As Malaysians, our strong Malaysian spirit is often the glue that binds and unites us. A strong Malaysian spirit may be our similar love for food or sports. Or, it can also be defined as the sense of pride we feel towards a fellow Malaysian for his/her applauding achievements. Such is this Malaysian writer, Claudia Tan, whose novel is making its way to Hollywood.
