Data, you and I were talking about 2 different things. When I meant immigrants I meant the people who became citizens. The Malays that were already on the island are not immigrants. Those were the people who I was talking about, not newcomers to the island. That's why I mentioned about the island being a Malay island.
As far as immigrants being temporary guest workers that is something I was not referring to. I think that is what you were referring to. So I was talking about immigrants coming to the island to become citizens and you were talking (I think) about recent temporary people.
