The term “racial discrimination” shall mean any divergence, exclusion, prohibition or preference based on race, color, descent, or national or ethnic origin which has the purpose or effect of nullifying or impairing the recognition, enjoyment or exercise, on an equal footing, of human rights and fundamental freedoms in the political, economic, social, cultural or any other field of public life. Racial discrimination has been a problem more than a century in social history.
The discrimination of ethnic minorities has been a controversial problem, existing in society and workplaces for several years. The implementation of ethnic tracking and favorable discrimination in employment has actually increased the number of ethnic workers and gone a long way to mend the bridge of prejudice which has strained society for a very long time. Examples of racial discrimination in the workplace can be seen when people of a different color are treated differently to other people, based purely on the color of their skin. Racism has been in the workplace for many years, and should be abolished.
Where Malaysia is stand today was from the hard work of its multicultural society who come together as one. Notwithstanding the adversities faced, its people continue to live in peace and harmony for more than six decades. Everyone has the right to work, own a home and drive, no matter what of genders, races and religions. Despite Malaysia’s first-class employment standards, many people suffer from workplace discrimination in the public and private sectors. Shanti Ramesh (not her real name), 29 years old, a public officer relations officer from a property development company said her superiors and colleagues always spoke in the Mandarin language and it made her felt left out in their conversations.
They would sometimes converse in Mandarin during meetings and work discussions because majority of them are spoke in the same language. She said her employers did not concern the language issue experienced at the office as they expected that the other people would translate and inform to those who did not understand the Mandarin language. It can be frustrated and make her upset, especially when she tried to blend in with the other employees. And the worst situation is they would not acknowledge her existence when she was standing near them. Shanti also said that, it was happened to other colleagues also who did not speak the language. Moreover, she would be one of the last to receive work updates as she would be informed only much later. She said people were cold towards “outsiders” to those who is not in the same background and they did not try to accommodate new colleagues. She said that she joined the company only last year. Keeping a positive thinking, she said they could also be treating her differently because she was the new girl at the office as she just joined the company only seven months ago. She expressed incredulity as she never expected to face racial discrimination in an organization considered to be one of the “big boys” in the industry.
