Courtesy ...

In the name of chivalry, these two malay moslem teenagers did something noble no one had ever done for me ever. In a country mired with racial slurs. racism, race hatred and authority brutality, these boys gave up their train seats for me...and stood for almost two hours until their destination. Such an act of courtesy towards a non-moslem is unheard of in Malaysia.

For someone like me who can still do a half-marathon with ease, I thanked them for their exemplary kindness and felt pleased for making my journey a memorable one.

These boys will one day grow-up and become fine Moslem gentlemen, that much I know.
God bless them.
