How true Nades....From John Santiago, via FaceBook:<br /><br />How true Nades. Not to speak ill of the dead is not just an Asian value but a universally accepted norm of respect.<br /><br />Chin Peng is a man who did wrong to others. Paradoxically, he was also a man who seemed to be wronged.<br /><br />He helped the British colonialists in their fight against the invading Japanese in return for independence of his country of birth, Malaya, and a recognition for his Communist Party of Malaya (CPM) as a legitimate political entity. The British apparently agreed to accede to these demands in return for Chin Peng's help in their war against the Japanese but the colonial master turned the back on him, forcing him to resort to a guerrilla warfare against the occupiers - this time the Brits.<br /><br />It is for the historians to determine whether he was wrong or whether he was wronged. But what is against the grain of justice and human decency is the denial by the government of an independent Malaysia to deny him the right to return to his homeland even after he had signed a peace treaty and agreed to lay down his arms. What is even more inhumane is the refusal of the authorities to allow his remains to be brought to his birthplace for a proper burial.<br /><br />In his farewell letter Chin Peng wrote:<br /><br />In the final analysis, I wish to be remembered simply as a good man who could tell the world that he had dared to spend his entire life in pursuit of his own ideals to create a better world for his people.<br /><br />"It is irrelevant whether I succeeded or failed, at least I did what I did. Hopefully the path I had walked on would be followed and improved upon by the young after me. It is my conviction that the flames of social justice and humanity will never die."<br /><br />Chin Peng may well be acknowledged as a terrorist but there were others who deemed him as a true patriot who fought for the freedom of his country through the only means that was at his disposal in the face of a denial of recognition of his party as a legitimate political organisation eligible to partake in the democratic process.<br /><br />Only historian can make a proper judgment of him. In the meantime, I hope I would not be judged wrong, in keeping with the tradition of decency, if I wished his soul to rest in peace.cy.leowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11584901733097116133noreply@blogger.com
