Another day, another interesting discourse on Twitter. 

A woman expressed her thoughts on Nasi Lemak being Malaysia's national dish and how she disagrees with the notion that one should associate a certain dish as a statue of national identity as it is an incorrect tool of representation.

At the end of the day, to each their own, ey?
