1Malaysia has a nice ring to it but only if one is sincere about treating all citizens with proper respect.
Seeing how the BN has mismanaged the Perak fiasco, it is small wonder that many common folks are rubbishing that catchy slogan as mere balderdash.
malaysiakini has the people's response here.
Now if you read about how the PM is trying to portray everyone as trying to practise parliamentary democracy and also shielding the Perak sultan, you need to give some some credit for trying to pull a fast one on Malaysians.
There is a major difference between the Sultan trying to decide who commands the majority after an elections and who has been bought over/blackmailed into crossing over during a defections "dirty tricks" campaign.
The former is the result of an elections campaign while the latter could have been executed to deny the people's choice of government.
Furthermore, since the State Secretary is a civil servant who answers to Putrajaya, it is abundantly clear who ordered that person to remove the legitimate State Speaker from the Perak Assembly.
1Malaysia? I don't think so. "1UMNO" is more likely the recalcitrant battle cry. UMNO is already in serious trouble with the common folks. I suppose we should be grateful for Najib's type of leadership for it spells doom in the next GE.
