So the gauntlet has been thrown down for the non-Malay leaders in Barisan Nasional to explain to their respective communities the necessity for having and supporting the New Economic Policy. Go ahead, explain in good details and as widely as possible. The people need to understand the policy fully.
You must be honourable in your political endeavour. You need to be transparent with the voters. Explain to them the NEP and tell them about your stand. If the voters believe in you and the NEP principles, they will vote for you. Don't keep the voters in the dark because you are afraid to lose votes.
As to whether the non-Malays accept the NEP now, the next general election will be the best test. If the non-Malay candidates win en masse, it testifies that the non-Malay communities support the NEP. However, if the non-Malay candidates fared badly, then the reverse must be true.
