DAP sokong PAS kaji semula sejarah
Kaji semula sejarah perlu dilakukan agar mereka yang benar-benar menyumbang ke arah kemerdekaan dapat dikenali, dihormati dan diberi pengiktirafan sewajarnya.
PETALING JAYA: Ahli Parlimen DAP-Seputeh, Teresa Kok menyokong cadangan PAS supaya Kerajaan menubuhkan jawatankuasa untuk mengkaji semula sejarah pejuangan kemerdekaan negara ini.
Dalam satu kenyataan media semalam, beliau berkata kaji semula sejarah perlu dilakukan agar mereka yang telah benar-benar menyumbang kepada usaha tersebut dapat dikenali, dihormati dan diberi pengiktirafan yang sewajarnya.
“Semua pelajar sejarah tahu pemimpin Umno bukannya satu-satunya pihak yang telah memperjuangkan kemerdekaan Tanah Melayu, sebagaimana disebarkan oleh pemimpin Umno selama ini,” katanya.
Pada hakikatnya kata beliau, mereka yang telah berjuang mencapai kemerdekaan pada ketika itu termasuklah gerakan persatuan perniagaan, persatuan pekerja, pihak media daripada pelbagai bahasa, golongan intelektual, kumpulan kebudayaan, golongan Islam dan pihak berhaluan kiri.
“Namun begitu, media arus perdana tidak memberitahu orang ramai tentang sejarah yang sebenarnya selama ini. Sesetengah aspek sejarah yang tidak dikehendaki dipadamkan manakala sesetengah tokoh yang terpilih diagung-agungkan,” katanya.
Kok yang juga Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri Kinrara menegaskan”sepastinya, sejarah sesebuah negara bukanlah sesuatu yang kemas dan rapi tetapi kompleks dan berkepelbagaian, apatah lagi bagi tanah air kita yang terdiri daripada berbilang etnik kaum.
“Oleh itu, saya menyaran Kerajaan agar menerima cadangan PAS untuk mengkaji semula sejarah secara objektif, jujur dan tidak berat sebelah kepada mana-mana pihak secara bersama.
“Umno harus hentikan tuduhan “buta sejarah” terhadap pihak lain semata-mata kerana ingin mengagung-agungkan sumbangan Umno. Kalau tidak, pada akhirnya, Umno terbukti tidak berani mengakui hakikat sejarah,” ujar beliau.
After so many exchanges of sejarah betul/salah by everyone, i begin to question my own understanding of what i studied in school tawarikh last time whether true or otherwise.Clearing up the air is good for everybody however inconvenient the truth may be.
the more hidding the truth the faster will the society being distory by the nasty deeds.
Today, if Chin Peng is a billionaire, I believe the government will probably welcome him with red carpets. Similar as how they welcome Chinese premier Wen Jia Bao & Hu Jing Tao. He‘ll then be invited to University Malaya to give speeches & sign autographs.
If Chin Peng has a lot of Renminbi in his pocket, we will not only welcome him immediately, but recognise him as the saviour of our country from Japanese & British colonial, by virtue of the truth of history.
Unfortunately, he is now very poor, therefore he is omitted from our history & memory. That’s the well known double standard of our country’s policy. That’s also the truth of our politics.
Soon, 90% of our goods ‘ll be made by Communist. Probably, we will have to use the Communist currency with Chairman Mao’s face, or at least for all international trades & commerce. We will support the world communist’s economy & continue to survive under the great umbrella of Communist Super Power. We foresee in near future, we will send our children to Communist country to learn Chinese language, the skills of trades & ideological models, & to share the success of the thinking. We will soon admire the ideology of the Great Leaders and we will learn the truth of fruitful & benefit of sociology in multiracial country.
In the next 20 years, I believe most of the world’s ethnical race will somehow admit or partly admit that their forefathers & ancestors are genetically related to Chinese, in order to gain the advantage of being respected generally & to be proud of.
In the next 30 years,we foresee, that 70% of the world populations are Chinese Language literates & 80% of Asian populations have Mandarin proficiency. Those unable to speak Chinese language will be regarded low standard. That is the reality of world megatrends.
By that time, Communist will officially take over the role of Commonwealth, as both means the same but the earlier is more popular & pragmatic than the later & has definitely more country members with richer & stronger support.
That is the reality of politics.
