This is one good story that all Malaysian should have in their shell. It make us think but laughing all the way on the same time.
A review over typical Malaysians' attitude from the way they act on the road to the words they use. Great job to Lydia!
This is a short anecdotes about Malaysians way of viewing life. I have never read a book /column written by Lydia Teh, but so far, I find this book really entertaining. Based on observations from her, I realised, what most Malaysians taken for granted; about our neighbouring countries, our amusement in our life, traffic jams, the Internet, the buzz about blogging, Malaysia Boleh spirit! and etc. She jots down her anecdotes in such entertaining ways that it reflects our own stupidity.

dude, you need no comment! just hit it! (in a +ve sense..)
i love this book. It's just so malaysian
I practically rolled on the floor laughing!
Funny and endearing at the same time. If one needs an insight of being a Malaysian, then here it is!
This book is too witty and spicy. You can imagine either yourself, your siblings, your parents, your next-door neighbours, or anyone around you in the every single of chapter mentioned. HONK! is rude action and yet need to be ashamed doing it. But why need to shame, because there were a lot of interesting things should be loved and proud of! This book is #SoMalaysian :D
My definition of truly Malaysian I must say. Witty, with a sense of humour here and there. And whenever I read few of the stories, I can't help myself from saying. "Ah I couldn't agree more!!"
Only Malaysians can relate to this. Kadang-kadang rasa macam terkena batang hidung sendiri pun ada. Oh well, it's a fun and light read. If you're Malaysian, this is a must read.

I skip most of it . Figures .
Malaysians culture and something that I myself don't know fellow countrymen have in particular.
quite hillarious.

Lydia Teh is as Malaysian as nasi lemak, char kuay teow and roti canai. Born and raised in Klang, which is about an hour’s drive from the capital city of Kuala Lumpur, she still lives in this royal town which is known for its bah-kut-teh: herbal stewed pork consumed with copious amounts of Chinese tea.
