Fed up with the misconceptions surrounding Malayalis (and their lungi-tying activities), Sidin points out an exemplary fellow-Mallu that he is proud of.
People often make fun of malayalis especially by sending that ridiculous email forward about how we do no work because we spend all day tying and untying our lungis. In fact many of us upright, honourable sons of Kerala soil (Malayalam: sow-yell) intend to fight this stereotype by going on a nationwide hartal sometime soon after this tea break.
Therefore I was most happy to read a recent piece of news on the Indo Asian News Service that will finally put to rest the myth of the lazy malayali. This is the headline:
Youth held with 31 fake passports in Kerala
