M'SIAN DPM LAUNCHES PERSONAL WEBSITE
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 17 (Bernama) -- Deputy Prime Minister Najib Razak has launched his personal website at www.1Malaysia.com.my, starting
Tuesday.
In statement issued by the Deputy Prime Minister's office, the website is
intended to be a forum for all Malaysians to exchange views on the important
issues that face them as well as to promote common goals and highlight the
nation's unique diversity.
Najib in the statement said he was concerned that certain quarters were
seeking to drive wedges between Malaysia's communities for political and
personal gain and www.1Malaysia.com.my was intended as a portal through which
members of the public could directly engage in open and honest dialogue directly
with him as the Deputy Prime Minister.
"I do not believe in the politics of "deceive, divide and rule". Returning
to our long held belief in unity and mutual respect is more important now than
ever,' he said.
He said the website was for all Malaysians and he encouraged those who rely
on the Internet for information, communication, and community to join this
discussion.
"As I work to update my skills, I will need your input and response to let
me know how I am doing. The insight of the online community increasingly
reflects what is important to Malaysians and I am eager to gain that
perspective."
"I hope this website will initiate an open and vital dialogue, exploring
our Malaysian identity, purpose and direction. As a father of two teenagers, I
am both familiar with and resigned to heated debate and disagreement."
"Let's proceed as the extended family we are. Let's practice courtesy in
our discourse and make understanding the primary goal of our interaction," he
said.
Najib also encouraged people to join him in defining Malaysia and the role
Malaysians must play in its future.
"Each of us despite our differences, shares a desire for a better tomorrow.
Each of us wants opportunity, respect, friendship, and understanding. Each one
of us, in our unique way, is Malaysian. Together, we are One Malaysia. I hope we
will keep this conversation going," said Najib.
Najib also encouraged all Malaysians to join this dialogue, gain the
perspective of their fellow citizens, and provide direct feedback on how our
government can more fully respect Malaysian society.
