The One Malaysia program has been doubted and questioned as the recent racist remark has been made my Datuk Nasir Safar at the One Malaysia seminar held in Malacca recently. The remark has been offensive although Nasir claimed it to be unintentional. This is an extremely huge mistake as it would counteract all the sweat and blood the Government has put in order to make the One Malaysia a success. It is believed that the only way to make this One Malaysia program a success is first for the citizens of Malaysia to stop reminding the other races of where their ancestors were originated as the saying goes, let bygones be bygones. We are all true born Malaysians. Though we may be a Malay, a Chinese, an Indian, or any other race or ethnic groups, we are still born as a Malaysian. This definitely gives us the right to ask for slightly a fair share of equal treatment from the Government. How is this ungrateful of us? If we are to be ONE, we should be treated as ONE. Let this issue be an eye opener to the people of Malaysia so that they will realize what it takes to make a country united.
