China VS M'sia (Chinese)

In the lift

Lady: Are you local?
Don't know how to react...
Emm..I am from Seremban,not KL,
Should I say I am local??

She asked again,
Lady:Are you local?
I look at her and...

Lady: Are you from China?
Me:No, I am local, I am Malaysian.

OMG...Am I look like I am from China?
Anyway,it's just a weird conversation

~Have A Nice Day~

God,

Please give me the strength to overcome my difficulty~
