Best Model
Seorang wartawan tempatan menulis satu artikel mengenai orang Arab yg telah kehilangan kecermelangan silam. . Untuk sebab terakhir yg beliau senaraikan, beliau menulis kenyataan berikut :
• Most Arabs do not have natural resources. Except for a few oil-rich countries, we are poor.
This would have been an acceptable reason a couple of decades ago. In the digital age, unleashed, well-trained brains can make a poor nation rich. Look at Malaysia. In two decades, a deprived land has become one of the high-tech, information-age economies. Tailor-made democratic constitution and civic institutions helped the rise of one of Asia’s best tigers. Malaysia is now doing better than Arab countries on education, tourism and knowledge industry.
Kemudian beliau menulis sebuah artikel lanjutan sebagai menjawap komen setengah pembaca yg mengingatkan beliau tentang kejayaan Turki dan Dubai.
Hari ini di ruangan beliau di siarkan pendapat pembaca mengenai artikel ini. Antara yg menarik perhatian ialah komen berikut:
Malaysia is an Asian, not Arab country. Its progress was achieved mainly by the Indian and Chinese communities. Turkey and Dubai have the right attitude toward humanity that is more important than any religious attitude.
