GE13 Malaysia – Farish Noor


Farish Noor
Greg Lopez, New Mandala
1.       What do you think will be the most important issue that the new government must address?
National reconciliation and the re-emphasis on nation-building, education and foreign policy on the basis of universal citizenship and that idea that ALL Malaysians are Malaysian CITIZENS.
2.       What do you think is Barisan Nasional’s greatest strength?
Its power-sharing policies and culture of compromise between the parties, recognition that no component party can/should go on its own.
3.       What do you think is Barisan Nasional’s greatest weakness?
Handbag stories, cow stories, etc. All of these will be used against it as BN is facing a subaltern class war by the opposition.
4.       What do you think is Pakatan Rakyat’s greatest strength?
Anwar Ibrahim. He unites as much as he divides.
5.       What do you think is Pakatan Rakyat’s greatest weakness?
Anwar Ibrahim. He unites as much as he divides.
