The M’sian Chinese are becoming arrogant
Muhyiddin Yasin (not the TPM)
I find this article totally absurd – The Chinese Owe BN Nothing by Kee Thuan Chye (see link http://www.malaysia-today.net/mtcolumns/guest-columnists/54560-the-chinese-owe-bn-nothing).
Political desire is one, but to condemn the whole BN like this is unbecoming of a PR journalist. Spinning the truth is not acceptable. Today the ten richest men in Malaysia, being seven Chinese along with two Malays and one Indian, show that this writer is riding on a political garbage agenda for the opposition.
It is practically hypocritical of this writer to blame BN wholly when the Ali Baba trade was introduced and enhanced by the Chinese with a bribe syndrome for their own material gain.
Kee Thuan Chye says “The Chinese owe it to BN that they were compelled to leave Malaysia to seek fairer opportunities oversea”. Really!!! What fairer opportunities are you talking about – $$$ or human rights? This writer needs to take his bullshit elsewhere.
The Malaysian Chinese are the biggest benefactors of the BN policies with their Ali Baba trade over the last 55 years and now they claim that they don’t owe BN anything. As a Malay, I feel ashamed because I should have aligned with the Malays and the Indians because we are not ungrateful people. For whatever the mistakes BN has done politically, it does not warrant such a statement that the Chinese do not owe anything to BN.
It is not a matter of owing, but the Malays and the Indians are not totally driven with $$$ agenda but rather a conscious one unlike how Kee Thuan Chye is portraying the exact notion and motivation of the politically twined Chinese community.
As much as I dislike BN and their policies, this Kee Thuan Chye is oblivious that for 56 years since independence, BN has ensured the tolerance, goodwill and stability for the community is sustained to a large extent with the Chinese being the biggest benefactor monetarily.
If this is the route a PR journalist takes, I hope that fair thinking Malaysians can see this is not the truth for regular Malaysians in Malaysia without a kiasu political Chinese agenda.
I am not a supporter of BN, nor do I condone corruption or nepotism that is rampant. But in the same instance, I can’t comprehend when truth is compromised and toyed around for political will like this idiot with a blanket statement like this to create instability amongst Malaysians.
