COMMENT | We look on helplessly because we let politics be a spectator sport

COMMENT | Soon enough they are going to announce the new leader of the government and many will be unhappy - if not outright disgusted - by the choice.

People asked me who I expect and I said a right-wing Malay male from a racist party. Because that’s all I have ever known. Which individual fella it turns out to be is probably going to be a variation on the ‘ketuanan’ theme.

Just imagine - 64 years of Merdeka and we have only ever had racial parties holding the top post and there is every sign that we will continue to do so...
