This letter is pertaining to the signage in front of the Malaysian Embassy in Washington DC, US.

In school, I learned Bahasa Malaysia was the national language and was told it would unify the country as a communication medium.

Therefore, I was very, very disappointed to see that even the national language is not used by the Malaysian Embassy and instead that another language that I was not taught back in school is being used. I wasn't aware that this language superceded our national language in importance.

Arabic is a great language but its not the national language. Why is it on the sign? What is going on? Dear Ambassador, please do something about it.
