Hari ini adalah hari ulang tahun kelahiran ke-104 Allahyarham Tun Abdul Razak Hussein. Dato’ Rahmah Abu Kassim, Ahli Lembaga Pemegang Amanah Yayasan Tun Razak mengimbau kembali kepimpinan Almarhum yang membentuk Malaysia moden. Berdasarkan pengalamannya dalam perkhidmatan awam pada satu tempoh penting dalam sejarah negara, beliau mengenang bagaimana Tun Razak memimpin negara selepas ketegangan yang tercetus susulan Peristiwa 13 Mei 1969.

Teras kepimpinan beliau merupakan komitmen yang kukuh terhadap pembangunan luar bandar dan peningkatan taraf hidup rakyat. Beliau memperluas peluang kepada komuniti luar bandar melalui pemilikan tanah, peningkatan pendapatan dan penyertaan dalam kegiatan ekonomi. Dikenali dengan pendekatan ‘turun padang’, Tun Razak kerap berinteraksi secara langsung dengan masyarakat bagi memastikan dasar pembangunan benar-benar memberi manfaat dan perubahan nyata dalam kehidupan rakyat.

Seperti yang dinyatakan oleh Dato’ Rahmah, legasi Tun Razak bukan sekadar terletak pada institusi dan dasar yang dibangunkannya, tetapi juga pada teladan kepimpinan yang ditinggalkannya: kepimpinan yang berteraskan empati, disiplin dalam pentadbiran, serta komitmen berterusan terhadap perpaduan dan peluang yang adil untuk semua. Itulah misi Tun Razak, dan ia kekal menjadi tanggungjawab kita bersama.

On what would have been the 104th birthday of Abdul Razak Hussein today, this op-ed by Dato' Rahmah Abu Kassim, a Board of Trustee of the Tun Razak Foundation, reflects on the leadership that helped shape modern Malaysia. Drawing from her experience in the civil service during a pivotal period in the country’s history, she recalls how Tun Razak guided the nation following the tensions of the May 13, 1969 incident.

He also expanded opportunities for rural communities through land ownership, income growth, and economic participation. Known for his 'turun padang' approach, Tun Razak regularly engaged directly with communities, ensuring that development policies translated into real improvements in people’s lives.

As Dato’ Rahmah notes, Tun Razak’s legacy lies not only in the institutions and policies he built, but in the example he set: leadership grounded in empathy, discipline in governance, and an enduring commitment to unity and opportunity for all. That was Tun Razak’s mission. It remains ours.

The road to Merdeka was neither accidental nor effortless. It was forged through conviction, careful negotiation and shared sacrifice.

The founding fathers gave their all for us to gain independence. Tunku Abdul Rahman, for example, sold personal assets to fund the Alliance coalition of United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) and Malayan Indian Congress (MIC).

In the first General Election in 1955, the Alliance took a stand on two critical matters: first, that more members of the new Legislative Assembly be elected rather than appointed by the colonial administration; and second, that independence be secured. Winning 51 of 52 seats, the Alliance earned the mandate to form the government and shape the constitutional arrangement of a self-governing nation.

The Constitution set out the rules by which the new nation would govern itself. The nine Malay Rulers became constitutional monarchs of their respective states, with a Yang di-Pertuan Agong elected every five years. Independent Malaya’s democracy and institutions were built on the Westminster model that serves a multicultural nation, bringing together everyone as citizens of Malaya.

It was an uphill task, requiring strong leadership and clear values within the constraints of the time. Through firm yet skilful negotiation with the British government, the Alliance secured independence without violent uprising. On 31 August 1957, at Merdeka Square, the Union Jack was lowered and the Malayan flag raised, followed by seven shouts of “Merdeka!” marking the birth of a free nation.

Independence, however, was only the foundation. The work of stabilising and developing the nation began in earnest in the years that followed. It was during this phase that Tun Abdul Razak accelerated efforts to strengthen rural development, reduce poverty, expand education and grow local enterprise, ensuring that Merdeka translated into meaningful progress for all Malaysians.
