Have you ever seen those aunties in the airport who have MASSIVE boxes of goodies (usually keychains, small pouches, or bottles of the local magic sauce) at the airline check-in counter? Or the crowd hovering around the airport service counter saran wrapping their luggage? Or the person who gets stopped by customs for a dubious-looking jar (usually of sambal belacan). A lot of the time, they’re Malaysian — and they’re easy to spot!
If you’ve wondered how much of a Malaysian you are when you travel, then take this quiz to find out. Because while you can take the Malaysian out of Malaysia, sometimes you just can’t take the Malaysia out of a Malaysian.
Selamat Hari Merdeka!
