“You know what is the most impressive thing that happened to us today?”
“My mom and an aunt from Kelantan, both Malaysian, met at Turkey yet here they are speaking Tamil. Proud Malaysian here,” said the TikTok user.
The video has so far gained more than 40 thousand likes on TikTok. What can be said, the conversation between the two aunts should be emulated and the attitude of respect between the races should be maintained.
