


An Exclusive Interview with Dr Farish A. Noor

Racism, subtle or otherwise, prevails in Malaysia. From your doorstep up to the gateway of super corridors, you can never dodge the affirmation that you belong to a certain race and the social characteristics that represents that particular society.

In the interest of examining the dilemma of race relations, Malaysiakini spoke to Dr Farish A. Noor, political scientist and historian and currently a Senior Fellow at Nanyang Technical University (NTU), Singapore where he is Director of Research for the Research Cluster on Transnational Religion in Southeast Asia. He is also the co-founder of the Other Malaysia research website.
