1/11/2025 ANWAR THE MALAYSIAN FATHER OF JUSTICE ....

Abdul Rahman Putera, Tunku is our Father of Independence. Being originally kuli king Chinese and Indians in the Colonial-British-based industries, they later walked to be the Malaysian master of economies. The Malays and all the other natives, for long being bystanders and "protected", now they turned bureaucrat and great politician, but majority remain "highly guarded".  Inter-mixed of those made Malaysia a high flyer, and should be. Najib Razak honored Tunku with his second tallest building on earth through Tunku Arc of Independence Procalmation statue., the Menara 118. Independence should brought us to be inter-dependent - helping and supporting each other as a nation. Our thought and spirit should be together as in the word of Adenan Satem, "Kerja sama-sama, main sama-sama and cari Amoi sama-sama". Yet such not the case. The racial and economic segregation by the long Western colonization had built great barrier for our unification and cohesive socialization. 

(2) Abdul Razak Hussein, the Al Mighty Allah brought in fast as next Prime Minister after Tunku. He is known as the Father of Development. Razak knew the clashed between Tunku and the young UMNO tugs such as Ismail Abdul Rahman and Mahathir Mohammed then was all about development gaps be it regional or racial. So he engineered those RDAs, all sorts of public institutions and most profounding was the Dasar Ekonomi Baru, NEP in 1972. NEP was ingrainly abused to the extend, the 30:70 economic equity target was messed to the level it turned out  almost 90 per cents of colonial wealth was wrapped by the minority citizen quarters. Razak biggest mistake then was to keep the native in the agrarian sector while the industries were left to the Chinese and Indian with remnant of the British-American. Keeping the nation into economic dichotomy was Razak biggest mistake. Razak made an unexpected exit, and Hussein Onn took over. He can't do much but had been working hard to bring justice to the whole nation. I can't really recall  what were those justice that Husein had seeded, but 

one thing that he was smart when he introduced Amanah Saham Nasional - National Trust Fund for small people to organize their fund and invest for their future. By pressure, he stepped down and Mahathir came in. 

(3)    Mahathir with Musa Hitam, both being known as the Malay Ultra, being socialist to some thought; he could see how the natives could be mold to excel faster. He wanted the native to be within at least the 30 per cents wealth control by 1990. He pushed to reform the civil service through privatization. His Privatization changed lots of things even his relationship with Musa Hitam. Mahathir turned socialist-democrat rather a pure socialist as Musa Hitam. He has Daim Zainuddin to help him build the Nation Dream - a much balanced economic distribution among all races. My closed observation of Mahathir since I was serving the Sarawak State Economic Planning Unit 1986-2002, his socialist-democrat was not that socialist-democrat as the Western and certain Eastern Block were expecting. His heart was with the people, especially the lagging natives, that was for sure. He has deep empathy onto them especially the disadvantage and poor. But he was not a socialist bending to communism. Mahathir ideological principle was socialist-

democrat. Indeed he is what Sukarno of Indonesia meant by Led-Democracy, Demokrasi Terpimpin.  In a sense, controlled democracy for the strong economic and social unity of the Nation. People agree or not, I dare to say, Mahathir had made the Chinese, Indian and to some extend the natives be there Malays, Iban or Kedazan-Dusun and others, some numbers of them had made their luxury cakes. The biggest hindside that Mahathir had made was, he had failed to instill the integrity characters among especially his successful high class Malays that he had built. These Malays they held high positions in all sorts of Mahathir privatization entities and they lost both their Malays communism  and Islamic values. The Malays adat saying: "Bulat air kerana pembentung, bulat adat kerana maufakat" is now death without a tomb.  Worst of all, they forsaken the call by the Al Quran: "In your wealth, there exist others rights". They turned greedy and corrupted. Mahathir failure was to build the high profile Malays with at least "the Japanese high integrity values - his look east greatest flavor", which indeed he neglected by mere working for the hard working and obedient workforce values.

(4)    By 2003 Mahathir has to step down. Since then, for the past 22 years, Malaysia remains politically and socio-economically chaotic, despite Mahathir came back in 2018-2020 to rectify all those setbacks, but "the fishy and sneaky Malaysians had rotten from head to tail", Mahathir was unsitted to disgrace and at last Anwar came to power with his sneaky "sky and moon promises"  maneuvering approach. Anwar to me he is the most smart in such. I love to see Anwar being coffered as the true Malaysian Father of Justice not Husein Onn on the following grounds and many other hereon:

"In Anwar era, thought in just three years - in the legal arena, as far as I could recalled, he has - First, he educated Malaysian on how to turn Prima faci into a DNAA case and made the accused clean and be trusted. Second he made Malaysian to realize the State Syariah Court is a sub-entity to the Federal Court. Parliament is above the State Legislative. So much so any

ruling passed by the State must never be above the authorities of the Parliament or the Federal Acts. Anwar by default managed to shut up all those  noises and uneasiness made by the various quarters then. Third, in lots of inter-religious picky matters, he managed to cool things down by being mump. Fourth, he also educated Malaysian even the DYPA decree could be neutralized.  Fifth, in the appointment of the Malaysian Chief Justice, he remained neutral. He shown Malaysian how that is very possible despite impossible. Last but not least, more will be coming; his Malaysian-USA Trade Agreement - despite seem many now making lot of mockery over it, he is very confident at any time, the Agreement could be null and void."

(5)    If Mahathir always attacked Malaysians' peace minds with all sorts of crazy development issues, Anwar is much above Mahathir to surprise Malaysians with lots of legal matters beyond all those normal legal understanding. He is our future real Legal Guru. Good luck Anwar.

(6)    My only concern, in 2002-2011 I used to take below RM10.00 Nasi Campur Sedap, now I need to pay for RM25.00-30.00 not really Sedap Nasi Campur. Muhammad SAW remind us: "Be mindful, a hungry dude can turned kufur ...." which I believe the term Anwar used to shout aloud which now he is not really paying attention. Now I could see people hardly survive by earning RM1,800.00 a month for a family even in the Kampong. Lots would say this is impossible. Definitely is impossible if one's looks at it from a very narrow basic need expenditure. Today cost for almost every thing, I found it "killing" for those earning bellow RM3,000.00 a month. 

(7)    My pessimistic despite my generally optimistic, peaceful Malaysians now turn stressful and "hopeless". I can start seeing sparrow turning vulture to co-exist. What a pity State we are having into the future. 

Kuching.
