I fully support BN/UMNO Youth chief Khairy Jamaludin stand that BN must continue to look after the interests of the Chinese community despite losing their support in the Sarawak election.BN has to think of long terms effect on the coalition.
Some quarters of UMNO leaders maybe of the opinion BN can still retain the power despite losing substantial support of Chinese in the coming 13th General Election.But what about 14th and subsequent GE,if there is just a 10% Malays swing,BN will collapse forever.Any untoward event or incident is going to spark off the swing espeacially at the moment Malaysians quest for the two-party system is imminent.The time that BN/UMNO can enjoy the 70% support from rural community under whatever circumtances is over,moreso in future is unlikely.We must agree that PR is going all out to our strongholds and making in-roads compare to decade ago.Many cannot accept DAP leader to become Prime Minister at present,but there is a large segment of people want to give Pas leader a try.It is imperative that DAP leader is not going to become Prime Minister,but Pas want,and only DAP can help PAS to achieve this goal.It is only UMNO can help MCA/GERAKAN/SUPP to fence off DAP.It is not much of monetary or manpower support,it is more of change of certain national policy.The policy must be seem to be fair and just to all communities,and this must be demonstrated through action.
Eventhough BN has won in many of the recent by-elections but PR is still showing up its strength.This is a cler signal that transformation is not enough to meet the present needs and circumtances.We all going to become dinosaur in Malaysia if we still resist to change.It is either we change or to be changed.
Khairy has said that Sarawak election is a wake-up call.It will have an effect on the general election and we have to do more.
Therefore Barisan needs to study why it lost the support of the urban community and take immediate remedial action.
