Datuk Seri Najib Razak has been the prime minister for three weeks and his 1Malaysia policy has attracted a wide range of responses from Malaysians of all walks of life. It shows a thirst for something new, even if its just to criticise — constructively or destructively.
Yes, there seems to be less consensus from the people on the details of the policy. Almost everyone from the Wan’s in Kelantan to the Lim’s in Johor have a different interpretation of 1Malaysia.
Many people seem to be stuck in the old racial divisions that seem to continue plaguing the country The central disagreement with a successful 1Malaysia policy is still the age old question whether the New Economic Policy favouring the Bumiputras is still relevant today.
