"This is how we should live in this country" — Malaysians fawned over the adorable interaction, and praised the friendship that was built regardless of background

One said, "Reminds me of those PETRONAS advertisements where the Chinese kid has a crush on the Malay kid", possibly in reference to the heart-swelling ad, Tan Hong Ming In Love by Yasmin Ahmad.

One TikTok user suggested that the boy may have got his charm from his parents.
"This boy's dad probably danced in front of his mum every time his mum sulks right?"

Another even asked for future updates from the admin of the video, "If (I) live long, I'm asking the admin to post their story when they're grown up."
