Issues of race and religious superiority by any one, must be check and kept in the after burner.Mohd Arshad Rajihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280406045497460630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108577687673016887.post-38603823268421224822008-10-05T14:18:00.000+08:002008-10-05T14:18:00.000+08:00Talking about Race Relations, I think Hindraf has ...Talking about Race Relations, I think Hindraf has made a mistake by going to the PM's Open House in a controversial manner.<BR/><BR/>According to the dailies, they came fully attired and noisy as a group, cut the queue and ignored the thousands of people arriving at the PWTC before them.<BR/><BR/>Surely this is not the way to behave, for Hindraf organizers very well know the Aidilfitri Open House is to enhance the goodwill of our multi-racial society regardless of their political ideology.<BR/><BR/>The recent episode shows that Hindraf does not deserve the support of all peace-loving Malaysians.mauricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683620510088068290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108577687673016887.post-61404675193858977042008-10-05T11:19:00.000+08:002008-10-05T11:19:00.000+08:00Dear Walimuar,You hit the nail on the head.MCA, Ge...Dear Walimuar,<BR/><BR/>You hit the nail on the head.<BR/><BR/>MCA, Gerakan and DAP talk so much about building the ideal future Bangsa Malaysia.<BR/><BR/>But they did nothing to change the mindset of the body of people running the Chinese Vernacular Schools.It appears they are powerless/ reluctant (?) to do what is right to create the basic foundation for a future Bangsa Malaysia.<BR/><BR/>Let us push the concept of National Service from the present PLKN.The MAF could be an important vehicle for national integration for youths coming from the national and vernacular schools.I think this idea is doable.Perhaps our host Dato Arshad could start the ball rolling.mauricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683620510088068290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108577687673016887.post-6978120979999493462008-10-05T09:23:00.000+08:002008-10-05T09:23:00.000+08:00Dato and Maurice,When you cited this "pendek" Java...Dato and Maurice,<BR/><BR/>When you cited this "pendek" Javanese from Muar write up on race relation ,I take it with a pinch of salt as his opinion does not excite me at all, as this particular Jawa from Sg Balang Muar is the worst "Pengerusi" if ever he chairs any public forum on TV.Penjilat UMNO of the worst kind which I have come across and conclude and remembers as the short Javanese with mental block thinking.We came from the same Shire. I once saw on TV how Dr Hassan Ali PAS checked him on Tv Live, and teaches him how to conduct public forum.To me he is an Id... This is a living example of an individual who hidup ku,matiku bersama UMNO.... and deserve to be called a st.... Muarian.Maybe he did that for survival.....<BR/><BR/>To Maurice,<BR/><BR/>I would ask this question.<BR/><BR/>Will all the Malaysian Chinese and Indian willing to sacrifice their<BR/>SRJK (C) and SRJK (T) towards a more balanced future generation?<BR/>If not then forget about the idea as it is good only on paper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7108577687673016887.post-82629892914141511062008-10-04T16:35:00.000+08:002008-10-04T16:35:00.000+08:00The present education system need to be reorganize...The present education system need to be reorganized in order to develop solid foundation for race relations for future generations.<BR/><BR/>To start with all the vernacular schools should be done away with.Instead have only one type of primary and secondary schools for all Malaysian children.<BR/><BR/>Under TDM we had a chance to start doing it under the Wawasan School concept but some groups sabotaged it for their own selfish political agenda.<BR/><BR/>There is no lack of efforts on the part of the government on the issue of racial integration.It is only that some groups of Malaysians do not care two hoot about racial integration.mauricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03683620510088068290noreply@blogger.com
