"In June of 2009 the United Nations changed their charter which was reflected in their Durban Review Conference global summit on combating racism, which now states:
6. Reaffirms that all peoples and individuals constitute one human family, rich in diversity, and that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity an rights; and strongly rejects any doctrine of racial superiority along with theories which attempt to determine the existence of so-called distinct human races.
Thus the United Nations will no longer use the word "race" as a cultural determinant; instead, we will all be considered a part of one race: humans.[93]". Wikipedia.

I was on to it long before the UN as the tagline for my blog was up some two years ago!!
Is 1 Malaysia ready to accpet it?
More relevant is whether UMNO & PAS are ready to embrace this universal coceptual breakthrough or is it Ketuanan Melayu forever?

We are all of 1 race, the Human Race
I thought of you DPP, when we were discussing the concept of the human race as you have it as your tagline.
