F You're willing to consume sambal petai and durian and gladly suffer the bloating and wind-breaking incidents. no way!! F You're exceedingly polite to the Mat Sallehs but you slag your own kind.

F You dive into a communal-style meal the moment the dish lands on the table only to hesitate at the last morsel of food on the serving dish.

F You forsake your loved ones for the all-important four letter-word: S-A-L-E. "Sorry, mum, I can't take you to Aunt Mary’s because I have to go to MidValley before the crowd."
