Malaysians, like people from many other countries, often take great pride in their national identity and culture. However, during the World Cup, there is a noticeable shift in people's outward expressions of identity. They may temporarily adopt the attire, flags, and symbols of other countries participating in the tournament, such as Brazil and Germany, to show support and enthusiasm for those teams.
Depending on the country they are supporting, they can own a passport that is of 2 countries.
England and Malaysia becomes Mengland, Germany and Malaysia becomes Gerlaysia, Brazil and Malaysia become Mazillian, Argentina and Malaysia becomes Arlaytina, England and Malaysia becomes Mengland.
A kit is then given to them to welcomes them to their newly acquired citizenship, which includes the passport and several football themed goodies.
