When Tun Mahathir says....

Recently, Tun Mahathir has given his comments about the future of Malaysian Prime Minister. He was saying that non-malay can become the prime minister one day (not in the near future). As usual and as i expected the reaction from UMNO member or for those who really supports him, will comment, whatever he says, it is something to ponder. An overwhelming reaction. bla...bla..




What if, same thought is coming from opposition party (i.e: PAS or PKR or any malay dominated parties), what would be the reaction? I can guarantee whoever comes out with this statement will be labeled as Malay Traitor, ungrateful malay, Disrespectful Malay and many labels. . I remember back then, Chief Minister of Kelantan, Datok Nik Aziz nik mat who has come out with the same opinion but with the clause as long as he/she is muslim malay or non malay can become the prime minister. The reaction was the other way around.

Not that i disagree or agree with what Tun Mahathir said, nevertheless this is the way of malaysian politics.

It should be, it is not about "who said" but the important thing "what is said".
