Chase out the White Elephant Before it is too late

The success of the Pakatan Rakyat in creating a two-party demorcracy and to replace BN to form the next Malaysian government augers well only if PAS relinquishes its ideology of establishing an Islamic theocracy, the white elephant, which seems to be the fantasy of PAS conservatives in oblivious of the Malaysia's heterogenous ethnicity, beliefs and culture backgrounds.

The manifesto of Pas's March 8 GE of setting up a welfare state for Malaysia is a more practical concept and acceptable to all component parties in the PR and ought to be upheld, encouraged and polished to accommodate the different ideologies of the three component parties, especially the two extremes of PAS and DAP.

The 1999 general election's dismal result should serve a reminder and good lesson for the 3 component parties for not falling into the same predicament of losing the support of their respective supporters of their differing ideologies.

Inclusion, mutual respect and tolerance among the 3 component parties are the recipe and core ingredients in their common struggle to wrestle the control from the incumbent BN and to create an unprecedented two-party demorcracy system in Malaysia for the well being of all Malaysians, and I believe that was the original perceptions and views of the 3 component parties when they first formed BA in 1999 and PR in 2008.

To create something out of nothing and to impose one's ideology on others are totally fatal and impossible mission; it is only through the sincere and impartial sharing of power in the realistic environments of that particular nation in concerned that a coalition of any nature or mixture can thrive and prosperous in the future.

So, chase out and kill the Elephant now if you want to be in control in the 13th GE.
