Tun Abdul Razak – Mao Tse Tung : 1974

 

• Malaysia-China 1974

• Almarhum Tun Abdul Razak memulakan perbincangan dua hala (Bilateral) antara kuasa-kuasa veto PBB iaitu China pada 28 Mei hingga 2 Jun 1974. Subky Latiff ketika itu wartawan Utusan Melayu merupakan jurnalis Kerajaan yang mengikuti rombongan Tun Razak ke China. Presiden China iaitu Mao Tse Tung ialah insan nombor wahid Tanah Besar China yang ingin berjumpa secara rasmi dengan Tun Razak pada 29 Mei 1974 di Beijing di Istana Presiden. Ini merupakan petanda paling sentimental dan penuh sejarah, kerana Tun Razak satu-satunya pemimpin Negara Asing yang memecah protokol lazim Kerajaan Koumintang China. Pada protokol lazimnya, seorang pemimpin Asing perlu berbincang dengan Perdana Menteri China, barulah diberi perkenan mengadap Presiden China; tapi ini tidak berlaku kepada Almarhum Tun Razak.
• Kenapa? Inilah yang dimaklumkan oleh penulis dan jurnalis China sebagai kuasa baru dunia Melayu merdeka. Inilah kuasa sebuah Negara Islam yang meletakkan Agama Islam Sebagai Agama Persekutuan. Inilah karisma Almarhun Tun Abdul Razak Hussein. Mao Tse Tung terkesima dengan kekuatan minda dan hujah Tun Razak ketika di Persidangan PBB lagi, dan melihat prestasi kerja seorang pemimpin Melayu yang begitu bercita-cita besar dan berazam menghapuskan pengaruh Komunis di Bumi Melayu.
• Selepas gagal Rundingan Baling pada 28 dan 29 Disember 1955, Pair Dragon dan Pair Phoniex telah memanggil Chin Peng mengadap di CCC Beijing. Chin Peng selaku Setiausaha Agung telah diberi AMARAN HUKUM MAUT, jika tidak boleh mengurus kemaslahatan Pasti Komunis Malaya secara baik dengan pemerintahan semasa. Nama Tun Razak dan Tun Dr. Ismail ialah dua nama yang sering disebut oleh Mao Tse Tung sebagai pakar pemikir regim pemerintahan Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj iaitu Ketua Menteri Persekutuan Tanah Melayu ketika itu.
• Rupanya, perjumpaan selama 80 minit antara Tun Razak dan Mao Tse Tung ialah gesaan supaya diadakan usaha untuk penghapusan isme Komunis dan pembatalan PKM di Malaysia, sehinggalah takdirnya hanya pada 1989 menjadi realiti kepada tanahair ini. Satu lagi, hajat terpendam Mao Tse Tung ialah Malaysia dilihat sebagai sebuah negara contoh yang boleh memberi manfaat besar kepada kelompok minoriti Muslim China yang bilangannya 40 juta orang.
• Inilah permulaan aktifnya PERKIM dan pendakwah Cina-Muslim. Diperkukuhkan lagi dengan lawatan rasmi dan perjanjian Bilateral tersebut. China pada tahun 1974 ialah sebuah Negara yang belum maju secara fizikal, tetapi mempunyai kekayaan metafizika dan manusia yang begitu baik. Sejarah tamadun perajaan dan kerajaan yang lama dan ilmu-ilmu khas tentang Dinasti merupakan perkongsian dan pertukaran maklumat antara kerajaan. Di sinilah diperbaharui Wa’ad antara Ma Cheng Ho dengan Sultan Mansur Shah, dan dimaklumkan kewujudan Pair Burung Hantu kepada Almarhum Tun Razak.
• Pertemuan dengan Mao Tse Tung berakir dengan penuh cerita sejarah yang dalam dan diberikan perhatian khusus oleh Tun Razak. Yang tidak menjadi rahsia kerajaan dilaksanakan dan capaiannya hingga hari ini. Yang masih Rahsia Kerajaan kekal rahsia, hingga Subky Latiff pun tidak boleh mempersoalkan darjah kepentingan kerahsiaan berkenaan. Subky Latiff kini Pengarang HaprakDaily.
• Kemudian pada 31 Mei 1974, Tun Abdul Razak memberi ucapan meraikan Perdana Menteri China Chou En Lai di Dewan Rakyat Peking, seterusnya mengadakan Mesyuarat Antara Kerajaan pada 1 dan 2 Jun 1974, sebelum mengakhiri lawatan rasmi Negara Malaysia di Tembok Besar China di sebelah petang.
• Bermula daripada peristiwa ini, bermulakan Gerakan Perang Besar-Besaran Pasukan ATM dan PDRM di hutan belantara Malaysia untuk menghapuskan kegiatan subversif Komunisme. Tahniah dan Syabas Almarhum Tun Razak kerana dikaulah insan pilihan Allah untuk memulakan langkah pertama yang TERBAIK daripada langkah seribu.
• Kepada pemimpin Melayu khasnya UMNO, Pas dan PkR hari ini; ingatlah bahawa Agenda Membatalkan PKM telah lunas. Agenda membenam ideologi dan isme Komunis masih belum terlaksana seperti rancangan Tun Razak, Tun Dr. Ismail dan Tun Salleh (IGP Kedua), serta Tan Sri Rahman (IGP Ketiga).
•  
• Namun kini urusan semakin rumit kerana ramai benar rakyat Raja yang dah “lupa akan perjanjian Tua” antara Pair Burung Hantu dengan Raja Melayu.

Talibarut Komunis

 

The Road to Merdeka: Persekutuan Tanah China

I know it is an odd title. When I say China, I do not mean the Chinese. I mean the country, China. This posting contains facts that many, including those from UMNO, do not know.

Before I go on, I want you to remember this important fact throughout this posting:

 The Alliance won 51 of 52 seats in the 1955 General Election.

For a brief period during the Second World War, Sumatera was taken away from the control of Java and was placed under the Japanese Administration in Malaya. However, after Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed, the Japanese mooted an idea to Sukarno for Malaya to be included in a declaration of independence by Indonesia BEFORE the Allies could retake both Malaya and Indonesia.

On 13th August 1945, Sukarno and Drs Hatta went to Taiping on their way back to Jakarta from Saigon and met up with Ibrahim Yaakob and Burhanuddin Helmi to discuss on the idea of Malaya joining Indonesia Raya. This idea was not new to Ibrahim Yaakob. A Bugis by descent and an idolizer of Sukarno, Ibrahim was a member of the Kesatuan Melayu Muda (KMM), a radical nationalist group formed in 1938 to overthrow the British by force and unite Malaya with Indonesia under the banner of Melayu Raya. This meeting in Taiping was also attended by one Major General Hirokichi Umezu of the Imperial Japanese Army. The Imperial Japanese government at the time recognised the leaders of Indonesia. Ibrahim was also a Lieutenant-Colonel in the Japanese Giyuugun (Volunteer Army) that was formed in Java. Before the Indonesia Raya idea could be pushed forward, the Japanese government surrendered to the Allies two days later.

Sukarno however continued to push for the Indonesia Raya concept but told that the inclusion of Malaya would not be easy as they would have to fight against two major powers of the day: the British and the Dutch; and asked Ibrahim to continue his fight for the inclusion of Malaya from Java. On 19th August 1945, together with Hassan Manan (a graduate from the Sultan Idris Teachers College, and fellow KMM member), Ibrahim, his wife and brother-in-law were flown to Jakarta in a Japanese military aircraft to escape the British.

Together with Mokhtaruddin Lasso, Burhanuddin Helmi then formed the Persatuan Kebangsaan Melayu Malaya (PKMM), a republican association, on 17th October 1945, taking over where Ibrahim’s KMM had left. This got PKMM at loggerheads with the British. PKMM was then joined by other Jakarta-leaning members such as Shamsiah Fakeh, who led PKMM’s women wing, AWAS (Angkatan Wanita Sedar); and Ahmad Boestamam who led the youth wing, API (Angkatan Pemuda Insaf). Onn Jaafar, who was then a District Officer in Batu Pahat, was against Melayu Raya/Indonesia Raya as he did not want Malaya to be subsumed by a Javanese master. It was during this period too that Kiai Salleh, a respected religious leader from Batu Pahat, rose to fight the Communist Party of Malaya’s Bintang Tiga menace.

When the British formed the Malayan Union in 1946, PKMM together with its fraternal organisations API, AWAS and BATAS; and the non-Malay organisation, Malayan Democratic Union (MDU), quickly supported the move by the British. PKMM, being republican in nature, supported the Malayan Union because it was opposed to the idea of a Malaya ruled by the Malay rulers while MDU supported the idea of an immediate citizenship for all immigrants. As history has proven, intense pressure by UMNO caused the British to abandon the Malayan Union. The Malayan Union was then replaced by the Federated Malay States in 1948.

It was also at this juncture that the British offered independence, but was rejected by UMNO. The reasons for rejecting this offer were that the Malays were at that time a minority in Malaya; the Malays lacked education (they were given elementary education until Standard Six); the Malays were also not involved in the mainstream economic activities. It was not until later, when General Sir Gerald Templer objected to the British offer to Malayans for a self-rule Malaya for its assistance in fighting the communist, that UMNO declined that offer and went instead for the independence of Malaya.

Where was PAS during this time? PAS was embedded within UMNO. There was no PAS. PAS came about when none of the supporters of the founder of PAS was appointed to the respective state’s legislative council, following the formation of the Federated Malay States. They left UMNO probably in 1951, and then formed the Pan-Malayan Islamic Party (PMIP) in 1955 to contest in the first General Elections where they won one seat.

Despite having seen that UMNO and MCA could set aside differences and work together in the first Kuala Lumpur Municipal Council Elections in 1952, Templer was quoted by the Straits Times on the 19th May 1953 to have said the following:

 “It would be a tragedy, not only for Malaya, but for South-East Asia, if power was handed over so precipitately that the remarkable progress now being made in all direction is thrown out of gear, to say the least of it, quite apart from the communal difficulties which might, or would arise.”

In November 1955, after the victory of the Alliance inthe first General Elections, Tunku Abdul Rahman who was the Federation of Malaya’s first Chief Minister, went to Jakarta to call upon President Sukarno. The Tunku put forth Malaya’s idea to pursue an independence from the British. Enter our long-lost character Ibrahim Yaakob, who went to meet Tunku there, pushing forward his ambition to have Malaya’s independence within the framework of Indonesia Raya.

Let us fast forward a bit to the formation of Malaysia in 1963. Although the Constitution of the Federation of Malaysia gained the consent of the Yang DiPertuan Agong on 29th August 1963, objections by Indonesia and the Philippines over the inclusion of Sabah and Sarawak, and the conduct of referendums in the two states by the United Nations pushed the date further to 16th September 1963. It was also a coincidence that 16th September is the birthday of Lee Kuan Yew, the then-Chief Minister of Singapore.

Indonesia, already opposed to the independence of Malaya in 1957, was further aflamed by the inclusion of Sabah and Sarawak into Malaysia. Sukarno was influenced to teach Malaysia a lesson by D.N Aidid, Leader of the Indonesian Communist Party, and by the Indonesian Foreign Minister, Dr Subandrio, who went to China to meet its Premier, Zhou En-Lai. Subandrio, an alleged communist, was very close to Premier Zhou, and discussed the possibility of lynching and splitting Malaysia, and requested for support from China. The plan was for an Indonesia Raya and a greater China where all Malay island nations (that possibly include the Philippines as well) would be under Indonesia Raya, while all mainland nations including the Peninsula of Malaysia would come under China.

Indonesia at the time was supported by the communists in the Soviet Union. This episode saw the withdrawal of Soviet support (the Soviet was against the confrontation with Malaysia) and a cautioned-support from China. Supporting the Indonesians then would be a positive move for China as Indonesia had the second largest communist party outside of the Soviet Union. Chinese arms started trickling into Indonesia by 1964. Had it not been for the help from the Commonwealth Forces, Peninsula Malaysia would probably be a province of China now. Chin Peng, who was residing in China then, also ordered the CPM members to assist the Indonesian armed forces against Malaysia and the Commonwealth.

The rest, I would say, is history. Ibrahim Yaakob resumed the name Iskandar Kamel and was made a Minister under Sukarno rule. After the attempted coup by the communists in Indonesia failed, he withdrew from his post and died in Jakarta in 1979, aged 78. He was listed on his tombstone as Iskandar Kamel Agastya (IBHY), Leftenan-Kolonel Purnawirawan NRP 26217. In 1973, the late Tun Razak allowed him to return briefly to Malaysia. In an interview during that visit, Ibrahim Yaakob admitted to being a double-agent for both the British and the Japanese.

Chin Peng, in an interview in Singapore, had said that the CPM, as a fraternal organisation of the Communist Party of China, enjoyed full support from China for the establishment of a satellite-communist state in our country. He was given the task to fulfill three levels of achievements in the 1950s, namely the:

1) Support on the local level,
2) Support on the national level, and,
3) Support on the international level.

He achieved the support on two of these levels: Local – he had strong support from the Chinese community. He had support on the International level – the support from China. What he did not have in the 1950s was the support on the National level – there was no support from the general Malay population. Hence, the only way for the CPM to remain relevant was to incite the non-Malay population to work against the Malays, who were portrayed as being the political masters of Malaya. Does this ring a bell? It is deja vu all over again in present day Malaysia.

If you remember at the beginning of this posting, I asked you to remember this important fact:

 The Alliance won 51 of 52 seats in the 1955 General Election.

In 1955, the Alliance won the first General Elections of the Federation of Malaya. Then, the non-Malays were still in the process of being naturalised (provided they could speak Bahasa Melayu and met the number of years criteria) hence most did not make it into the electoral roll. Therefore, it could be said that the voice of the Malays were in support of the Alliance – not PAS, not Parti Negara (that was formed by Dato’ Onn after leaving UMNO), not PPP, not PKMM, not CPM (the latter two of course were illegal organisations then and were not elligible to contest).

So, what does that say about people like Mat Indera, Abdullah CD, Rashid Maidin, Shamsiah Fakeh et al., the so-called nationalists who fought on the side of the communists? A simple malay term to describe them would be none other than “TALI BARUT KOMUNIS” or the communists’ lackeys, who lost all clout fighting for independence when the Federation of Malaya achieved independence in 1957. The elections results also prove that the malays disapproved of them fighting for the communists from the onset of the Malayan Emergency in 1948, and definitely disapproved of Mat Indera’s slaughter of the men, women and children of the Bukit Kepong Police Station.

None of those mentioned in the previous paragraph own any right whatsoever to be called “Freedom Fighters.”

 ——————————————————————————————————-

In ending this posting, I can safely say that I have done six postings on several chapters of the history of our nation versus none from the Ministry of Information. There seems to be no check and balance by the Ministry of Education to provide a full course in the nation’s history: all that the children read are watered-down versions of the nation’s history, structured so they could perform in the history examinations without understanding the spirit behind each and every event. There also seems to be inaction from the Home Ministry on seditious remarks made by certain quarters, even to the extent of belittling the institution of the Yang DiPertuan Agong and the Raja-Raja Melayu, as well as the glorifying of an illegal organisation – an act that is covered extensively in several legal Acts.

If we forget our history, we will become a nation without a soul – and this is now all too evident in a weary 54-year old Malaysia.

This Is Malaysia

Serious Racial Tension ??

• Here is a news report and picture from The Star:
• SJK(C) Puay Chai 2 opens up its carpark for those going for prayers during Ramadan
• • ..suraus difficult to accommodate large turnouts during terawih prayers
  • ..a helping hand, SJK(C) Puay Chai in Bandar Utama allow Muslims in its carpark. Surau Al-Syakirin is across the school.
  • Puay Chai 2 headmaster said this practice going on since 2001 
  • “…open our carpark during Ramadan, major (festivals)

• Convenient: Muslims returning to their cars at SJK(C)’s Puay Chai 2’s 
• carpark after their Isyak and Terawih prayers.
• • “When the school first started, we didn’t have a lot of students so the surau’s management helped to chip in for our electricity bills.
  • “Now..more students, surau also allows parents to wait on its premises..”
  • surau hired a security guard to help the school’s security guard patrol parking lot.
  • “.. open for tai-chi sessions in the evenings. .. just about time for the Isyak and Terawih prayers,” 
  • ..it prevented traffic congestion 
  • “have been worse if the school had not opened parking space,” .
  • “don’t have to leave car along Lebuh Bandar Utama and inconvenience residents,” 
  • This is Islamic. The surau has helped the school and the school returns the favour. This is Malaysia. This is the real Malaysia. We still see this in many small towns and kampongs throughout the country. People are not as hung up over differences. People tend to find more peace when they look for similarities. The need for car park space, the need to avoid disrupting the road traffic (by parking indiscriminately), helping our own neighbours first.
• Racial tension? In Bandar Utama?
• p.s. Congratulations to The Star for highlighting this story. Thanks bro.

Ini bukan hanya sekadar pendidikan cina sahaja

• APARTHEID DI MALAYSIA : DONG ZHONG MAKAHAI.

 

• Dong Zhong Ingin Sisihkan Kaum China
• Tujuh pertubuhan utama Cina dengan diketuai Dong Zhong telah memuktamadkan ‘Chinese Education Memorandum’ yang menyenaraikan 49 tuntutan dan akan diserahkan kepada Perdana Menteri pada bila-bila masa.
• Antara tuntutan mereka ialah agar kerajaan menghapuskan syarat-syarat yang dikenakan bagi pembinaan sekolah, menuntut agar kerajaan menanggung kos pembinaan dan tanah untuk sekolah Cina serta melaksanakan polisi pendidikan berbagai berbanding satu sistem yang diamalkan sekarang.
• Apa yang dituntut oleh pertubuhan-pertubuhan Cina ini membuktikan bahawa mereka benar-benar ingin menyisihkan terus kaum Cina dari arus sosial dan pembangunan negara ini.
• Melihat dari keangkuhan kaum Cina yang sering bermegah dengan penguasaan ekonomi mereka di negara ini, maka mereka mungkin ingin mewujudkan ‘Chinese Supremacy’ di mana mereka berada di atas dan oleh itu tidak perlu bergaul dengan kaum lain.  Tindakan mereka seolah-olah ingin mewujudkan sistem apartheid yang mengasingkan kaum-kaum di Malaysia.  
• Apartheid dilaksanakan secara rasmi di Afrika selepas pilihanraya pada tahun 1948 yang memisahkan penduduk kepada 4 kumpulan iaitu orang asli, kulit putih, Asia dan lain-lain kaum.  Kesemua kumpulan ini dipisahkan dalam pendidikan, perubatan, kawasan peranginan di pantai, kemudahan awam,malah kawasan perumahan juga dipisahkan, adakalanya dengan cara kekerasan.  Tentu sekali, kumpulan yang lemah dari segi ekonomi iaitu penduduk asal kulit hitam, mendapat bahagian yang lebih buruk dari pemisahan ini.
• Sebenarnya, sudah terlalu lama Dong Zhong memperjuangkan ‘apartheid’ di Malaysia ini dan mereka nampaknya tidak akan berganjak lagi.  Malah, mereka terus mara dan terus mengasak dengan tuntutan yang bukan-bukan bagi memastikan matlamat mereka berjaya.  
• Namun, apa yang membuatkan kita menggeleng-gelengkan kepala dengan keangkuhan ektremis Cina ini ialah mereka sanggup meminta kerajaan menanggung kos untuk melaksanakan agenda gelap mereka.
• Adalah tidak wajar sama sekali bagi kerajaan untuk menggunakan wang negara dan wang rakyat untuk membantu puak ektremis mengubah struktur sosial negara ini demi kepentingan sempit komuniti mereka.  
• Jika Dong Zhong ingin membina sekolah Cina yang berkiblatkan budaya, sejarah dan bahasa ibunda mereka, adalah tidak wajar mereka meminta bantuan kerajaan Malaysia.  Ini kerana ianya amat bertentangan dengan aspirasi kerajaan untuk membentuk 1Malaysia dengan satu bangsa, bahasa dan budaya.
• Pendek kata, jika Dong Zhong ingin membina sebuah negara China baru di dalam Malaysia, maka mereka perlu ditentang, bukannya dibantu.  
• Apa yang dituntut oleh Dong Zhong sebenarnya amatlah merbahaya.  Percayalah agenda mereka adalah jauh lebih dalam dan luas dari sekadar ‘pendidikan Cina’.   Ini bukan soal pendidikan lagi kerana jika ia hanya soal pendidikan bahasa Cina, ia boleh diselesaikan dengan sekadar mengadakan kelas tambahan.
• Dong Zhong mengimpikan sesuatu yang melangkaui soal bahasa atau budaya Cina.  Mereka inginkan penguasaan kaum Cina secara mutlak tanpa perlu bergantung kepada kaum lain, selain dari menjadi penyumbang kepada daya-beli produk mereka.
• Sudah menjadi undang-undang tidak bertulis di dunia bahawa sesiapa yang mengawal ekonomi, adalah berkuasa.  Maka, dengan ekonomi sedia berada di tangan kaum Cina, pengasingan kaum Cina dari kaum lain akan memaksa kaum lain tunduk kepada mereka.  Lama kelamaan, kuasa politik yang ada pada kerajaan juga tidak akan membawa makna lagi kerana terpaksa tunduk kepada kuasa ekonomi kaum Cina.
• Sudah sampai masa kerajaan bertegas dengan puak ektremis Cina ini.  Bahaya yang dibawa mereka tiada bezanya dengan puak ektremis agama yang mampu menjejaskan keamanan negara.   Dengan dasar apartheid yang ingin diwujudkan mereka, tidak mustahil negara bakal mengalami nasib seperti Afrika suatu ketika dahulu, dalam masa 10 – 20 tahun dari sekarang jika segala tuntutan mereka diterima.

 

Yang Kemaruk & Taksub serta Anti Nasional

 

 

 

Jati diri Cina Malaysia perlu komponen Melayu — Teo Kok Seong

August 11, 2012

11 OGOS — Rangsangan jurulatih China kepada Lin Dan ketika permainan penentuan dalam Sukan Olimpik London tempoh hari, yang dapat didengari, iaitu Datuk Lee Chong Wei sebagai lawannya adalah separuh Cina saja, boleh dianggap rasis. Namun ia menarik sekali untuk direnungi oleh Cina Malaysia.

Kepada Cina Malaysia yang rata-ratanya kemaruk dan taksub terhadap bahasa dan budaya Cina, sehingga bukan saja ingin mencontohi, tetapi berkehendakkan pendidikan aliran Cina di negara ini wujud seperti yang terdapat di China, tanpa mempedulikan keperluan pepatah di mana bumi dipijak, di situ langit dijunjung, persepsi jurulatih itu perlu direnungi sedalam-dalamnya kerana ia mempunyai banyak kebenaran.

Rangsangan itu memperlihat bangsa Cina yang bukan saja bangga dengan tamadun mereka yang berusia 5,000 tahun. Tetapi tetap angkuh sejak dulu kala sehingga ke zaman moden ini, sebagai bangsa yang maju dari segi peradaban dalam sejarah manusia.

Sehubungan ini, sebilangan besar Cina Malaysia bukan saja terikut-ikut dengan keangkuhan ini, tetapi berikhtiar sedaya upaya untuk mempamer selain mendukung jati diri etnik Cina tulen, dengan menolak unsur Melayu yang merupakan kelompok dominan di negara ini.

Cina Malaysia adalah hanya separuh Cina dan bukan Cina tulen seperti yang di China, merupakan hakikat yang perlu diterima dengan penuh keinsafan. Dalam hal ini, hubungan Cina Malaysia dengan China perlu hanya bersifat budaya nostalgia dan sentimental.

Oleh itu, mereka perlu menyedari, lebih-lebih lagi menginsafi nasionalisme etnik Cina mereka tidak boleh sekali-kali bersifat totok Cina, melainkan dibaurkan dengan perimbangan yang munasabah kadarnya, dengan nasionalisme Malaysia, yang harus mendukung simbol dan proses sosiobudaya Melayu. Ini adalah persetujuan bersama menjelang kemerdekaan.

Kelulusan pembinaan sekolah persendirian Cina yang ke-61 di Kuantan bukan saja disambut dengan baik, malah dianggap sebagai langkah betul yang diambil oleh kerajaan. Ini antaranya kerana kerajaan didapati memahami aspirasi mereka yang memberi keutamaan kepada pendidikan aliran Cina.

Untuk mewajarkan penubuhan sekolah ini, mereka selalu menganggapnya sebagai keuntungan kepada pembangunan dan pertumbuhan ekonomi negara, lebih-lebih lagi dalam perdagangan Malaysia-China.

Kebaikan pendidikan aliran Cina dalam beberapa aspek tidak dapat dinafikan. Antaranya adalah ia bersifat sistem yang dibantu oleh komuniti sendiri sejak kemerdekaan dan penjajahan British lagi, selain cara pengurusannya yang cekap, baik dari segi kualiti pendidikan mahupun penglibatan komuniti.

Namun demikian, pendidikan aliran Cina, baik di Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan atau Sekolah Persendirian, sering dipersepsikan sebagai antinasional atau menimbulkan isu perkauman pada sudut yang kurang ekstrem.

Hal demikian disebabkan oleh perjuangan dan tuntutan yang dapat dilihat sebagai melampau dan tidak berpijak di bumi nyata dalam sebuah negara majmuk. Antaranya adalah keperluan guru yang memiliki kelulusan bahasa Mandarin pada tahap Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia sebagai syarat penempatan di Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina.

Salah satu persepsi negatif tentang pendidikan aliran Cina ialah ketidaksediaannya untuk memupuk perpaduan, khususnya yang ingin dicapai melalui penggunaan bahasa Melayu selaku bahasa negara, sebagai penanda jati diri nasional.

Usaha sebegini didapati amat kurang jika diteliti daripada beberapa hal. Pertama, cadangan pendidikan ketatanegaraan dalam bentuk mata pelajaran baru, Malaysia Negaraku, dalam Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah (KSSR) yang bermula pada 2011, dalam bahasa Melayu. Ia yang ingin menggunakan 30 minit daripada jumlah 1,380 minit seminggu itu, ditolak atas pelbagai alasan, yang memperlihat keengganan sektor bukan Melayu menggunakan simbol Melayu itu.

Kedua, keengganan menggunakan sukatan pelajaran KSSR yang sama, untuk mata pelajaran bahasa Melayu dan juga bahasa Inggeris, dengan Sekolah Kebangsaan, agar penguasaan bahasa Melayu di sekolah vernakular berada pada tahap yang lebih tinggi. — Berita Harian

Simply Trouble Makers

The trouble makers separatist behaviour

• They want Mandarin in their schools when Mandarin is not even their mother tongue but instead, the official language of the People’s Republic of Communist China.
• Often they say “sekolah kebangsaan sucks” when they try to justify their vernacular schools. Well.. it is something like we all live in one house called MALAYSIA and the house undeniably has some leaks. Instead of working together hand in hand to repair the leaks, they conveniently choose to separate themselves at one corner of the house where there is no leak and build walls around, for themselves, at that corner. They even demand everything from the gomen to further enhance their separate corner which, sadly to say, the gomen more often than not, bow to the pressures.
• Can you call these kind of people as the true, patriotic and loyal house dwellers? No, they are “separatist”, disloyal, self-centred, unpatriotic, anti-national and even racist; who choose to separate themselves in one corner of the house.

• They are truly not the house dwellers. They want to forget that their forefathers were once welcomed to take shelter in the house and later on were accepted to be as one of the house dwellers when the forefathers “identified themselves fully with the indigenous people. They (the forefathers) speak the language of the indigenous people habitually, practice the customs and traditions of the people they have been assimilated into..“
• The gomen (especially the PM and Minister of Education), instead of encouraging it, should have the back-bone not to allow these kind of “separatist” behaviour in the house called MALAYSIA. No where else in the world practice these kind of “separatist” education system which obviously very detrimental to nation building.
• These “simply trouble-makers” people ought to leave this house and find their own house elsewhere, where they can speak their own preferred language, do their own things and have different CONSTITUTION.  Because, here in the separate corner of the house, with such “separatist” behaviour; are they not truly……

???

• They can’t even properly speak or even understand bahasa Kebangsaan ………. house dwellers huh?!

The Malaysian Dream

Perenggan yang di petik dari laman ARTiculations untuk renungan bersama terutamanya pemimpin negara, iaitu DS Najib dan juga mereka-mereka yang yang berperangai seperti pertubuhan Dong Zong yang sememangnya tidak layak berada di bumi Malaysia ini.

That proves that when faced with one ultimate – and common – aim and purpose, a people of diverse cultures, faiths, and interests as well as of different race may set aside whatever differences they may have, whatever misgivings they may habour against each other and unite.

Our task, in terms of trying to foster unity and harmony, is to create that ONE aim and purpose. I suppose, we can begin by eliminating, or trying to eliminate, anything which threatens to divide us.

How about we begin with ONE SCHOOL FOR ALL?

“SATU SEKOLAH UNTUK SEMUA“

Salam Aidil Fitri

Sekolah Agama

• Resentment Against Sekolah Agama.

• I spent this morning sitting in a round table about education issues : Equity In Education.
• There was a very good mix of people (Malays, Chinese, Indians, ladies, men, academics, educationists, professionals, religious people, business people) all very eloquent and saying many right things. There are really a lot of smart and quick witted people in the country. They are NOT in politics. Sad to say ALL the political parties are terribly under populated with clever people – meaning they are over populated with the other category. The Government has to find a mechanism to co-opt the capable and cleverer non-politicians into the business of running the Government. There is little place for the clever in the political parties. That is why in the long run, you can (or will) lose the elections.
• I learnt something new and not so new also. The not so new thing was when the represenative from ABIM (Angkatan Belia Islam Malaysia) asked for more Government aid for religious schools which he said were good and not causing any problems in the country.  Well, this is a free country and people are free to say whatever they want.
• But a lady speaker, who was quiet most of the time spoke up and really caught my attention. She represented a Yayasan which does serious charity work. She said that many school leavers from the ‘sekolah agama’ system (the tahfiz al Quran graduates, the sekolah pondok graduates, the madrassah, sekolah agama graduates etc) face dead ends. Their choices of furthering their education are very limited. (I think their whole lives are limited).
• They find it difficult to enter the local colleges and universities (except maybe to study religion). They even cannot get admission to the better institutes in the Arab countries (nauzubillah – may Allah protect us).  They can hardly speak a word of English. Worse they cannot mix easily with other people around them, especially with non Muslims or with people of different races and languages. This is because of their limited exposure in the sekolah agama where everything is either “islam” or “kafir”. In brief they become anti-social as well.
• Then the speaker also said that there is a lot of resentment building up among these young people. Many of them are beginning to realise that it is they who are different from the normal world. Of course they will feel resentment because compared to their other friends, their own futures have been destroyed. There will also be resentment against their parents as well for putting them in the sekolah agama in the first place.
• Many parents place their children in sekolah agama out of either ignorance or feelings of guilt. The ignorant think they are giving their children the best chances in life and in the “hereafter” by sending them to religious schools. How mistaken you are. 
• The guilty have committed some serious ‘perbuatan berdosa’ in their lives. Maybe they cheated people of money, songlap too much money or some other guilt ridden actions. So to tebus their own “dosa”, (repent for their own “sins”)  they seek to make amends and send their children to the sekolah agama. The children become sacrificial lambs for the parents’ guilt.
• (In old Ireland, the very religious Catholics often wished that if they had sons, at least one  would “serve the Lord“. This meant joining the Church. Maybe the Lord would look favourably on the parents and improve their chances of making it to heaven)
• It is the same with some people who feel compelled to “naik haji” five times or go for  “umrah” seven times. They have too much “dosa” or “sins” which they have committed.  Cuci dengan sabun tak hilang, cuci dengan chlorox tak boleh hilang, naik haji sekali tak puas, dua kali, tiga kali they still feel guilty. Terlalu banyak dosa. So if they have children maybe they will also sacrifice their children “in the Lord’s service”.  Send them off to sekolah agama. Maybe their children will learn how to baca Yasin and baca doa at their funerals which will help alleviate their burden of guilt and gain an entry to heaven.
• Hence many children end up at the sekolah agama because their parents had some motive or other. It is not in the best interest of the child’s future.
• Some of you will say that there is Ma’ahad this and Ma’ahad that which produces students with 13 As or 17As. They then go on to become doctors and engineers as well. These are few and far between. They produce so many As because they follow the Government curriculum (the secular school curriculum). And it is yet to be seen if their graduates who become doctors can fit easily in society.
• Or can they only fit into a society that is sejiwa, sebangsa and seagama as them? Which means they still cannot compete or keep up with others in their chosen fields.

Towards Improving Our National Education System

Around circles of readers, many have discussed and asked among themselves the appropriateness and the need for Malaysia to streamline their education system and importantly, the effort to improve the quality of our schools as a whole.

Chief among the concerns is the legality of vernacular schools itself vis-á-vis the Constitution and the Education Act 1996.

This I may add has been discussed rather thoroughly here.

But this issue shall be discussed at another time.

My main interpretation of school’s education system is this:

It must be free from any religious or cultural extremities.

In a way, it should be secular. Secular sounds dirty these days. Mainly because the word had been bastardised to the extent, it meant atheism or a belief system that is devoid of any religious connotations. Worse, it meant anti-Islam. However, the definition of secularism with regards to our children’s education should not be taken to the extreme. Certainly it does not mean that one rejects religion and faith in totality.

What we need is moderation.

These days, the majority of school children in national schools are Malays. Therefore, inadvertently Islamic teachings made their way into the schools’ general rules and education philosophy. I assume, those who are more objective as well as those who are not a fan of Anwar Ibrahim will pin point the cause of this ‘Islamisation’ of our national schools and the reason why non-malays shun these schools stemmed from the period when Anwar Ibrahim was the Education Minister.

That too, is an issue that can be discussed in another place.

But what I imagine is a school system that do not put too much emphasis on skin deep outlook on what is Islamic and what is not. It means, an education philosophy that prioritises worldly skills and knowledge instead of just focussing to permeate an intense Islamic culture within a school’s environment.

Without a doubt, this has made non Muslims felt alienated in their own surroundings. Parents were not happy. Even the less conservative Muslims found it hard to digest some of the do’s and don’ts. The effort to educate the children properly seems lost in the midst of all this. As the result, we cannot develop a well rounded Malaysians who are capable to interact with each other with ease.

In other words, the recent education system is worse than the education set in the 60’s, 70’s and till the mid 80’s. Experts pin pointed it due to the degradation of national schools; both in quality and self respect.

The cliché now is the world is changing at a rate faster than our children’s ability to absorb and comprehend all the knowledge. If we burden them with misguided priorities, then our future generations are trapped in a cycle of ignorance, or being mediocre at best.

Toning down religious and cultural extremities enables the school to produce a much healthier environment where tolerance is paramount and it breaks down the barriers between races, castes and classes. Emphasising too much on the ritual demands will not breed respect in fact, will isolate the children from each other. It will be “it’s us against them” mentality. And this does not happen in malay majority schools only.

How to move forward and take that jump in order to escape the mediocrity of our education system?

It is about time the Ministry of Education take a stronger role in steering our children’s future away from the negative elements that have been plaguing it. Elements that have always been sniping and eating away the very fabric of one’s edification in growing up within our Malaysian universe.

The bigger objective here is always a two edged sword. One that can improve via knowledge, a whole generation of Malaysians and one that also inculcate the spirit of togetherness and racial harmony among the children.

Of course this can be done with a single stream national education system. Preferably at the primary level.

Delving into few discussions on the one school system, there are obviously few doubts being raised among the concerned readers. Among others, questions regarding the quality of education and syllabus, quality of teachers and their approach, learning environment and school’s infrastructure as well as its overall ability to coalesce different ideologies, religions and cultures into one symbiotic and workable system.

Generally, many agreed that the holistic performance of the students is very important for their own future and this can only be done if the MOE is not weak in steering its direction and truly knows how improvements can be implemented.

One of the reasons why national schools could not generate enough interests from all levels of society is due to its inability to churn good students across the board. Yes we do have excellent schools that produce a myriad of high achievers. But these schools are far from between. The MOE should make all national schools at par with their more affluent counterparts.

Fortunately, all the points above are being discussed in the national education dialog which have been running since April 2012. They have 9 priority fields which they ought to improve which are:

1. quality of teachers

2. quality of headmasters

3. quality of school

4. curriculum and its evaluation

5. multilingual proficiency

6. post-school opportunity

7. role of parents and community

8. knowledge resources in school and its effectiveness

9. teaching methods and administrative structure

This could be the biggest project MOE has embarked since Penyata Razak in 1956 and Rahman Talib Report in 1960.

On that note, I do hope the MOE will reinstate the PPSMI after reviewing the youtube video below.

Thank you.

Hipokrasi Cina Pendatang Amat Memualkan

 

Omegay: Hua Zong – Longgar Syarat Kemasukan Hina Sektor Awam

• Laporan Sin Chew Daily mengenai kenyataan Presiden Gabungan Pertubuhan Cina Malaysia (Hua Zong), Tan Sri Pheng Yin Huah yang menyarankan agar pengambilan kakitangan awam bukan Melayu dilonggarkan, menyebabkan ramai yang tersenyum sinis. Apatah lagi bila mendengar alasan beliau iaitu: “Saya amat risau jika keadaan ini tidak dapat diubah, kerana akan berlaku jurang yang amat ketara dan akan semakin memburuk sehingga lama-kelamaan akan berlaku kesan sampingan lain.”
• Apakah layak Yin Huah bercakap mengenai ‘jurang antara kaum’ apabila beliau adalah antara juara yang berdegil ingin memastikan jurang tersebut terus wujud dan semakin besar bermula dari bangku sekolah lagi?  Beliau dan juga Dong Zong sama-sama tegar memperjuangkan agar jurang ini diteruskan sehingga sekolah menengah malah hingga peringkat universiti dengan menuntut agar sijil dari Universiti-universiti tertentu yang bertunjangkan bahasa Cina diiktiraf.  
• Justeru, apakah Yin Huah begitu bodoh kerana tidak tahu bahawa jurang antara kaum tidak akan wujud jika semua anak-anak Malaysia bersekolah bersama-sama? Atau lebih tepat, jurang antara kaum mungkin telah lama terhapus jika Hua Zong, Dong Zong dan NGO-NGO yang seangkatan dengan mereka tidak wujud sama sekali di Malaysia.  
• Meloyakan sekali apabila kini Yin Huah tiba-tiba ‘merasa risau’ pula jika jurang tersebut menjadi lebih besar di alam pekerjaan.
• Cadangan Yin Huah agar kemasukan ke sektor awam dilonggarkan menyerlahkan sikapnya yang dwistandard.  Kelayakan untuk masuk ke sektor awam mewajibkan seseorang itu fasih berbahasa Melayu dengan keputusan kredit di dalam peperiksaan.  Ini adalah sesuatu yang ‘semulajadi’ memandangkan Bahasa Melayu adalah bahasa rasmi negara.  Pastinya, Yin Huah sedar bahawa penyebab kurangnya kaumnya diterima masuk ke sektor awam adalah kerana ‘kredit Bahasa Melayu’ ini dan kerana itulah beliau menyarankan agar syarat ini dilonggarkan.
• Kita telah sedia maklum bahawa selama ini, kaum Cina juga yang begitu beria-ia memperjuangkan sistem merit, maka kenapa pula mereka merungut apabila sistem merit itu tidak menepati ‘citarasa’ mereka?
• Adalah tidak wajar jika kita meminta agar kelonggaran diberikan iaitu menurunkan taraf kelayakan Bahasa Melayu hanya untuk memastikan lebih ramai kaum lain dapat bekerja di sektor awam kerana ia juga bermakna menurunkan ‘standard’ atau kualiti kakitangan awam.
• Sedangkan kita marah apabila taraf kelayakan di universiti diturunkan bagi memastikan lebih ramai mereka dari latarbelakang yang susah berpeluang melanjutkan pelajaran.  Maka, kenapa kita perlu menerima saranan penyelesaian yang sama iaitu menurunkan taraf kelayakan semata-mata untuk meramaikan kaum lain (baca: Cina) di dalam sektor awam?
• Yin Huah tidak perlu berlakon seolah-olah beliau prihatin dengan semangat perpaduan antara kaum di Malaysia kerana kita tahu bahawa itu tidak benar.  Kita faham apa yang Yin Huah risaukan di sini ialah mengenai meningkatkan penguasaan kaumnya di dalam sektor awam.  Dalam ertikata lain, Yin Huah hanya risaukan mengenai nasib kaumnya semata-mata.
• Dan ini terbukti dalam penjelasan panjang lebarnya bahawa dengan penambahan kaumnya di dalam sektor awam maka ia akan dapat memastikan perkhidmatan yang lebih baik bagi kaum Cina di satu-satu kawasan itu.  Kenyataan Yin Huah ini seolah-olah menunjukkan yang kaum Cina tidak mendapat perkhidmatan terbaik dari kerajaan.
• Memandangkan masih ramai kaum Cina warga Malaysia tidak fasih berbahasa kebangsaan, maka mereka seringkali menghadapi masalah apabila berurusan dengan sektor awam.   Dan inilah sebenarnya yang merisaukan Yin Huah, bukannya soal perpaduan.
• Bagaimanapun, penyelesaian yang disarankan oleh Yin Huah iaitu menambah bilangan kaum Cina di sektor awam adalah satu cadangan yang chauvinis, tidak praktikal, pentingkan diri dan menggambarkan sikap perkauman yang amat kronik.
• Sedangkan sepatutnya Yin Huah menyeru agar kaum Cina memperkasakan dan mencintai bahasa kebangsaan sebagai seorang warganegara yang setia bagi mengatasi masalah berurusan dengan sektor awam.  Malah, lebih baik lagi jika Yin Huah menyeru agar kaum Cina menghantar anak mereka ke sekolah kebangsaan bagi memantapkan bukan sahaja bahasa kebangsaan, tetapi juga perpaduan serta semangat patriotisme terhadap negara ini. 
• Seharusnya, Yin Huah menuntut kaum Cina agar belajar menyesuaikan diri untuk ‘survival’ dan bukannya menuntut supaya seluruh sistem, undang-undang, perlembagaan, prosedur dan seluruh struktur sosial di Malaysia disesuaikan dengan kehendak dan keperluan kaum Cina!
• Apakah signifikannya ‘kaum Cina’ berbanding kaum lain di Malaysia?
• Sesungguhnya, hipokrasi Yin Huah dan Hua Zong amatlah memualkan.  Sampai bila agaknya mereka ini akan berpijak di bumi nyata, menerima hakikat bahawa mereka bukan lagi berada di negara China tetapi telah menjadi warga Malaysia, iaitu negara berbilang kaum dengan penduduk asalnya adalah Melayu yang beragama Islam serta menggunakan Bahasa Melayu?
• Kita cabar Hua Zong agar membuang sifat hipokrit dan berdiri atas nama ektremisme Cina yang sebenar tanpa perlu berselindung lagi.  Tidak perlu pura-pura mengeluh risaukan jurang antara kaum, atau menuntut orang lain agar mendahulukan Malaysia sebelum bangsa, kerana bukan semua orang lain itu bodoh sehingga tidak dapat membaca agenda anda. – Beruang Biru

Perkara 152 Perlembagaan Persekutuan

 

Kementerian Pelajaran sedang Talkinkan Bahasa Melayu!

• Fellow Utama ATMA UKM seorang berketurunan Thiong Hua begitu taat setianya kepada perjuangan Munshi Abdullah, Pendeta Za’aba dan Aminuddin Baki serta Tun Dr. Ismail. Beliau mendukung kuat pengetahuan magna carta dan lingua franca bahawa Bahasa Melayu amat wajib memimpin wacana ilmu, wacana perniagaan dan wacana rasmi Malaysia dan rantau Melayu dunia. Bahasa Melayu ialah Bahasa Kebangsaan termaktub di dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan, rujuk perkara 152.
• Persoalan yang mesti dijawab oleh YAB Menteri Pelajaran, KSU Kementerian Pelajaran, YB Timbalan-Timbalan Menteri Pelajaran ialah, MENGAPA ‘Bahasa Malaysia’ menjadi bahan dagangan perbahasaan di Kementerian hingga penerbitan rasmi Negara juga menulis ‘Bahasa Malaysia’ dan bukannya disebut sebetulnya iaitu Bahasa Melayu?!
• Menteri-menteri Melayu dan Pegawai Kanan Tertinggi Kerajaan Melayu “malu dan takut” dengan siapa? Bahasa Melayu ialah alat dan bahasa perpaduan, komunikasi paling berkesan dan terus sesuai. Bahasa Melayu ialah sebahagian daripada juzuk Bahasa Arab. Apakah Menteri-menteri Barisan Nasional sudah pandai dan memilih menjadi Wahabi dan Khawarij dalam menjamin kemaslahatan perpaduan, Aman dan Damai!?
• Ketua-ketua Bahagian UMNO apakah di kalangan mereka yang begitu baghal menyusun pemerintahan dan pentadbiran eksekutif Negara hingga Perkara 152 iaitu Bahasa Melayu menjadi alat kompromi untuk undi-undi para pengundi yang tidak Taat dan Setia kepada Agama, Bangsa dan Tanahair?
• Kalau hanya untuk minta sedekah undi Pengundi Cina dan Kalinga yang atas pagar, pengundi yang menafikan Perkara 3 dan sanggup menggadai maruah Rukunegara dan bersama kumpulan Plural, Liberal dan LBGT; dan mereka ini yang hendak dipancing oleh BN atas nama Bahasa Malaysia?…maka InsyaAllah, Bumi Melayu ini pasti akan dilaknat Allah Ta’ala, seperti Wa’ad antara Demang Lebar Daun dengan Raja Melayu.
• Tergamak kalangan Pemimpin UMNO mengkhianati sumpah ini…maka pasti terangkatlah obor penentu bahawa 7 Wasiat Raja-Raja Melayu.
• Wahai UMNO jangan tidur dalam tilam ronggak dan penuh berkulat. Pemimpin UMNO khasnya Ketua-ketua Bahagian yang masih LENA BERDENGKUR dan menjual INTEGRITI Perlembagaan secara senyap apalagi terbuka, bertaubatlah selagi PINTU TAUBAT masih terbuka. Ingatlah kalian, bahawa begitu banyak jiwa yang terkorban untuk memastikan Negara ini berpaksi kepada Perlembagaan Persekutuan berteraskan Piagam Madinah dan Perjanjian Hudaibiyah.
• Dulu 13 Mei 1969, PAP dan DAP mengusung Keranda 152. Pada 1998 di Masjid Negara, kelompok budak bangang Melayu pula yang mengusung Keranda 152. Nampaknya, Batu Nesan dan Kain Kafan 152 sedang diurus dari dalam oleh kelompok Wahabi, Khawarij, Syiah, Komunis dan Freemason dalam Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia.
• Moga Ramadhan 1433H, Allah Buka Pintu Hidayah, Taubat dan Makrifat  Allah untuk Agama, Bangsa dan Tanahair

PENDATANG – Mereka tidak “reti” bahasa

 

Faktor Kaum – Terjemahan Artikel Tun Mahathir

Dibawah saya terjemahkan artikel terbaru Tun Mahathir – The Race Factor. Jika terdapat sebarang kesilapan terjemahan atau dari segi maksud, sila perbetulkan.

1  – Ramai yang bertanya kenapa kita tidak boleh hapuskan politik yang berasaskan perkauman ?

2  – Jawapan yang mudah adalah kerana kita sendiri yang mahu memperingati diri dan diiktiraf mengikut asal usul kaum, negara asal tuk nenek, bahasa dan budaya ibunda.

3  – Kita tidak cukup setakat menyatakan bahawa kita ini adalah rakyat Malaysia. ( maknanya kita masih mahu merujuk kepada kaum kita samada Melayu, Cina , India dll )

4  – Jika diberikan contoh negara lain dimana rakyat pelbagai kaum mereka mampu hidup tanpa adanya politik perkauman, atau perlu dibezakan mengikut negara asal mereka ( contohnya China, India dll ) , kita akan jawab yang kita ini berbeza. Keadaan kita unik, tidak boleh dibandingkan dengan negara lain. TAPI waktu sama dalam banyak perkara lain, kita mahu pula bandingkan dengan mereka.

5 – Tapi apakah kita begitu berbeza dengan mereka ? Sebenarnya ramai juga rakyat kita yang berasal dari negara luar tapi mereka telah lupa akan negara asal. Kita menerima mereka kerana mereka telah menerima sepenuhnya cara hidup penduduk asal disini. Mereka berbahasa tempatan, mengamalkan budaya dan tradisi tempatan dan kebetulan kebanyakannya adalah orang Islam.

6  – Mengikut Perlembagaan, mereka ini adalah Melayu dan diiktiraf sebagai Bumiputera dan bukannya pendatang luar.

7  – Menjadi satu isu besar diSabah kerana bilangan besar mereka yang diberikan kerakyatan. Ada yang telah dihantar pulang kenegara asal tapi ramai juga yang kembali secara haram.

8  – Tapi ramai dari mereka ini sebenarnya layak untuk diberi kerakyatan. Mereka telah tinggal di Malaysia ( Sabah ) berpuluh tahun lamanya. Mereka dan anak2 fasih bertutur dalam Bahasa Melayu iaitu Bahasa Kebangsaan kita.

9  – Atas dasar permastautin yang lama dan kefasihan mereka dalam Bahasa Kebangsaan mereka layak dan telah diberikan taraf Warganegara.

10 – Sebagai perbandingan, kita punya ramai dikalangan rakyat yang tidak boleh bertutur dalam Bahasa Kebangsaan tapi telah diberikan Kerakyatan. Dan kita masih lagi berikan kerakyatan kepada orang luar yang memohon menjadi Warganegara dengan syarat mereka telah tinggal disini selama 10 tahun dari 12 tahun yang lepas, fasih dalam Bahasa Kebangsaan dan mengangkat sumpah ketaatan kepada negara. Jadi kenapa imigran diSabah yang sudah memenuhi syarat2 diatas tidak boleh diberikan Kerakyatan ? Bantahan kepada pemberian Kerakyatan mereka ini dilihat lebih bersifat politik.

11 – Faktor perkauman menjadi isu besar lagi. Suatu ketika dulu terdapat parti2 politik yang berasaskan ideologi bertanding dalam Pilihanraya tapi mereka semua ditolak oleh pengundi dan rakyat memilih parti2 yang berasaskan kaum.

12 – Jika kita mahu melihat politik yang berasaskan kaum, maka kita harus bersedia untuk melupakan asal usul kita, bertutur dan menerima Bahasa Kebangsaan sebagai bahasa ibunda dan melafazkan ikrar taat setia kepada negara ini saja. Kita masih boleh kekalkan ugama masing2.

13 – Mungkin satu hari nanti ia akan berlaku. Tapi untuk ketika ini, politik kita akan tetap berasaskan kaum walaupun kita tidak mahu mengakuinya. Kita juga tidak harus sebut ‘pelbagai kaum’ kerana dengan itu secara tidak sedar kita mengakui wujudnya perbezaan kaum.

**************************************
Komen Dinturtle –

Ya, kenapa ramai dari kaum bukan Melayu yang mengaku sebagai rakyat negara ini, yang marah jika kita pertikaikan semangat nasionalisma mereka, yang mendakwa mereka adalah pejuang konsep Bangsa Malaysia yang sebenar TAPI waktu sama ramai dikalangan mereka tidak fasih dalam Bahasa Kebangsaan Malaysia ? Mereka juga lebih mengutamakan sejarah dan budaya luar negara berbanding sejarah dan budaya tempatan ?

Mereka ini marah jika kita sebut hal2 yang berkaitan dengan perkauman TAPI waktu sama mereka lah yang paling vokal memperjuangkan budaya dan bahasa kaum mereka yang berasal dari negara luar ?

Mereka ini juga merasakan TIDAK ADA KEPERLUAN untuk fasih dalam Bahasa Kebangsaan Malaysia, yang juga memberi makna yang mereka merasakan TIDAK ADA KEPERLUAN juga untuk bercampur gaul dengan kaum yang hanya faham Bahasa Kebangsaan negara.

DAN MEREKA MENDAKWA MEREKALAH JAGUH BANGSA MALAYSIA ? ? ?

Sesungguhnya ada yang tidak kena dengan cara kita melayan rakyat yang tidak reti bahasa ini !

Kenapa digelar PENDATANG dan tidak diterima sepenuhnya sebagai rakyat MALAYSIA?

If we don’t want our politics to be race-based, then….

There are actually a lot of people of foreign origins in Malaysia who seem to have forgotten their origins. These are the people of Indian, Arab, Indonesian and even Turkish and European origins who are accepted as indigenous people by all of us. They have been so accepted because they identified themselves fully with the indigenous people. They speak the language of the indigenous people habitually, practice the customs and traditions of the people they have been assimilated into and incidentally they are Muslim.

They and their children speak Malay, the national language.

On the basis of length of stay and mastering of the national language, they qualify to be citizens of this country. And so the acquired citizenship.

By comparison we have many citizens who cannot speak the national language who were accepted as citizens.

If we don’t want our politics to be race-based, then we must forget our racial origins, speak the national language as our mother tongue and swear allegiance only to this country. We can retain our religion however.
