We, Malaysians, are too fearful.
 When a man walks past us in a lonely street, we automatically think that he is out to rob or rape us.
We install grills on our doors and windows and build 6-feet tall walls around our house.

We, Malaysians, are too cynical.
We think every policeman out there receives bribes.
We believe the government is out to get us.

What can go so wrong in a country?  
How can we no longer feel safe in our own homes? 
How can we become so distrustful?
