The Quest for Leadership Legitimacy among Singapore Malays
Hussin Mutalib 서울대학교행정대학원 2012 Asian Journal of Political Science Vol.20 No.1
Much has been written about the problems and concerns affecting the Malay ethnicminority in Singapore. These include issues such as their socio-economic situation,relatively low educational performance, and increasing incidences of social ailments likehigh rates of drug addiction, divorce and youth delinquency. In the context of Singapore’smultiracial and multi-religious fabric, little has been articulated about what is hereargued to be a core issue of the ‘Malay plight’, namely, the legitimacy of the Malaypolitical leadership. Apparently both the ruling-party-affiliated Malay politicians andtheir Malay opposition counterpart have been at odds with their perceptions andpredispositions towards this particular issue. It is here that a bold, albeit controversial,alternative model called the ‘collective leadership’, was publicly goaded by the Associationof Malay/Muslim Professionals in both their 1990 and 2000 National Conventions,which requires due consideration. Perhaps at a time of a changing Singapore society, thisalternative or its variant could go some way towards mitigating, if not resolving, thelong-standing Malay plight, and thus, benefit not only the Malay minority itself, butSingapore as a whole.
