Forgiveness...

Recently many papers reported about Chin Peng's wish to return to his hometown to reunite with all his family...

Today in The Star newspaper there's 1 news with the title "DPM : No forgiveness for Chin Peng"...click HERE to read more about it...from the title we can know that Chin Peng's wish is not being fulfilled...

I had actually returned back all my history knowledge to my secondary teacher after my SPM Sejarah paper...however in order to prepare for my Malaysian Study presentation with the title "Way to Independent", I have no choice but to study back & try to recall back all those history...

Here's some brief history about Baling Negotiation (1955) which Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Tan Cheng Lock (Alliance) had a negotiation with Chin Peng as the leader of the Malayan Communist Party (MCP) and other communist...the negotiation ended without any agreement as Tunku Abdul Rahman rejected Chin Peng's request to declare MCP as a legal party and one of the fighters for independent...

54 years later, again Chin Peng's request was rejected...

I get this quote online...

"Forgiveness means letting go of the past"
Gerald Jampolsky

I guess Malaysia's government hasn't give up something in the past or is it really the rakyat of whose ancestors were killed by member of MCP innocently can't accept Chin Peng's return??

Hopefully one day he would be able to return to his home, Setiawan to meet up his family (erm....Jansen???haha....)
