The reason Dong Zong is taking a hard stance on this issue is simply not because of the 3 pages of Jawi that all students would have to learn in school, but rather the dignity and rights of all the nons especially the Chinese. If you back down, the nons not only lose your honour and self respect (the Chinese has been giving in all these while), you lose your rights as a citizen as enshrined in the constitution. Same case with the call for the abolishment of SJKC schools in Malaysia. The schools has been here all along and it is one of the core "values" and what is left that belongs to the Chinese and the Nons. If this you allow them to take away from us, what will these people ask for next. It is the responsibility of all the nons especially the Chinese to defend what is rightfully theirs. Failure to do so will result in the loss of your own heritage, your identity, you dignity and ultimately your own self respect.
