“大好大坏”的“明日之后”
文/丘光耀博士
上周,我去巴生探访民主行动党元老廖金华,聊起当下行动党的使命、林吉祥和马哈迪合作的利弊,以及如何看待希望联盟在下一届大选的成与败。
廖公是我19岁参加火箭的推荐人,同属一支部,他当年是士布爹区国会议员,也是火箭的全国宣传秘书。我在1987年茅草行动后编绘《人民英雄林吉祥漫画传》而被吸收入党,归入中央宣传局“廖家军”,党内称“华沙子弟兵”。坦白说,我们华校生对华社政治动向的理解和把握,往往比“英沙”精英来得准,所以廖公当年是林吉祥的重要参谋之一。
他问我如何预测希望联盟在下一届大选的成绩,我用闽南语回答,就四个字:大好大坏!
我说,火箭老大林吉祥决定“牵马”联手围剿巫统纳吉,从战略上是高瞻远瞩的,论战术,也无可厚非。道理很简单,老马在保守马来社会还有强大影响力,尤其在纳吉爆发严重贪腐,祭出“马来种族主义”和“伊斯兰神权主义”这两大最有欺骗性的幌子时,最有力能在马来甘榜捅穿纳吉和哈迪假面具的人,正正是马哈迪!
宝刀未老
廖公告诉我说,去年他和几个党外受英文教育的商界朋友一起去听马哈迪、拉菲兹及潘俭伟等人讲演:“羌是老的辣。我和朋友都认为老马宝刀未老。老马是最后一个上台发言,時间接近晚上十点半。他讲一句钟,没有倦容。场中还回答蓄意踩场的马来年青人一些尖锐问题。年逾九十的老马,三几招四两拨千斤就把他们压下去。全场报以掌声。老马不但能应对城市马来人的问题,也同时能有效化解乡区马来同胞的攻势”。
坦白说,行动党在保守马来社会没有影响力,党近年来蓄意栽培的“马来模特”也没有战斗力,所以林吉祥“牵马”,其实不是为了行动党一己的选举利益,因为火箭根本没有派出候选人在甘榜区和巫统对垒。“牵马”战略是要为掀起马来海啸,从马来甘榜、垦植民区、公务员、军警到企业界,靠老马出招,才有望能发大水,淹没巫统这艘海盗船。这是从大马当下给定的社会客观条件出发,而不是按行动党的意识形态之最高纲领出发来判断问题。这是林吉祥务实灵活之处,但我认为他也是进行着一场政治豪赌。
林吉祥在马来人和非马来人眼中的评价,其实是南辕北辙的。巫统六十年来不断妖魔化可谓日久见功,导致林吉祥在马来人心目中是“华人沙文主义者”、“共产党”、“犹太人特务”、“新加坡代理人”以及“513的幕后黑手”等。即便温和一点的误解,也被描绘成“林遵从精英路线,削弱马来特权”,“林操守廉洁,但是无情地罔顾马来人的弱势竞争力”。这些负面的刻板印象,让林吉祥在巫统控制的“国家史观”中肩负太多太多耻辱。
然而,林吉祥在非马来人眼中却是另一番评价。除了早年极左派对他那来自“新加坡人民行动党蒂凡纳政治秘书”的身份特恼火外(这是延续社阵和人民行动党的宿怨),华社普罗大众都认为林吉祥是“大马民主运动的先锋”,“挑战巫统霸权的斗士”,“国会揭发丑闻的雄辩家”以及“不畏坐牢的政治硬汉”等等。简言之,林吉祥是大马民主运动的一面光辉旗帜!
如今,林吉祥“牵马”的举动被某些人在网上谩骂为“政治婊子”、“出卖原则”、“全家死完”、“下地狱”云云,这些键盘写手,竭尽所能诋毁林吉祥的人格,泼妇骂街,用词毒辣,目的是要鼓吹“华人在华人区投废票”。这些杂牌网军,有者是要为“第三势力”造势,有者是为国阵所收买。
故此,我认为,林吉祥是以他在非马来社会所积累五十年的“历史英名”,去联合一名“大马威权体制的建构者”马哈迪,来对抗纳吉领导的贪腐政权。万一希望联盟失败,行动党受到重挫,林吉祥不仅无法维持他在非马来社会半个世纪以来的正面历史评价,也将面对“晚节不保”的风险,或被说成“为贪图权力联合魔鬼的下场”,甚至“和铮铮铁骨的卡巴星形成强大的反差”。我告诉廖公:“这是吉祥所要考虑的问题,但看来他是铁了心,跟老马一样,准备豁出去,拼老命了!”
你决定明日之后
如果明日是投票日,在纳吉最腐败的时刻,却鉴于种族和宗教牌发酵而让国阵继续执政,甚至重夺国会三分二议席的话,那么我断言:明日之后,将是这个国家“大坏时代”的到来!
首先,“开明的马来政治”被证明没有选举市场,马来极端主义和伊斯兰神权政治抬头,任何要出位的马来政客,都把中庸、包容和进步政治视为“票房毒药”。在多元的大马,侵蚀非马来人和非穆斯林的权益,将被视为是捞取马来选票的绝佳捷径,这也将激起华人、印度人和其他少数民族及非穆斯林社群的自然反抗。大马的明日之后,将是一个火药库。
再则,贪污腐败蔚然成风,盗贼窃国将变本加厉,个人腐败将上升为制度性腐败。大马不会有公平竞争,不会讲廉洁操守;政客以权谋私,搜刮民膏民脂,这个国家的明日之后,注定向下沉伦,万劫不复。
第三,国阵靠恶法钳制公民自由权的“威权体制”,将在明日之后得以延续,大马离开“自由国度”非但不是一步之遥,反之,还有向反动的“神权专政体制”坠落的危险性。宪政世俗一旦被动摇,印尼Ah Hok之遭遇,将是大马明日之后非穆斯林和非马来人的集体命运。
光只是上述三点,明日之后的大马将是黑暗一片。所以,当92岁的马哈迪和76岁的林吉祥,加上在黑牢中的安华,这三个政治宿敌都能整合起来,结合从伊斯兰党出走的诚信党党魁末沙布,在这个千载难逢的历史机遇,有望推翻肆虐了大马60年的国阵统治,大家是否应该为明日之后的大马,扭转衰败不堪的国运而支持改革运动?
你不必为珍惜林吉祥的历史评价而投希望联盟一票,他反正都豁出去了!他“牵马”是为了你我和子孙的未来,能享有更自由和平等的明日之后,而不是为了守住行动党既有的华人选区。
坦白说,马哈迪和林吉祥均时日无多。今天是他们的最后一役,不是为个人的历史功名而战,而是为明日之后的大马,为了夺回被盗贼劫持的国家,以及拯救被神权主义永世绑架的世俗国度。
明日之后的大马,是大好还是大坏,你有一票,你来决定!这是我和廖公的共识,谨此和大家分享我们的师徒二人的见解。
