Synchronization for different opinions in Malaysia Multiracial Society: a mathematical exploration study

Malaysia is known for the multiracial and multicultural society who lives together harmoniously despite of the diversities. The tolerance of the people towards each others’ culture and religions has always been the subject of interest for social science researchers. The harmony is due to the phen...
