Night Of The Living 1Malaysians
18 October 2009 | 912 viewsThis 1Malaysia thing is everywhere. There’s no escaping it. It’s all over the place.
It’s like Najib is trying to pummel you into submission by carpet-bombing you with 1Malaysia. Over and over and over again. It’s like brain washing.
The way this is going, we’ll all turn into 1Malaysia zombies sooner than you can say “Ketuanan Melayu”.
Its easy to spot the people who have caught the fever — they give you the 1Malaysia finger every chance they get.
Fingering unity: People in happy, happy 1Malaysia land are generous with their smiles. Except for the dude on the right (arrowed). He strikes a Travolta-esque pose worthy of Saturday Night Fever that shows he takes his 1Malaysia seriously. Either that or he’s an MIC member.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m all for unity.
It’s just that what they don’t tell you about 1Malaysia is that it is Malay-led unity.
I got no problems with that either, as long as the Malays who lead are leaders on merit, not solely because they are Malay.

It’s OK to have Malay-led unity if that Malay is farsighted enough to really lead for all Malaysians and not speak with a forked tongue. Until the affirmative action policies are removed in favour of UMNOputras, there can be no 1Malaysia.

Ur helluva writer mate, 1Malaysia is just a name, i don’t see anything much in it yet.

We need leaders. They will make mistakes, sure. But they should have the balls to admit it and rectify it or step down.
Say no to UMNOPutras. Dulu, kini, selamanya.

Khairy’s idea of Malay led politics and not Ketuanan Melayu is the way Malaysia should go. Only then can we aim for 1Malaysia. At the present moment, 1Malaysia is an empty vessel.

How to pronounce this 1Malaysia? One Malaysia or Satu Malaysia? So fucking confusing.

The consolation is they’re using the correct finger.
How did we become such that people need to be coaxed to feel good about one another? Come to think about it the rakyat don’t have a problem with each other. Only made to be so by Umno which now wants to appear as the matchmaker where before it was the divider and family wrecker.
So how to treat what it’s doing without scepticism? For a start where’s that biro chief who insisted on ketuanan? What about those Utusan diehards? How about Umno Youth? People who can switch fast may switch back faster. It’s all about power.
Aisehman, i am utterly bored with our blogosphere ever since you twittered.

Aisehman, Neil is right – you have to get back into blogging since it has really become dull without your entries.
