Hi Renuka,

Glad to hear that the indian people in Malaysia follow the culture & are probably over zealous. Also Malaysia has a concentrated large population of Tamils which helps to retaining the culture.

Btn, I can see you are probably one of the flag bearers of our culture, the best of our traditions. !!

I am referrring to the west bound migrants where the Indians are spread all over.

I agree, some the first gen migrants follow the culture more than the people in India. I know some of them in USA follow this to the letter & spirit.

However when you look at the next gen - the kids born & brought up there - completely in the western world, they slowly move away from the roots !!

Most of the next gen kids dont visit the temples there let alone follow the culture.

So in 1 or 2 generations, all is lost.

Cheers,
JK
