#UnityForProgress I recently shared my views in an interview with Berita Harian on His Majesty's important titah calling for Malaysia to maintain its unity government. The King emphasized that unity across diverse communities is crucial for stability and advancement.  In the interview, I spoke about how the unity government model has allowed us to navigate challenging times and keep the needs of the people as our top priority. When different parties come together in the spirit of cooperation over conflict, we can achieve so much more for our nation. While different views will always exist in a democracy, periods of crisis like the ongoing pandemic require us to put aside differences. As the King rightly said, the unity government deserves to be respected and upheld. Only through unity can we effectively address shared challenges and maximize our potential. Looking ahead, we must strengthen the bonds of trust between all Malaysians. Unity is our strength when we work as one towards goals of justice, shared prosperity and national progress. The King's reminder to maintain unity could not be timelier or more important. #UnityGovernment #NationalUnity #Progress #King #Titah #Pandemic #Crisis #Diversity #Justice #Prosperity #Stability #Cooperation #Trust #SharedFuture #NationBuilding #Politics #Leadership #Malaysia https://lnkd.in/dZcc5dtz

My essay on class coalitions and it's effect on Malaysia's development trajectory! "Malaysia’s democratic capitalism has had an unconventional path compared to many of its Third World counterparts. British capital was able to diffuse any attempt at anti-colonial liberation by legitimizing a coalition of elites made up of the Malay aristocracy, state bureaucrats, and non-Malay — primarily Chinese — comprador capital. This first coalition had its political and economic interests aligned with British capital, and thus did not disrupt the colonial economic order. The New Economic Policy and the consolidation of state power in the hands of the UMNO brought about a second ruling coalition comprising the Malay statist bourgeoisie and bureaucrats. This second coalition attempted to sideline Chinese and British capital in order to legitimize its rule through development and affirmative action. Contradictions in the NEP era (1970–90) domestic economy forced a reversal of the UMNO’s initial vision of economic nationalism. Foreign capital was welcomed and deepened its roots in the Malaysian economy as it worked hand-in-hand with a third coalition — one of conglomerate capital and state finance capital.
