Once again the clarion call goes up - at least it wasn't from a politician this time.
The Malays, we are told, must stay united. It makes me wonder... why? Who gains from unity, what is the benefit? After all, the ruling ethos of democratic Malaysia is one of market supremacy. And the fundamental principle behind that is that competition rather than cooperation is the way to go. Hard to compete when there's unity. Thus we are privatising our essential services, to help foster competition, in other words creating DISunity.
La la.
