What do you feel about Malaysia?

Questionnaire: Malaysians’ Aspirations

Please help me tell you what Malaysians feel about Malaysia

Its time for you to tell me what you think. I want to reflect what Malaysians are feelings and thinking about their country today.

I promise to keep the identities of those who respond strictly confidential. I will collate the responses into narratives and publish them in a series of articles that tell the story of “Malaysians’ Aspirations”.

This is not a quantitative survey. Its more like a personal interview with you that I will synthesize with other responses to paint a picture about the current feelings and thoughts about the state of Malaysia today.

Only answer the questions you feel comfortable to answer. Write as little of as much as you feel to the questions you want to comment on.

You can reply to this email or email your answers to murrayhunter58@gmail.com
