Facts About Thailands South Border Problems: Fact 7 - Forced To Disown Malay Identity

Thailand's Southern Border Problems

Fact 7: As if the place-name corruption was not enough, the Siamese
forced the Malays to disown their ethnic identity. The Malays are now "Thai Muslims"; their Malay language is now called Yawi (which is actually nothing more than yet another Siamese corruption of the Malay word Jawi, meaning writing in the Arabic script); Malay names are replaced with weird sounding instantly-concocted Siamese names; and so on and so forth. Friends, how would YOU feel if tomorrow you wake up bearing a weird sounding name (imposed on you), where your race does not officially exist and your hometown name metamorphosed into some laughable alien sound? Would you take it sitting down? Would George Bush of Washington be amenable to being called Georgi Bushev of Washingrad? Of course not. Obviously, Thaksin Shinawatra won't be happy being called Amitabh Shinawalla.
