On several occasions, Malaysians even had to dip into their retirement funds to put food on the table. With take-home pay being so low compared to of skyrocketing prices of goods, it is common to see people working two to three jobs just to get by. Others look towards greener pastures overseas, hoping to build a better life out there.
Unfortunately, what we see today is merely a symptom of a broken system. The country’s wealth and riches are concentrated among the privileged few. Along with that, the power to influence the structure and how our nation’s administration and economy are organised. Thereby, effectively creating a nation of double standards or Dua Darjat. Two sets of rules and realities for two sets of people — one for the BN/PN political elite and connected VVIPs, while another for everyone else.
And to do this, no political parties can go at it alone. In fact, it cannot even be achieved by political parties alone. It will require a broad-based citizens’ movement that share similar values cutting cross different segments of our society — politicians, civil societies, unions, students’ associations, trade federations, activists, professionals, business owners, and many more.
Let us be better than that. Let us come together and formulate a shared agenda to build a better Malaysia. Of course, each person’s vision of an ideal society could be different. But the essence of a democratic society is about finding common ground and where our interests align.
