The British colonial master is very good for creating the racial disharmony, even in their own land, the Great Britain.
More than 60 years on, in fact, Malaysia is only 60 years in 2023 but Malaya Peninsula is 66 years getting out of the Great Britain controlling or colonizing. There are still much land under the Great Britain.
Malaysia Chinese Association (MCA) and Malaysia Indian Congress (MIC) should consider to revert the association into the cultural organisations.
Look at the purpose of MCA during the colonial period:
The Malayan Chinese Association was formed on 27 February 1949 with the implicit support by the post-World War II British colonial administration. A central purpose of the MCA at the time of its founding was to manage the specific social and welfare concerns of the populations interned in the so-called New Villages created under the Briggs Plan in response to the Malayan Emergency.[8][9]

Look at the purpose of MIC during the colonial period:
The MIC was established in August 1946 to advocate for Indian independence from British colonial rule. After India gained its independence, MIC turned its focus to the struggle for the independence of Malaya (now Malaysia), which was achieved in 1957. It positioned itself to represent the Indian community in Malaya in the post-World War II development of the country.

If could clearly see that both associations are not meant for the political purposes. Therefore, in the internet age, both association should be dissolved to cater and promote the respective racial cultural events, like MCA should focus on the Hakka, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hainan etc languages and cultural events. MIC on the other hand too should focus on Indian community tribal, like Malayalee etc languages and culture events.

At the 21st century, don't fall for the dirty tactics of the British colonial system, playing for separation of races.
Who need MCA and MIC to speak for them like the colonial era?
Don't follow the past but make it a new system in the future.
Let United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) stay where it is because Dr Mahathir, a medical doctor who alter the DNA of people via religion would create more toxic ways to defend the UMNO if anyone suggested the dissolving of UMNO.
Let the only racial party created by the British colonial master stay till the day it falls.You know well that not all Malays are supporting this racial political party, the election results spoke all. UMNO will die a natural cause so as MCA and MIC if these two racial parties do not change their mindsets.
UNESCO is calling to protect the cultures and languages of all people. A person speaks more than 3 languages, the brain is more active and could prevent dementia.
MCA and MIC leaders should be wise to see the future for Malaysia.Your changing will bring harmony to Malaysia and Malaysia will be stronger and peaceful.
Do it, don't create more divides in the internet age.
