Threading Malay unity talks and racist remarks

Following the revelation by Khir Toyo I have to agree Lim Kit Siang that it is Malaysian unity that has to be emphasized. The unity exemplified by the voters had brought in the strongest opposition legislators post 1969. Many UMNO leaders may claim that there is no unity.

I beg to differ. What they see as disunity to me, is merely difference in political leanings, regardless whether a Malay supports UMNO, PAS or PKR. Come to think of it, there were already rumours that there is going to be a demonstration by grassroot PAS Youth in front of their headquarters.

Doesn't that that cause disunity among PAS members? Is UMNO trying to create a discord within PAS at a time when UMNO itself is having problems.

Khir Toyo's statement on the talks is displays a high tendency of racism. This is despite the fact that the non Malays would never threaten the position of the Malays. Plus they are not in a position to do so. So the very notion of Malay unity, I believe, is only meant to be a tool for UMNO to use as a last resort when it undergoes its lowest point.
