Yet to be Convinced

Yet to be Convinced

Sirs,

Mr dear Revolutionists, you sure scare me. Do you think that you and I could discuss this over before the "New Enlightened People's Republic" takes over Malaysia, in this way we can by-pass Salient. You know I might join your bandwagon, if after our discussion, I find that you have better things to offer and a substantial degree of success in achieving them. After all, aren't I a peasant, a member of the oppressed.

Since you know me, you hold the card of our rendezvous. If not, why don't you stop hiding behind a flimsy bamboo curtain and come out into the open. What's there to be afraid of, after all, you have the support of the majority....or is it the strategy of a Revolutionist to be a coward?

Just by the way, would it not be a more sensible thing to do to "stick one's head in the sand" to think, than to stick it out and let it be cut off?

Fellow Comrade,

James Masing.
