WE all know how it goes during the campaigning period: every candidate and political party is promising the moon and the stars if they win.
I appreciate the letter by the Penang Hindu Association – published in The Star on Nov 8 – putting forward the grievances faced by minority ethnic groups in Malaysia (“Tackling inequalities faced by minority ethnic groups”; online at bit.ly/star_ethnic). There was also a letter published on May 14 discussing minority languages (“Plight of minority languages’, The Star, May 14; online at bit.ly/star_minorities).
