Unity In Divercity

Have we not learn from nature as how we can be complementary to make our life wholesome inspite of many differences? Malaysian politicians seems to have failed in this sense. Some are still insisting on ethnic superiority giving no respect to others, suppressing the importance of diversity.

Thank God we have a sounding message from Raja Nazrin recently. Allow me to quote it from The Sun November 20 Pg 2

1. When we think of social fragmentation as good rather than bad, something is awfully wrong.

2. We must reject radicalism and extremism of all types.

3. I know this as a Malaysian for what has built this country and made it strong are the contributions of its different communities.

4. The need to forge a community of people with shared values and interests remains paramount.

I hope Rakyat Malaysia will reject "tribalism" and support a government that believed in a multiracial, multilingual, multi cultural Malaysia. If I am not mistaken Malaysian politicians are trying to create a ruling class, what we called the "nobles" in olden days. They hope to rule the nation forever from among themselves and their children, leaving the rest of the population as the peasants or commoners, who should submit to them in totality with just some benefits for their livelihood.They wish they could turn the enforcement bodies into their instruments to suppress any opposition to their ambitions.

In order to shatter such unimaginery dream of our politicians, Rakyat Malaysia must make good use of their intellect and their right to vote, removing any politician that they deemed to be detrimental to the harmonious community in Malaysia.
