Tunku Abdul Rahman is well-known throughout the
country. We admire him for his leadership. He has a lot of
charm, tact, wisdom and above all energy. He is one of the
world's greatest leaders. The Tunku managed to gain independence
without bloodshed. He united the various races in so
short a period and with no trouble at all, brought peace to
the territory — though the British failed in the Emergency, gave
prosperity despite the fact that the country is still young.
Willingness to be friendly with all, even his former Colonial
masters, and he has all the energy to work for all these and
