Our country has recently seen the third peaceful power transition, penning a brand-new page for democratic transformation. Dong Zong is delighted to see the ending of the 15th Election stalemate and herewith conveys its best wishes to Anwar bin Ibrahim for assuming the 10th Prime Minister of Malaysia. In the meantime, Dong Zong anticipates the guarantee of sustaining mother tongue education and safeguard of diversity inherence of the nation.

 

Dong Zong understands, the new government shoulders heavy responsibilities in the face of internal and external crucibles as well as challenges, and is obliged to brave the difficulties. It is to renavigate the country to the right track and uphold cohesion. We therefore wish, the new coalition government would unite concertedly for economic advancement and transformation. Furthermore, while striving for the welfare and interest of the nation, we hope the new government will knock the nation’s socks off and show them the light at the other end of the tunnel.

 

Simultaneously, we likewise hope that the new government mandated will put their manifesto into practice; which are, namely, to safeguard the development of multi-stream education and defend the right of mother tongue education. We believe, social harmony and long-term stability can only be achieved in Malaysia when diversity inherence discerned and diverse and open governance idea at play.
