Madani vs P Ramasamy By Commander S THAYAPARAN (Retired) Royal Malaysian Navy

The Price of Malaysia's Racism

Malaysiakini : “This is not just about Ramasamy. It is about the integrity of public institutions that must operate free from political influence.”

- Former DAP MP for Klang Charles Santiago

COMMENT | Truth be told, I was wondering when Madani would strike back against P Ramasamy.

In 2023, when the former Penang deputy chief minister II, in a Facebook post, urged Madani to confront the reality that the civil service has become a racial bastion, placed himself in the crosshairs of not only the ketuanan (supremacist) types but also the “don’t spook the Malays” crowd, which unfortunately make up this federal government.

His racial dialectic was always a problem for DAP, even though the party never had a problem supplicating to the Malay political apparatus. However, when it came to their rights and demonising MCA for failing to represent Chinese expectations in BN, the Indian political operatives had to play dutiful handmaidens to the power brokers in DAP - all while pushing the Bangsa Malaysia kool-aid.

By creating another Indian party, all Ramasamy has done is create another opportunity for his detractors to engage in stereotypical and racial narratives of the Indian community and the leaders who claim to represent them.
