Guan Eng looks to Sabah, S'wak to step up for a moderate Malaysia

DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng said only a"moderate Malaysia" that respects the rights of all races, religions and backgrounds in a diverse community can succeed in implementing the government's vision of"shared prosperity" and believes East Malaysia should play an important role.

"By adhering to the basic principle of a moderate Malaysia as outlined in the Federal Constitution, every Malaysian is part of the national fabric of unity, that is inclusive, not exclusive, and recognises differences without any discrimination, and shares responsibilities towards our problems and challenges, especially in achieving shared prosperity," he said in a statement today.

"Only a full and unequivocal support for a Moderate Malaysia that does not single out minorities to blame, but is focused on wealth-creation and equitable distribution of wealth from Sabah and Sarawak will ensure that the racists and religious extremists will not succeed in attaining power," he said.

"Even though some of these promises need time to enable our fiscal position to get back on track following financial scandals and corruption involving RM150 billion, the present federal government is the only federal government to spell out clearly what it wants to do for both Sabah and Sarawak.
