in an interview with Nanyang Siang Pau recently, the BN / UMNO President reportedly said he is confident and believe that Chinese voters, little by little, are returning to BN.

Well, if true, the Chinese voters who plans to vote for BN and UMNO, deserved to be called names and threatened by people like Dr Akmal Salleh and others like him continuously for many more years to come.

Yes, the chinese truly deserve it.

Respect?

Huh, for them, respect is earned not given.

If the rest of Malaysia does not respect them, so be it.

So long they are left alone and fend for themselves, they are happy to remain in that comfort zone.

Just take the issue of the independent chinese schools and UEC exams.

No recognition, no issue.

It is only an issue once every 5 years.

In between, it is peace and quiet.

No government funding, also no issue.

The parents and businessmen will support them.

The chinese, for the pursuit of growth and wealth, doesn’t mind to be frequently reminded that they are just `pendatang’ to this country.

And that they should remain eternally grateful that they are given citizenship in this country.

Any wealth they accumulated even though it is through their own self efforts, are `given’ to them courtesy of the others.

They will forever be casted as the group, by people like Dr Mahathir that is likely to take away the land from the original inhabitants in this country and marginalise them.

If the results post the 16th GE or in the Johor and Negeri Sembilan didn’t turned up as Zahid was led to believe, i.e see a return in chinese votes for UMNO and BN’s component partners i.e MCA, he will probably blow the same tune as what Najib or his propanganda machine reportedly did, post the GE in 2013 with the headline "Apa Lagi Cina Mahu?".

Yes, many chinese rejected and did not vote for DAP in the elections in Sabah.

Yes, many chinese rejected DAP in the elections

Yes, the chinese should return in droves to vote for BN and UMNO.

Give BN / UMNO the majority mandate to govern Malaysia again.
