Sometimes we are too proud to
acknowledge that others know more and better than us. For that reason Islam
asked us to be humble in knowledge, status and wealth. Often we judge and make
opinion on others wrongly because we have preconceived ideas about them.
That
is why God reminded us in the appointments to positions to make sure the right
person or experts of that particular field be appointed; otherwise wait for the
day of doom. Looking from a distance is not the same from being near or to be
there.
The English has a saying forcing a square peg in a round hole is not
the answer. It would exacerbate the situation further. The problems in ASEAN
can only be solved in ASEAN taking the lead; be it in diplomacy, advocacy or
socio-economic cooperation.
Looking at it from afar is not the same no matter
how qualified we are.
