Sukarno

One issue that I have always found particularly disturbing in Malaysia is how Chinese-based (or Chinese-dominated) political parties, Chinese education pressure groups and pretty much anyone else apart from these groups that strongly advocate for “Chinese rights” in general almost always manage to get away with labelling anyone else who disagree with them “racists” or “anti-Chinese”. However, these very same people do not realise that with their one finger pointing at others, there are four fingers pointing back at them in return. Case in point is on the issue of single stream education, which has evoked a huge amount of racist sentiment among the groups previously mentioned and which has remained a contentious issue for decades until today.
