Coalition government - a
term which keep popping out during Malaysian and some citizens from the
European Union daily activity. After reading the Cameroon biography my thoughts
on any coalition government between right and left become more despised. Maybe we
can compare both UK and Malaysia coalition government and see what the
similarities and disparities is.
There are three important
aspects when we want to discuss conservatism. These aspects are personal
freedom, community traditions and the role of government. During Cameroon
period, the major erosion on personal freedom were GAY MARRIAGE. Most people
believe that GAY MARRIAGE is a sign of support personal freedom, then
government should legalize it. The first part of the above statement is true but
the part about the government was terribly wrong. Allowing the hand of
government to enter personal freedom actually is a sign of government
expansion. Why should the state hold the power to recognize the people's
lifestyle? Left wing politicians like to say "let people live their
life" but ended up with the government enforcing the law to
"recognize" people's personal life. What an irony.
Second will be community
traditions, for hundreds of years British are built up under the influence of
Christianity. Therefore, marriage means a sacred union between a man and a
woman. However, under the attack from Marxist warrior, now British are starting
to dismantle this sacred union, and Cameroon push for GAY MARRIAGE should let
us consider he should not be a self-proclaimed conservative figure. GAY
MARRIAGE should be considered as ultimate personal freedom therefore state
should not involve. In the meantime, the GAY MARRIAGE also should not be
allowed to adopt any children, because this will deprive the children of having
a real mother. Below are the link that he support such action to destroy
the family:

A trojan horse in UK?
Thirdly would be the role
of government. Conservatives believe in small government but based on what
Cameroon biography says I feel he doesn't look like a person who believes in
this value. He says he believes in “BIG SOCIETY”, but I sense this as a trick
to cover the intention that his real motive is trying to make the government
become bigger and bigger. No doubt the best way to expand the government
role would be to increase social welfare and most of the time social welfare
consumes more money and energy when compared to defense spending.
Most importantly, state
social welfare more often brings harm to people. The reason was obvious and
simple because people misuse the system. In the past decade we often can
see some UK local newspapers reporting Muslim Migrants sucking on the UK
welfare system. They come to the UK with a huge family but refuse to work and
ask for free cash, a free house and free food. Those situations have not
stopped and have continued to happen until now. No doubt a collaboration
government between left and right showcase how the right lose their value.
Then, lets us look at
Malaysia. In Malaysia we don’t have any political party which advocate on small
government and support on personal freedom. I think 99% of political party in
Malaysia are favor on big federal government. Then in Malaysia when we hear
about conservative that mean protect Malay Special Right, enhance federal power
to enforce Malay superiority doctrine. The former prime minister tries to
reduce the sense of race class, so he introduces the idea of T20, M40 and B40. However,
he loses the General Election in 2018 and now serve his sentence on corruption
case. Then during 2018, Dr Mahathir decided to
cooperate which he enemy DAP which shock the Malaysian and mark the starting of
losing its value on both sides.
DAP is supporting on Malaysian
for Malaysia, but Dr Mahathir represent the uphold on Malay Special Right.
Since the cooperate announce DAP quickly abandon their value and never intended
to challenge the Malay Special Right. However, this collaboration only last two
years then it collapses. During the period of 2018 until 2020, I think the
major winner would be the Malay conservative because they managed to castrate
their major enemy in Malaysia politic realm. Before became a part of federal
government DAP did advocate on reduce on government size which mean reduce the
staff which employ by the federal government or closing some unnecessary department
but when their become the members in the federal government, they also throw
this idea from the bus.
Then if you ask me what does UMNO,
and other Malay parties lose when their form a collaboration with a political
party which never uphold Malay Special Rights. I think the only possible answer
should be they will bombard by some Muslim voters?
Maybe we the non-Muslim are the
biggest loser during the period from 2018 until now? (1200, 21/6/2023)
