Most mature and stable democracies in the world have settled into a pattern of two dominant political forces.
In most countries, politics has followed a binary trajectory. Although multiple parties exist, the trend has been towards two dominant political forces, mostly in the form of coalitions in which parties gang up and form the governments.
Now, Muda president Syed Sadiq Syed Abdul Rahman, the party’s sole MP, has pulled out and announced that Muda will become the “third force” in Malaysian politics. Any Malaysian politician who still thinks that there is room for a third force or for independent candidates is not accepting reality. Besides, it moderates animosities and ethnic chauvinism with coalitions playing musical chairs to try and form governments each time after an election. Also, the fact that these two parties have relatively equal strength is good for competition in the country.
This is compounded by the electorate, educated or not, who seem too lazy to reason, think and analyse multiple possibilities like a third force. They prefer to make decisions based on two defined options.
