The amount of sniffing own farts and the level of masturbatory explains why the majority of Malaysians get paid below livable wages.

to just bribe as they think im being failed for being white lol?? Is this actually a thing here??

White as Caucasian ? There were cases of bribery in the driving test in the past, occasionally reported in the news, but I think it was much prevalent in the past than in recent years as the MACC and the Transport Ministry cracking down hard on such practices, but it is not a thing just because you are white, lol.

If you are confident you are doing 100% perfect, what was the comment made by the officer or which section that you failed ?

What language do you and the examiner speak during the driving test ?

Let's put yourself into their shoes, and consider cultural exports and soft power to counter the information war and global dominance from the west. We here in major western media social platforms consumed the western narratives and living under the echo chamber too if viewed from their optics.

RFA is owned by the 'U.S Agency for Global Media' [1], and is a state-sponsored agency with yearly budget nearly $810 million (2022) [2]. RFA alone with approx. 253 staff received $39.5 million in 2021 [1], approx, not excessive but certainly something to run certain campaign to push their narratives. And then, there are Black Budget in their yearly government budget that estimated to be over $50 billion a year that are classified [4], usually for CIA and covert operations.

Try replace China with South Korea when considering the cultural exports and soft power dominance, the KPOP has certainly successfully influenced the Americans, but, the Americans have been doing it since we have televisions and movies, the spectacular Hollywood blockbuster action movies that always depict the Americans saved the world from all the odds, films like Transformers series, Top Gun, etc., that get to access and filming some actual US military equipment and compounds with the premise to always depict the US in a positive way, the DoD/Pentagon even has a department called DoD Entertainment Media Unit since the WWII. Some of the action movies were co-scripted from the DoD with movie studios [3].

Disclaimer: not shilling for CCP or China, but offered a critical thinking and perspective. What if the Truman Administration didn't withdraw the support to KMT, and KMT won the civil war and is the current government of mainland China and all the SAR including Taiwan, and the United Nations recognized ROC as the legitimate government instead of PRC, and the CCP only control the Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang and some remote areas near Russia. Maybe today China under the KMT is still controlled by military junta (Leader of KMT Chiang Kai-shek, and his families), Lee Teng-hui probably never make it into the office, a strong ROC most likely attract rivalry from US similar to today PRC, and that's certainly a problem for US and it makes good enemy for them to fund their military complex. Maybe Mao and Xi will be their allies. It's all leverage.
