YOURSAY | If she’s here, Jocelyn Yow can never be Alor Setar mayor

 

YOURSAY | ‘Most of them would love to come back to Malaysia but see no future in the country.’

Meet Jocelyn Yow – the California mayor who considers Alor Setar her hometown

Vijay47: California’s Eastvale mayor Jocelyn Yow is a product of racism. Yes, the same racism we see daily from Puncak Alam to Alor Setar to Putrajaya to Kota Bharu, an attitude that seems to be flourishing with greater enthusiasm each day. And flourishing unchecked, I may add.

Yow reflects also the wonder of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans - cross either of them and a Malaysian is suddenly imbibed with ability and talent apparently non-existent while in Malaysia.

How many non-Malays are there in senior positions in government service? Maybe the real question should be how many non-Malays there are in the entire civil service. How many non-Malays holding the position of vice-chancellor in any public university?

Of course, it is possible that of the 40 percent slice of the population, there simply are no non-Malays capable enough to be appointed to positions of responsibility and authority.

Thus, we have to fall back on admirable pillars like that individual drunk on power leading the Kedah state government or his bosom buddy, the district officer with his brains installed backwards who delights in naming football stadiums or stadia or whatever after himself.

Congratulations Yow, your light is beginning to shine from beneath the bushel. Eastvale may be a small town, but it is a great start.

With your natural talent and ability, Washington need not be a distant star of wishful thinking. After all, the White House is fast becoming the preserve of minorities!

Your success gives us some measure of pride, it reminds us of what could be and alas, what is.

Salvage Malaysia: Whilst other countries can appreciate a person based on merits without being prejudicial of race, gender and age, Malaysia’s leaders are reversing into the prehistoric age. How ironic.

Enlightened Globalist: In Bolehland, important positions in government, public universities and government-linked companies (GLCs) are reserved for one race. As PAS says, it is better to be ruled by a corrupt Muslim, rather than an honest infidel.

The situation can only get worse, with decades of indoctrination based on the "ketuanan" policy. The cocktail of racial and religious bigotry is bad news for infidels.

Many non-Malays are walking the talk and emigrating. Among them was Yow. There was no way she could have been a mayor if she remained here.

Look at the rage and angst from the deep state and its supporters when the finance minister and attorney-general were infidels.

Those Malaysians who have the opportunity should migrate. It might not always a bed of roses out there, but with time, it would be a lot better than remaining in a country that practises institutional racism and refuses to sign International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (Icerd).

Migrate at least for the future of your children and grandchildren. There is no future in Bolehland for Chinese and Indians.

BlackCougar8703: Walk into virtually any postgraduate department of any Australian university and you will encounter Malaysian students, many working at the cutting edge of science, technology, IT and medical science.

Most of them would love to go back to Malaysia but see no future in the country. These people should be a gift to the nation, but instead they will forge their often-illustrious careers in Australia.

Recently, a leading surgeon informed me that when he migrated to Australia, he was immediately put in charge of a major department within a leading research hospital.

"In Malaysia, I'm just another dogsbody non-bumiputera," he informed me. "Why should I leave Melbourne?"

Can Malaysia afford this brain drain? And more importantly, do the leading politicians have any idea of the talent they're losing, and do they really care?

IndigoKite6964: How true. Malaysians are appreciated abroad but not at home, especially when they are from the minority sector. Will merits be the standard here? It does not seem so.

To return to Malaysia or not to return to Malaysia is the question. We may want to make Malaysia a better place but not until we get rid all race and religious-based parties and their politics from the country. Otherwise, it is like casting pearls before swine.

So what is to become of my beloved Malaysia? Nothing short of an implosion into a dysfunctional, corrupted, racist and religious bigotry filled country is at hand.

For that, we need to thank all the racist and religious politicians for doing a great job. Special mention to PAS and our Malay-first politicians.

Ian2003: I think we should change the predicament that we are in, and not just ranting about it.

Yes, the wall is thick and seems impenetrable but so was the Berlin Wall. We need more people to join Muda (Malaysian United Democratic Alliance) and support the cause to make it the formidable third force and thereon to change the way of our governance.

For that to happen, we need to start with ourselves - to first reach out for unity and harmony to overcome the dreaded political divide that has been placed upon us by the node of race and religion in the name of royalty.

All are not lost when we can still have a chief minister who is a non-Malay/non-Muslim, and if we can show that we have the calibre and able to win the trust of the Agong, and with enough support one day when we are successful to unite as a Malaysia race that even the prime minister position can be held by any Malaysian.

Cogito Ergo Sum: Now, for the first time in a long while, Malaysia is on the world map because of the right reason.

As Malaysians, we take immense pride that one of us has made it into the ranks of one of the most powerful nations in the world.

We wish Yow the very best and we know that the state of California is all the richer because of her.
