Kamalanathan and 1Malaysia

2 days ago sub-headline caught my attention and subsequenly I continue reading into the news.

BN candidate for Hulu Selangor by-election, Kamalanathan, said he was chosen over the other potential candidates because he's more suitable and that he represent the concept of 1Malaysia, largely promoted and shout about by our PM, Najib Razak.

First he said his name, Kamalanathan itself already representing 1Malaysia, namely Kamal for Malays, Alan for Chinese and Nathan for Indians. Combining all these made his name Kamalanathan. At first I thought that's a good try to try build rapport with locals, and he's using the hotly promoted concept of 1Malaysia to try win some votes.

As I read further, it made me wonder if he really understand the concept of 1Malaysia, or he's just saying it for the sake of saying. Apart from that, he doesn't really mention another word or concept of 1Malaysia, and that whatever he talked is just rubbish as usuan from a useless party.

I think maybe he's right. His name representing all races, but does that mean he's a son-of-bitch? Maybe his parents consist of all races he doesn't know who his real father and/or mother is. Therefore he gave his own name with all 3 races so it will not go wrong. He can be anyone of them!

Good job Kamal + Alan + Nathan = KAMALANATHAN!
