Some people just cannot accept change!

So the whole Perak MB issue has been settled.Finally.

In my previous posts, I have ranted and raved about a PAS man being the MB and DAP not putting up a fight. However, recent events have made me reconsider my stand. Firstly, I have to admit, Nazir is the most qualified candidate of the three men proposed for the MB position. He is qualified academically, he has had experience in nation building ( well, more like projects but these skills can be honed) and he can even speak a little (enough) of the Chinese language. He addressed the Perak constituent with Mandarin after being sworn in. (to which us Perak-ians unanimously shouted HAO! when asked by Nizar NI HAO MA?!) We are told he is actually of Chinese-Malay parentage(so chinese people are happy, malays are happy and if only he also had Indian blood...)

I would like to wish him the best and hope that he will do a great job in the position as MB.

(Yes, sometimes I may be wrong and I will admit it. However, time will tell whether the new MB will indeed perform)

So then the next issue everyone (including the NGOs- seriously? NGO? What is THEIR problem?) was harping on was the State Exco of Perak. It consist of 6 DAP, 2 PAS and 2 PKR members (if I remember correctly). Now, what irks me is the fact that everybody wants to have a say about how it "tidak mewakili komposisi bangsa Melayu di Perak" as the DAP party got 6 positions in the State Exco.

These NGOs and busybodies hold press conferences to yell "TIDAK BOLEH DITERIMA!".
Seriously, what IS their problem? DAP won most of the seats in Perak. The most important seat was given to a PAS man. Whom, in case these NGOs and other busybodies did not notice, IS A MALAY MAN? Already DAP decided, ok, let the best man be the MB and we shall not fight for it.
So, does it not make sense that DAP (who just so happen to have more Chinese members than Non Chinese- but does not automatically mean they ONLY represent non Chinese member's rights [unlike UMNO]) who won more seats and have relinquished the MB position be given a bigger share of the pie, so to speak?

What is there to yell about "tidak boleh diterima"? Er, hello?! Go take your damn mic which you shouted in and shove it in your foul-unthinking-selfish-racist mouth!

The people in Perak have actually moved on. There is no longer an issue about race. Yes, initially there was. And in fact, if the Non Chinese people DID want to make an issue about the MB being from PAS, eventhough DAP won most seats, we would have stormed the streets and shouted for it. But we rather not. We trust out Sultan and his Son. We trust that the party whom we have chosen to represent us can make the decision in our interests. And besides, even if all previous statements are not true, we have better things to do then stand around the street protesting when we seriously, do not know jack shit about the agreement PAS-DAP-PKR made in power sharing. Whatever it is, I feel its a good deal.

And for the rest of you who think more Malay people should be in the exco. Stop being racist. When BN was in power and EVERY damn person in the Exco and in whatever top administration post was Malay, do WE Non Malays make a fuss???

Do we ask why the President of UMNO AUTOMATICALLY becomes PM? Because a lot of us sure do NOT agree. Do we ask why why MBs MUST be malay? Do we question all these Malay dominated domains? We dont. We just accept it (albeit disgruntedly) because in the infamous words we "tolerate" it. So if there is a domain where Non Malays can actually dominate or be given an opportunity to shine, I'm sorry, but we are seizing that opportunity. It IS our country too, just in case you forgot.

My advise to you my racist so called NGO and busybodies alike, accept change because change is here, and its happening whether you like it or not.

So, shut up already and go be productive for once.
