马来学者达祖丁<星洲网>撰文:
毫无意义的国庆日

来源:<星洲网>“横眉冷眼”专栏


本文原载于<星洲网>(华文版与英文版),原标题是:毫无意义的国庆日(A meaningless Merdeka)。

作者达祖丁(Tajuddin Rasdi,上图左)是一名思想开放的马来学者,目前是我国一所私立大学—-思特雅大学(University College Sedaya International,简称UCSI)教授。

作者是应<星洲网>邀约在我国国庆来临的时刻撰写的一篇特稿。他在文中很直率地表达了“我看到这个国家没有希望了。马来人最终将摧毁自己和其他人。”、“我可以肯定地说大马是一个失败者。”、“现在,最小和最不具意识形态的政党完全背叛了人们的信任,而这个政党的首领正在策划一出20世纪90年代的复出秀。”这样的鲜明立场和观点。

作者在文中着重提出了他认为“可能重燃大马的奇迹”的3个“奇想”。他的这3个“奇想”,从我国的政治环境及发展形势看来,是难以实现的,却尽显他作为一名想要活得有尊严的自由派学者所表达的反对以马来种族为中心的政治主张的爱国情操。

作者的这种立场和观点,肯定在马来社会(特别是对马来统治集团来说)是“离经叛道”,或许会令那些曾经欢呼“509改朝换代了”、“种族霸权垮台了”、“政党轮替实现了”、“新的马来西亚诞生了”以及那些声称“为了大局着想,或忍痛或含泪支持马哈迪”而今迷茫彷徨、不知所措的“社会改革者”感到汗颜无地自容。

以下是<星洲网>的华文译稿和mysinchew.com的英文原文——



我为大马人、马来人以及那些在学术、宗教和政治机构掌权者,写了21年的想法、批评和建议,我再也没有什么想说了。大马正迈向一个毁灭的道路,而马来穆斯林是拖垮此事的人。我已经说过并提出了很多其他方式,但我已经无法提供更多的意见。这是我写过的最难以下笔的文章,我作为学者的职业生涯中,第一次想要致电星洲日报以推掉这份请求。我看到这个国家没有希望了。马来人最终将摧毁自己和其他人。大马唯一的希望在沙巴和砂拉越。如果他们放弃了伙伴关系,那么大马的想法只是一个笑话。如果我年轻30岁,我会把我的家人带离这个国家并安置在其他国家或至少邻近的新加坡以及沙巴和砂拉越。至少那里还可以喝到拉茶。

宗教司说的话听起来像一个可怕的电影情节中的流氓且不受其同僚的控制,马来人将继续以这种方式接受教育。资深的马来政治人物和商人继续掌握着这个国家的命运,旧大马刚刚动过心脏绕道手术获得了新生命。学者仍在算着他们的H指数和SCOPUS资料库的论文,这些学术机构将继续成为与社会和政治发展无关的实体,从纳税人的钱和他们良好的自我感觉中获得养分。捍卫马来人的宗教、学术和政治,将让国家陷入无意识状态。

我的编辑想知道,还可以改变什么?好吧,我不再有任何想法,除了说……拯救你和你的家人以渡过难关,绑紧腰带并策略性地将孩子送往国外。我现在开始认真地考虑将我的两名孩子送往国外。大马没有任何东西值得有尊严的人留下。当一名对印度人的历史知之甚少的宗教司可以做出如此简单和种族主义的言论,并在没有获得其同僚的谴责或提醒的情况下无事脱身,那么这个游戏已经结束了。当他呼吁努力工作和敬业的华人教育组织违法并罔顾他们60年的贡献,还谈什么尊严?更糟糕的是,当这名宗教资本主义的代理人来到这个国家,不仅侮辱了其他宗教,还包括我们几代人的社群的存在,部长们与他吃着晚餐脸上挂着笑容的照片,这真的很糟糕。然后有一个以伊斯兰为名的政党不断向追随者灌输伊斯兰情谊比公民更重要,而那些反对传教士的人是伊斯兰的敌人,然后警察静静地坐在一旁没有任何反应,还有什么好说的?

可以肯定地说大马是一个失败者

我训练自己成为专家,对我所知的每一件事情制定成败。我也可以专业地预测别人所做的事情的成败。我可以肯定地说大马是一个失败者。它在2018年5月9日之前惨败,它在仅仅过了一年之后又再次面临更糟的落败。起初,这失败是马来选民不愿意改变造成的。然后,两个声名狼藉的马来政党的联姻加剧了这种失败。现在,最小和最不具意识形态的政党完全背叛了人们的信任,而这个政党的首领正在策划一出20世纪90年代的复出秀。

除非出现奇迹,否则大马将在三种类型的国家中,成为第一个被列入“第四世界“的国家。我们将无处可走,成了“无”,我们被经济、教育、宗教的旧关联困住了,也不尊重其他人和国家。当有一天,穆斯林被拒绝踏入世界上大多数国家,就像他们喜欢的讲师一样,就像马来言语所说的:已经跌倒了还遇到楼梯(祸不单行)或已经跌倒了才后知后觉,将会成为严峻的现实。

可能重燃大马的奇迹的3件事

什么是可能重燃大马的奇迹?只有三件事。首先,通过奇迹般的冲击,公民社会和其他现有政党进行重整,并推出70名独立候选人以推翻希盟的候选人,并与沙巴和砂拉越有尊严的政党结合,然后就可能有机会。找到70名有诚信且致力于国家建设的各族候选人有多难?他们的名字已经在我的电脑记录名单中。公民社会、优秀及具备国家意识的非政府组织可以与在上届选举中失去支持的老牌政党的草根基层一起合作。当第15届大选越来越靠近时,希盟委任的公民社会领袖必须回到他们原来的岗位。

第二个奇迹是让10万名或更多马来孩子考取统考,我们必须持续追踪这些孩子并给予他们支援,以让他们从持有古老偏见和来自公立学校的穆斯林和马来人手中拯救我们的国家。这就是为什么马来政党贬低统考,因为新马来人掌握三语并能够与中国和西方世界联系,他们将根据他们在独中时与其他社群互动的经验来重新制定新的国家建设。不管希盟政府承认与否,我都认为统考是唯一可以拯救这个国家的因素。被大部分自己种族的人拒绝的孩子将复兴大马的概念,因此,我们必须确保统考的生存和发展。那些在国际学校接受国际课程教育的孩子,将成为治愈国家的另一股力量,他们也必须获得保护和推广,以让家长有能力负担得起。就让公立学校深陷在他们的问题之中。

第三个奇迹是私立高等教育机构。这些机构已经通过了经济挑战,现在可以通过混合的学术组织来引领国家,以取代以种族为中心及与学术界无关的公立大学。如果这些私立大学能够醒悟并以正确的思维方式和想法来满足年轻马来人的思想,那么未来将由他们主导。私立大学必须摆脱赚钱的心态并表明他们可以取代公立大学及自成一格。私立大学的学者可以成立自己的教授理事会,并制定真正有影响力的研究和策略以推动大马未来的50年,并将学生的才能用于研究和连接世界的行业之中。未来的行业将不受地理限制,并且不需要像马来市议会这样的组织来批准新建工程。新的“工厂”在网络空间里并可以离岸操作。各国将与这些没有表现出任何种族和宗教优越感的学生一起工作并避开那些有优越感的人。世界属于私人企业,因为政府因旧政治而无法改变。

第四个奇迹(<人民之友>注:星洲网的华译文有误,这里原文是The third miracle,应为“上述第三个奇迹”)是私人公司和企业在不受地理限制的世界中汇集资源,以提供财务和基础设施资源,以帮助思路清晰和努力工作的毕业生和年轻技术人才摆脱任何政府的“要求”。同样的,政府不控制网络空间和离岸交易。大马人将在世界各地工作、生活、玩乐和进行膜拜,同时仍然扎根于“祖国”。

这个国庆日对于我国来说是一个毫无意义的国庆日,因为它陷入了旧政治思维中。但是,对于所有大马人来说,这个国庆日是一个新的国庆日,他们热爱这个对彼此信仰和文化深深尊重并互相合作以实现共享繁荣的想法。我们需要的国庆日是摆脱旧的游戏规则并迈向新的全球化游戏规则,以让我们从90年代的枷锁中获得解脱。为了拯救大马,我们的孩子必须“离开现在的大马”并拥抱未来的大马,这个大马将跨越全球但同时根植于我们传统信仰和文化之中。

A meaningless Merdeka

By Prof Dr. Mohd Tajuddin Mohd Rasdi


“This Merdeka is a meaningless Merdeka for the nation as it entrenches itself into old political mindsets. ”

After 21 years of writing ideas, criticisms and advice for Malaysians, Malays and those in power in academic, religious and political institutions, I have no more to give. Malaysia is on a certain road of destruction with the Malay Muslims driving it to the ground. I have looked hard and deep into many other ways than I have mentioned and I have no more ideas to bring to the table.

This is the most difficult article to write for me and I have thought many times to just call up Sin Chew and refuse a requested writing for the first time in my entire career as an academic. I see no more hope for this country. The Malays will eventually destroy itself and others with it. The only hope for the idea of a Malaysia lies in the nations of Sabah and Sarawak. If these two quit the partnership, then the idea of Malaysia is just a joke. If I were younger by three decades, I would take my family outside this country and resettle in others or at least in neighboring Singapore and the nations of Sabah and Sarawak. At least they still have teh tarik there.

With muftis sounding like gangsters in a terrible movie plot and unchecked by their patrons, the Malays will continue to be educated in that manner. With veteran Malay politicians and businessmen helming the fate of the country, the Old Malaysia has just been given a new lease of life by a heart-bypass. With academia still counting their H-indexes and SCOPUS papers, these institutions of learning will continue to be irrelevant entities to social and political development getting fat by the tax payers money and their own sense of self grandeur. Religion, academia and politics of the Malays are safely entrenched to bring the country to a precipice of oblivion.

The editors of this article wants to know from me what can be changed? Well, I no longer have any more ideas except to say…save yourself and your family by hunkering down, tightening the stomach and strategically plan for the children to be placed outside this country.

I have now begun to seriously think about such a strategy for two of my children. There is nothing here in Malaysia that would be anything of a dignified existence of a person.

When a mufti with extremely low knowledge on the history of the Indian people can make simplistic and racist statements about them, and get away without any reprimand or reminder from his patrons, then the game is ended. When he calls on hardworking and dedicated groups of Chinese educationist to be outlawed without measuring their six decades of contribution, what dignity is there left? Worse, when a peddler of religious capitalism comes to this country blaring insults not only to other religions but also the presence of our own community of generations of people, ministers have dinner with him with smiling photo ops. Susah-lah ini macam.

Then there is a political party with Islam as its name spew venoms of Islamic brotherhood being more important than citizenry and that those who oppose the peddler of religious evangelism from another country as enemies of Islam, and the police sits quietly without any reaction. Apa lagi nak cerita?

I have trained myself to be an expert at identifying success and failure in everything I do. I can also expertly predict success and failure in some things others do. I can definitely say that Malaysia is a failure. It was failing badly before May 9th 2018, it has failed even worse after merely over a year.

In the beginning, this failure was caused by a reluctance of the Malay voters to change. Then, this failure was fueled by the marriage of the two discredited Malay parties. Now, the trust of the people has been totally betrayed by the smallest and least ideological party which happens to helm the leadership and is engineering a 1990s come-back formula.

Unless a miracle happens, Malaysia will be the first country to be listed as the ‘fourth world’ of a three world category. We will go nowhere, be no ‘thing’ and simply become stuck to the ground with our old ideas about economy, education, religion and having no sense of dignity to others and the world. When one day, Muslims will be rejected entry into most countries of the world as with their favorite penceramah, then the old Malay proverb of sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga or sudah jatuh baru tertenggadah becomes a stark reality.

What is this miracle that may reignite the fires of Malaysia? Only three things. First, by a stroke of miracle, the civil society restrategize itself with other existing political parties and puts up 70 independent candidates to oust the cancerous elements in PH and combine with the dignified parties of Sarawak and Sabah, then there may be a chance.

How hard is it to find 70 credible candidates of all races dedicated to nation building? The names are already on my computer list. The civil society, good and nation-conscious NGOs can work together with the grassroots of rejuvenated veteran parties that lost their shorts in the last election. Those civil leaders appointed by the PH must return to the fold when the time of GE15 draws closer.

The second miracle would be 100,000 Malay children and more to come out of their UEC education and these children must be tracked and given support so that they can be the savior of a nation from the old bigotry of Muslims and Malays in the public schools.

That is why Malay political parties despise the UEC as the new Malays who are trilingual and globalized networked with China and the West will reformulate new national constructs based on their times with the other communities in the UEC schools.

Regardless of whether the PH government will recognize or not, I see the UEC as the only savior of this nation. The sons and daughters rejected by the majority of their own race will come back to revive the idea of Malaysia and thus, we Malaysians must ensure that the UEC survives and thrive.

Those of our sons and daughters educated in the international schools with international curriculum would be the other force that can cure an ailing nation, and that too must be protected and expanded so that it becomes affordable to send our children too. Leave the public schools entrenched in its own issues and problems.

The third miracle would be the private education tertiary institutions. These institutions have gone through the economic gauntlet and is now secure with a mixed group of academics to lead the nation where public universities fail in their own ethno-centric constructs of self-delusion and irrelevant academia. If these private universities can wake up to fill the minds of young Malaysians with the right mind set and ideas to lead the future, than the future can be theirs for the taking.

Private universities must get out of their balance sheet mindset and show that they can take over what was left out by the big brother universities and strike out on their own. The private university academics can form their own Professor Council and produce strategies for real impactful research and ideas that can move Malaysia 50 years into the future and pool its student talents to research and recharge industries linking the world. The future industries are in a mapless world and do not require a Malay Majlis Perbandaran to give the okay to start a factory. The new ‘factories’ are in cyberspace and offshore. Countries will work with these students who do not display any sense of ethnic or religious superiority complex and shun those that do. The world belongs to the private enterprise as government fails to change because of Old Politics.

The third miracle would be the pooling of resources by private companies and enterprises across a maples world to provide financial and infra-structure backings to clear thinking and hard working graduates and young skilled individuals freeing itself from any governmental ‘requirements’. Again, governments do not control cyberspace and off shore dealings. Malaysians will be everywhere in the world working, living, playing and worshipping while still rooted to their ‘tanah tumpah darah ku’.

This Merdeka is a meaningless Merdeka for the nation as it entrenches itself into old political mindsets. But this Merdeka is a new Merdeka for all Malaysians who love the idea of living with deep respect to each other’s faith and cultures and working with each other for mutual prosperity.

What we need is a Merdeka from the old rules of the game towards a new game play of global dimension that frees us from the old 90s ball and chains.

To save this Malaysia, our children must ‘leave the present Malaysia’ and embrace the future Malaysia that lies beyond its shores into a global and universal construct rooted in our traditional faiths and cultures.

[ 漫画新解 ]
新冠病毒疫情下的马来西亚
舔美精神患者的状态

年轻一辈人民之友有感而作


注:这“漫画新解”是反映一名自诩“智慧高人一等”而且“精于民主理论”的老姐又再突发奇想地运用她所学会的一丁点“颜色革命”理论和伎俩来征服人民之友队伍里的学弟学妹们的心理状态——她在10多年前曾在队伍里因时时表现自己是超群精英,事事都要别人服从她的意愿而人人“惊而远之”,她因此而被挤出队伍近10年之久。

她在三年前被一名年长工委推介,重新加入人民之友队伍。可是,就在今年年初她又再故态复萌,尤其是在3月以来,不断利用部落格的贴文,任意扭曲而胡说八道。起初,还以“不同意见者”的姿态出现,以博取一些不明就里的队友对她的同情和支持,后来,她发现了她的欺骗伎俩无法得逞之后,索性撤下了假面具,对人民之友一贯的“反对霸权主义、反对种族主义”的政治立场,发出歇斯底里的叫嚣,而暴露她设想人民之友“改旗易帜”的真面目!

尤其是在新冠病毒疫情(COVID-19)课题上,她公然猖狂跟人民之友的政治立场对着干,指责人民之友服务于中国文宣或大中华,是 “中国海外统治部”、“中华小红卫兵”等等等等。她甚至通过强硬粗暴手段擅自把我们的WhatsApp群组名称“Sahabat Rakyat Malaysia”改为“吐槽美国样衰俱乐部”这样的无耻行动也做得出来。她的这种种露骨的表现足以说明了她是一名赤裸裸的“反中仇华”份子。

其实,在我们年轻队友看来,这名嘲讽我们“浪费了20年青春”[人民之友成立至今近20年(2001-9-9迄今)]并想要“拯救我们年轻工委”的这位“徐大姐”,她的思想依然停留在20年前的上个世纪。她初始或许是不自觉接受了“西方民主”和“颜色革命”思想的培养,而如今却是自觉地为维护美国的全球霸权统治而与反对美国霸权支配全球的中国人民和全世界各国(包括马来西亚)人民为敌。她是那么狂妄自大,却是多么幼稚可笑啊!

她所说的“你们浪费了20年青春”正好送回给她和她的跟班,让他们把她的这句话吞到自己的肚子里去!

新冠病毒疫情下的马来西亚
"公知"及其跟班的精神面貌

注:这“漫画新解”是与<人民之友>4月24日转贴的美国政客叫嚣“围剿中国”煽动颠覆各国民间和组织 >(原标题为<当心!爱国队伍里混进了这些奸细……>)这篇文章有关联的。这篇文章作者沈逸所说的“已被欧美政治认同洗脑的‘精神欧美人’”正是马来西亚“公知”及其跟班的精神面貌的另一种写照!

"舔美"狗狗的角色

编辑 / 来源:人民之友 / 网络图库

注:这“漫画新解”是与《察网》4月22日刊林爱玥专栏文章<公知与鲁迅之间 隔着整整一个中国 >这篇文章有关联的,这是由于这篇文章所述说的中国公知,很明显是跟这组漫画所描绘的马来西亚的“舔美”狗狗,有着孪生兄弟姐妹的亲密关系。

欲知其中详情,敬请点击、阅读上述文章内容,再理解、品味以下漫画的含义。这篇文章和漫画贴出后,引起激烈反响,有人竟然对号入座,暴跳如雷且发出恐吓,众多读者纷纷叫好且鼓励加油。编辑部特此接受一名网友建议:在显著的布告栏内贴出,方便网友搜索、浏览,以扩大宣传教育效果。谢谢关注!谢谢鼓励!
