The issue of racial polarization in Malaysia seems to be getting worse.
This issue can clearly be seen during GE13 where almost 100% Chinese
rejected Barisan Nasional government. Whatever their excuse may be,
rakyat are mature enough to know that such rejection came from the
confidence that DAP will manage to implement Chinese supremacy in this
country.
Fact is, the Chinese refuse to be led by Barisan Nasional because it is led by Malays.
Thus, the Chinese refuse to recognize the social contract which unites
all races in this country. Hence, refuse to recognize the Constitution
especially Article 152/153 even though they know that it is one of the
many reason which has been keeping this country away from conflicts such
as Indonesian reform.
The Chinese might have forgotten that May 13 tragedy happened due to the
issue as same as Indonesian reform where the original population were
not satisfied with the Chinese as they kept on taking benefits from
their own home soil. This happened because the original population were
left out in terms of education and economy during occupation era to
avoid any rebellion. From there, original population can no longer
'catch up' or compete with the Chinese which were given more chance to
learn.
Thus, to balance this out, Malaysia has outlined the rights of original
population clearly - not to take away the rights of immigrants, but to
ensure that immigrants would not snatch away all the rights of the
original population.
However, the Chinese still refuse to give in and kept on questioning the
rights. Not just that, they kept on asking and demanding for more
without even considering the consequences to the social structure, or
even the country's future.
Despite of being given the rights to isolate their children from other
races through vernacular schools, the Chinese remain unhappy. They want
to go further towards making a bigger racial gap, by demanding that the
government should recognize UEC, a high school examination which uses
Chinese language and different syllabus from the national education
policy, which goes against Education Act 1996.
UEC is divided into three levels, Junior Middle (UEC-JML), Vocational
(UEC-V) and Senior Middle (UEC-SML) where all of it uses Mandarin,
UEC-SML covers mathematics, all science subjects and all subjects in
trade course.
Dong Zong's excuse saying that UEC is recognized by high schools in
countries such as United Kingdom, United States, Taiwan, Hong Kong,
China, Singapore, Australia and Canada is irrelevant to be compared to
the scenario in Malaysia. Especially now, with clear racial gap, which
is very dangerous for the future of the country.
Not just the racial gap, the issue where most Chinese children are
unable or weak in the usage of the national language should be taken as a
serious issue.
It is now time for this issue to be given full attention, and rectified by the government.
What the Chinese demanded is not good for the country, or even for their
own race. If their demands are followed, this will lead Malaysia to a
country which does not unite.
That is why, all of the demands made by these kiasus should be stopped, now.
The Chinese showed that they would not move and keep on demanding things
which will not benefit the country. This race has proven that they are
never open for discussion.
We need to remember that the government bears the responsibility to
developing Malaysian, in line with the concept of 1Malaysia. How can
that be possible if UEC and vernacular schools, became the wall to stop
this aspiration?
Thus, the government should close all chance for discussion with the Chinese regarding this matter and for once, say no.
'No' means 'no'. Accept it, or else, they might as well migrate to the
countries which recognizes UEC, that is the only way. Period.
