Will Anwar Meet Mahathir In Jakarta?
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his former deputy Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim are scheduled to participate in a three-day World Peace Forum to be held in Jakarta on Monday.
They will be attending the same conference there right? Don't tell me that the Indons are ignorant of what is happening in Malaysia? Could it be that they have a plan in mind in inviting just these two prominent but estranged Malaysians? Are there some influential and concerned Indonesians who are holding out a peace pipe to see if anyone is willing to smoke it? After all it is a forum on world peace and all of them will be imbued in the spirit of harmony.
They will join some 50 other religious leaders and political figures from 28 countries to discuss global injustices and how the values of humanity, common destiny and one responsibility of mankind could serve as an integrating force in efforts to ensure world peace.
The forum, with One Humanity, One Destiny, One Responsibility as the theme, seeks to achieve several objectives including to deepen the networks of dialogue among civilisations in order to promote tolerance and mutual respects and to explore ways by which different civilisations could better cooperate in spreading the voice of peace.
Whether there will be a realignment of forces, a new arrangement of conveniences or the status quo remains will be known in the not too distant future. In the meanwhile I doubt if anyone is going to lose any sleep or expect much to come out of this short tryst in Jakarta.
