If you say Malaysia is very “bad” why don’t you just ask SBY to remove all 2 million legal/illegal TKI (Indonesian migrant workers) working in Malaysia to return home to Indonesia?

Forgive us God, Indonesian government must investigate this case, I think Malaysians often torture workers so the Indonesian government must take steps to stop this, otherwise it will happen again...

The employers were captured and charged with causing grievous hurt and rape. As usual, the Indonesia press do not tell all...

I hate people who mistreat fellow human beings. Torturing or raping women are not acceptable in any culture or religion.
I am not a racist but many incidents of torturing or raping of maids are committed by Malaysians who are not Malays (or Melayu) or Muslims.
One more thing — in Malaysia, the term Malay (or Melayu) is based on race or bangsa and not ethnicity or etnik as in Indonesia.
Thus, a Javanese, Acehnese, Buginese, Batak, Minangkabau and Sundanese are known as Malay (or Melayu) in Malaysia.
If you (a Javanese from Indonesia) insult a Malay (or Melayu) in Malaysia — you are actually insulting a Javanese Malays also.
