Fellow Malalysian Indians have also done it...Where are the Chinese and what will they do to support the shift?

Indians have made history on the 25.11.07. How about the Chinese? What means will the Chinese use to show support to the change for a better and fairer governance system? Is there going to be one in the first place, one may wonder? Will they keep silent like a backstage operator, as ever before, or are they more concern to take this opportunity to sell more raincoats, umbrellas and towels?

Personally, I think the idea of my fellow brothers and sisters, including those of our forefathers that "Business comes first; and with the grip of business, then come others" is no longer sustainable in the long run. In a multiracial society like Malaysia, there ought to be a balance and we ought to take a bigger interest in politics. Without our greater presence in politics, we will be deprived of a fair and good education for our children. Without the same, our survival, business and all other things will be tougher to come by.

This is the country where our forefathers came and grown their roots. This is the same country where we (at least most of us, i think) will cover ourselves with its earth when we die or the place where we spread our ashes after cremated. We definitely want to have a share of voice. not just a share, a significant and effective share of voice in this country of what is best for us now as well as for our children in the future; growing along side with the other communities that made up Malaysia. Please remeber, we are living on the future of our children. We are shaping the future.

Do you think our current share of voice is loud, significant and effective enough? No, I dont think so.

It is sad to hear some said that if things got worse, then move to another country. It is like solving a problem not stemmed from its roots. In fact, such ideology is selfish and irresponsible.

Needless to say, if we do not want to be treated like a second class citizen or immigrant race, we should not behave as one, but participate.

We need all the unity to make a country a better place for everyone, regardless of race and religion. We should fight to get rid off the bad apples or the bad apples will infected even the good ones and the whole apple tree will eventually die.

兄弟姐妹们, please stand up!
