What true Malaysians want


IT’S a breath of fresh air and a source of much pride to me that a former PTD (Pegawai Pentadbiran Diplomatic) colleague, Tan Sri Alwi Jantan, has come out strongly to support our cherished national values of secularism, liberalism and pluralism, “Torchbearers for founding fathers” (Sunday Star, Sept 4). In short, he urges for greater national unity and good governance, which have been sadly declining.

As a leading member of the Group of 25 (G25) comprising eminent former senior Malay civil servants and intellectuals, Alwi (and the G25 as well) is indeed a torchbearer for our founding forefathers. He and G25 are therefore fully worthy of the whole-hearted support of all true Malaysians!
