Dear Editor,

The reply from MSA to critics of the Malaysian sketch is not at all satisfactory. Maybe MSA has no intention of misrepresenting any group of people back home, but certainly it has provoked some students here. The ignorant belief of MSA that the sketch has no social implications, obviously deserves some criticism. In the case of the hawker's son I do understand how he felt after having being offended. I therefore call upon MSA to apologise sincerely to the hawker's son and others.

Joe Tan.
