Malaysian student wants answers

Malaysian student wants answers

Dear Sir

To keep silence is easier than to unite with others, especially with those who are now campaigning and challenging the injustice and inhumanity imposed by the Malaysian Government. Why? Let all of us think about it.

After I have read through the letters "MSA should make a stand" and "Suggestions for Solidarity Week Organizers" written by "Overseer" and "Yes and Just Action" respectively, several questions that I want to ask that I want to know are as follows:
1.Why there is a disunity among ourselves (Malaysians)? Why there are so many groups existing in this campus, MSA and MSSA, old left and new left and also others?
2.What sort of role can we play in order to help for social-economic-political changes?
3.Is it really true that the majority of our people in Malaysia are being exploited and consequently suffering?
4.How valid it is by saying that 'Political ideology is the main key to a meaningful life"? What does it precisely mean by a "meaningful life'?
5.What sort of things that we have got to understand?
6.What do we mean by "social class"?
7.What do we mean by "to promote social-economic-political awareness"?
8.Is politics really a bad thing?

I hope someone can voluntarily assist me in writing this 'thesis'.
