Malaysia politics is currently in a state of chaos, as not only Pakatan Rakyat is trouble, but so is the Barisan Nasional.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak has come under repeated attacks
by former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad(photo) while the 1Malaysia
Development Bhd (1MDB) debt issue is driving the political situation.
Meanwhile, the factional problem within MIC remains unsettle.
After gaining a wider support rate in the previous election, Pakatan
Rakyat has failed to make good use of it.
Instead, one after another
wave of crisis has affected its stability and even pushed it to the
point of collapse, disappointing a great number of voters.
Whether a third force will emerge after both the coalitions have failed
to gain full confidence of the public has now become the subject of
great concern.
Would PAS forge an alliance with Umno to preserve the Malay agenda? If
so, it will be a backsliding towards a narrow, race and religion-led
politics.
Such a development is not desired by the people as most of the public
want the country to move towards political pluralism, openness,
democracy and tolerance.
In short, it is time to put an end to the racial and religious partisan
politics. Political parties must get rid of the racial and religious
framework to establish a new political pattern of openness and
moderation.
Only national unity and harmony can meet the needs of voters.
