One of the hallmarks of a progresive nation lies in the quality and quantity of its educated citizens. In this sense every institution of higher learning should be easily accessible to every of her citizen irregardless of colour, race or religion. God is fair. When he created human beings he never created Malays, Chinese or Indians but he created human beings to have fellowship with Him and with one another. How are we going to have fellowship with one another when we are constantly biting and trying to devour one another forgetting our original creator. How can be more educated and progressive when we continue to be suspicious of one another.
When one group continues to champion the education of its own people without any consideration or taking into account of the pluralistic nature of the country, then I'm afraid we are sending the wrong signal not only in this country but to the world. Please bear in mind the majority who went to private institutions did so because they have no choice and at the same time their parents have to squeeze out every drop so as not to deprive their sons and daughters of higher literacy. Please help your own race but at the same time give some space to others as well to prove that we are indeed a one big united happy multi-racial society where its people can co-exist harmoniously. I pray that this nation will one day be a Malaysian Malaysia.
