520 _aThe limousine-chauffeured tai-tai in Kuala Lumpur. The Penan hunter on the banks of the Baram river. The pak haji in Kota Bharu. Who is the real Malaysian of today? What are his hopes, his desires, his fears? Most of all, what does it mean to be Malaysian? In Ceritalah: Malaysia in Transition, Cambridge-educated Karim Raslan probes and explores the psyche of a changing nation as it hurtles its way through both history and economics. Crisscrossing the country, he asks the vital questions that need to be asked and points to the many inconsistencies that still exist in present-day Malaysia. Always personal, always thoughful, Ceritalah is a measured, insightful guide to an Asian dragon now redefining its role as the fulcrum of Asia. - Back cover
