AT the Umno General Assembly last week, a delegate from Kedah said that looking at recent incidents in this country, it would be good to revive the spirit of Rukun Negara. Many others have made the same suggestion but to no avail.
Instead, the country has been introduced to one slogan after another with each change of leadership, forgetting the great efforts that were made in the aftermath of the May 1969 riots to create a national ideology that would rally all the races together to work towards achieving the common objective of a united nation.
