orwell : the war is not supposed to end

Consider every recurring controversy of race and religion in Malaysia : illegal temple placement, inconvenient farm placement, unacceptable dressing, illegitimate language use, etc.

Wayang besar2an is 

- Malay Imperialism/ketuanan strategists will avoid a quick solution, enforcing nationwide against all infringements, at once

- whenever possible, strategists will avoid legislating clearly in order to allow arbitrary claims of infringement in the future; action is instead channeled via the executive branch, via statements from raja2s and the cabinet

- this allows each subject to become a recurring issue, which creates perpetual protests and anger among the Malay voter base

- it's not just this issue, but various similar issues

- it's not clear what strategies the anti-ketuanan/anti-imperialist political parties have against such long-game strategy 

- Malaysian politics carries on 🌞
