children from different races and religions played and studied
in harmony. At that time my family lived a stone s
from Ismail’s. And no one was bothered that Ismail was a Malay Muslim and Iwas an Indian Hindu——we just

When I was twelve, my family moved to Johor. Ismail s family later returned to their village, and I
touch with him.
One spring afternoon in 1983, I stopped a taxi in Kuala Lumpur. I

we can truly be, as William Shakespeare once wrote, 44we happy few, we band of brothers".
