Neutralising the DAP: A Malay political strategy


Just got back from the CNY open house in Kota Kemuning. The host is the great friend of cave given college, Lau, now the successful dentist. His wife is an accountant with the GLC.

What enchanted me is his father, Lau Sr. At 77 as well as the former DAP part of (he left the celebration when Lee Lam Thye resigned in the early 1990s), he was sharp as well as seemed to know all about the Opposition party.

"Why not let some-more Malays stick upon the party? Sooner or later, there will be some-more Malays in DAP than the Chinese as well as Indians. When they form the majority, they will hold the pass positions.

"Karpal, Chen (Man Hin), Kit Siang as well as others cannot deliver what they promised. They will have to empty their particular seats when the time comes.

"Part of the reasons because Lee Lam Thye left the celebration was when his suggestion for DAP to open the doorway to some-more Malays was rejected by the top leadership. They (the leaders) were afraid should some-more Malays travel in, they will shortly become the majority race in the Chinese-dominated party," Lau Sr said.

I was startled. we remember talking to Lee a little times ago but he refused to reveal anything about his reasons for quitting.

"Simple, my friend. If the Malays dominate DAP, the energy will be in their hands. They competence also consider the party's role in domestic politics. As PAS is already the strong Malay antithesis celebration at the Parliame! nt, they competence opt to stick upon Barisan Nasional.

"And such an thought frightens people similar to Chen, Kit Siang as well as Karpal. Forget about the Indian members. They have been regularly sidelined, right from the really beginning," he added.

It makes sense. But what if the Malay-! dominate d DAP is rejected by the non-Malays, generally the Chinese?

"Of course the Chinese in DAP will not similar to it. Once they remove grip upon the celebration pass positions, they will consider some-more than twice as either to stay or opt out, say... combining another celebration or stick upon the MCA or Gerakan.

"Should the Malay-dominated DAP decides to stick upon hands with PAS, PKR as well as other antithesis parties, the Chinese will remove faith in DAP as well as this will prompt them to find other avenues. And MCA, being the largest Chinese celebration in Malaysia, is the great option.

"You should also bear in mind which while the Malays, irrespective of their domestic parties, have been talking about Malay unity, the Chinese too... in this has come to their mind... will have to recur their position, the united Malaysian Chinese."

Well, nothing's wrong with that, we admit.

So, is it correct for some-more Malays to stick upon DAP?

"Why not? This is the domestic strategy. The Malays outside Umno, PAS as well as PKR should consider this. The Malay-dominated DAP can select to stay as an Opposition or stick upon BN. It takes time, may be 10 or 20 years from now. It can be attained.

"Once the Malays have been in control, they can 'neutralise' the party... as well as there goes the government's strongest Opposition!"

Only the 30-minutes chat but it was really arousing. we am not sure how many of us share such an idea...

I remember celebration of the mass Laure Paquette's 'Political Strategy as well as Tactics' a little years ago. Will it work for Malaysia?
