INTRODUCTION TO THE PROJECT
• The purpose of this project is to study about how/what is the opinion/reaction/perception of the Malaysian society towards interracial relationship.
• Interracial relationship in this case refers to not only the relationship between two opposite genders, but also the relationship towards the same genders as well as towards different ages, towards other races than theirs.
In this project, we can relate it more towards quantitative than qualitative simply because we can calculate the number of participants and can estimate the result with an average calculation.

INTRODUCTION TO THE EXPERIMENT

- Judge too fast
- Too much influence by the social media
- Exposure to the outside world
