Malaysia was built on an ideal – that the only way this multi-ethnic and multi-religious country can thrive and prosper is if all its people choose to live together peacefully and share the nation.
THIS country belongs to all of its citizens. No one group owns it. Tunku Abdul Rahman pledged it. Tun Razak Hussein reiterated it. Our political leaders have all believed in it and it is on this basis that the independence era ethnic-based political parties came together in a coalition to run this country.
