Unity is a great quality of human beings.

By this is meant the accord of

different minds for a common end. There can be no concert if the different
persons with their musical instrument are not of the same mind. If they
play on thier instrument as they like, there will be only chaos and
confusion but no harmony.
As in the case of musical instrument, so in case of all other affairs, unity of
purpose is indispensably necessary. This alone enables us to produce a
result conductive to the common good.
So no single person can do what is to be done by several persons unitedly.
In other words, the real strenght lies in unity. A nation,whose citizens are
united, is strong. A family, whose members are united, is strong. A team
whose players are in combination with one another, is strong.
As unity strength, so disunity is weakness. No nation can continue as a
free and independent one if its citizens are not united. In the First and
Second Great Wars, Germany in spite of its great might, could not smash
British because the English people were united. In the September War
(1965) with India, the name of Pakistan would have been obliterated from
the map if we were not united to save our independence. This shows that
in the case of a nation, unity is strenght and disunity is weakness.
The same principle is applicable to the case of a family. If all its members
are united and work for its good, they prosper. But if they are selfish and
have no unity of purpose, its condition worsens. So in the case of a family,
its strength lie in the unity of its members,but if they not united, it goes to
ruin.
In this connection the story of the old farmer and his quarrelling sons is
very instructive. So long as the sticks were united in the bundle was united
and the separated sticks were given to his sons, they could break then
very easily. By this example the old man taught his son that unity is
strength. Nobody can do us any harm so long as we are united. But when
we are disunited. Misfortune befalls us.
Since Malaysia practice parliamentary democracy and it is necessary to
instill the spirit of one Malaysia among the multi-ethnic society. When
people of diverse origin become united, Malaysia will gain widely from the
close cooperatin. Malays, Indians, Chinese and other races will be able to
live peacefully without the feeling of hatred, anger, jealousy and envy. It is
therefore the right time for all Malaysian to think of this as one coutry, one
people, one organization and one community. This will add a lot of benefits
for Malaysia will remain safe, stable and secure at all time.
The one Malaysia concept will enable all Malaysians to improve further in
education, technology, science, art, music and culinary skill. When a
nation lives peacefully without prejudice and discrimination, the country
will prosper to great height. All Malaysians will learn from each other and

help one another regardless the dissimilarity of races. Hence, a society of

love, trust, care and mutual respect will be created.
This country will become a role model for others to emulate where peace,
prosperity and happeniss will prevail. Malaysia will become the leaders in
all fields for they will share knowledge, know hows, skills and tact.
Malaysia will be able to lead more meningful life for they will learn to love
Malaysia as their homeland. There will ot be any migration to other
countries for they will be satisfed and happy with the local conditions and
situations.
The point will be quite clear if we consider the care of a foot-ball teams. Its
strength lines in its combination. If the players subordinate in thier,
interests to the good of the team, they win. But if, on the contrary, they
have no unity of prupose and everyone of them as he pleases, their team
is bound to be defeated.
In this way we may see that in every sphere of human life, strength lies in
unity and disunity leads to disaster and ruin.
