Our beloved Prime Minister had introduced the 1 Malaysia concepts as to make the Malaysian become tougher in facing the challenges in the globalization, including in the field of social, economy and also politic. This concept is suitable with the Malaysia that consists of multi races and cultures. The purpose of this concept is to strengthen the relationship and cooperation between citizens which consist of multi races to become a prior weapon to face any challenges that can disturb the relationship between races. According to our Prime Minister, YAB Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Abdul Razak, the 1 Malaysia concepts means, “We stand, we think and act as Malaysian. One people. And we take the actions based on the needs of all the ethnic groups in our country.” This statement means that all the citizens and the leader must play their own roles to accomplish 1 Malaysia concepts. This includes the counselors which also must play their role to make the 1 Malaysian concepts success.
As the counselors, their must do their best in their job according what is need in making the 1 Malaysia concepts accomplish. The duty to make all the races become unite can be done from the school stage which the counselor should gather all the races together in every program that been held. By doing this, they can learn to respect and have the trustworthy towards each others. The counselors must put this kind of value in every student which they will adopt and practice until they grown up. By using the counselor’s knowledge and skills, there is possibility to make all the races become unite and the concept of 1 Malaysia become successful. I strongly agree and believe that counselors are the key to the success of the 1 Malaysia concepts because counselors have specific skills in dealing with people and also they have the ability to influence other. The counselors may use their power together with the other party to involve in facing the challenges and strengthen the relationship between races according to 1 Malaysia concepts.
The specific skills that counselors have are very useful in handling people’s feeling and emotion which it can change one’s perception or thinking. Counselors may use their skills to make people realize the important of the concepts by themselves. Counselors can handle a program that is suitable for all races and it can give benefit to all that involve. The program should make the participants have the self-awareness in themselves which they can give full cooperation with each other without having any barriers between races and cultures. The other party also such as teacher, parents and society should involve together in helping the counselors to make 1 Malaysia concepts become true.
The ability that counselor have is not just to assist and guide the people which have a problem only but they also can influence people to have the different view and perception. In every counseling session, counselors can give some information about the concepts and let the client absorb the information and spread to other. The counselor can easily convince the client because the counselors already build the good rapport with the client. Counselors are already being trained with the skill in dealing with multicultural people. So, it is easy for the counselors to face the client which comes from different races, culture and background. This might be a good beginning for counselors in contribute to the 1 Malaysia concepts.
In conclusion, it is believe that counselor is one of the key to make the 1 Malaysia concepts successful and meet the objectives. It can be done if all the people play their roles and not only just sit down and doing nothing. They must be together as people that have same feeling and thinking who stand and act as Malaysian. All people are the same where they share together their belief and thinking. As for counselors, they must take the new steps and try to look for further ways in making the 1 Malaysia concepts successful.
