Of course it caught my eye – the page 4 headlines in The Star newspaper of 3 November 2008. It was big and bold – “BN will get support if it is fair.” It was a quote by DPM Najib. By George, he’s got it!! Finally!
Oh … I’ve GOT to quote this. The paper quoted him as saying ” The people will continue to support and have confidence in Barisan Nasional if the Government addresses the legitimate needs and grievances of eachcommunity” (emphasis mine) …. “we realize that each race has its own unique problems. …. regardless of the policy introduced ….. what was important was not the name but the ensuring that the policy is fair and just to all races.”
I rolled my eyes. Wasn’t the obvious being stated? But I’m glad it IS being stated – that some are beginning to see the light. I am hopeful and trying hard not to be cynical. Of course it is a long road from a public speech to implementation. But perhaps now we can hold him to his word come March 2009.
By George, he’s got it!! I think he’s finally got it! (For the blur-blur – this quote is by Prof Higgins in “My Fair Lady.”)
