Let Sarawak be the model & take the lead. Encouraging National Identity Over Ethnic Identity: When policies are consistently framed to emphasize unity, it encourages Malaysians to think of themselves as part of one nation rather than being segmented by race. This national identity can lead to greater cooperation in all aspects of life, from politics to business, and ultimately, a stronger and more resilient Malaysia.

Prevention of Racial Tensions: With Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous communities coexisting, fostering unity among these diverse groups is essential for social harmony, economic progress, and national stability. Malaysia has witnessed episodes of racial tensions in the past, often ignited by sensitive policies, statements, or legislative changes that were not thoroughly scrutinized for their impact on race relations. By having the Unity Ministry review initiatives, proposals, and legal drafts first, it provides a safeguard against potential conflicts. Policies that are well-intentioned but may inadvertently marginalize or offend a particular community can be adjusted or reconsidered before they are introduced.

Prioritizing interracial relationships by mandating that the Unity Ministry reviews all proposals, initiatives, and legal drafts before public discussion or cabinet deliberation is a proactive approach to ensuring national unity. It will help build a more integrated, peaceful, and prosperous Malaysia, where all races work together towards common goals

Promoting Inclusivity & Prevention of Controversial/Provoking Announcement: Screening by the Unity Ministry ensures that all new policies and proposals are inclusive and do not disproportionately favor one group over another. This prevents alienation of minority communities and builds a sense of belonging. Policies vetted through the lens of unity would promote equality and respect for all races, reinforcing Malaysia's ethos of "Keluarga Malaysia" (Malaysian Family).

Prevention Is better than cure. Avoiding Unintended Consequences: Many policies, though beneficial on the surface, may have unintended consequences that could fuel racial disparities or tensions. The Unity Ministry, with its dedicated focus on national cohesion, is well-positioned to detect these potential outcomes. By involving this ministry in the early stages, Malaysia can avoid costly mistakes that may have long-term negative implications for interracial relationships.

Curbing Polarization: In the current political landscape, many discussions around race and religion are highly polarized, often exploited by opportunistic parties for political gain. Preemptive screening by the Unity Ministry ensures that all proposals foster constructive dialogue rather than divide. This process can help cool down incendiary discussions before they reach the public sphere, helping to maintain the delicate balance of interracial relations.
