Sneaky

Subtle commands in a piece by Wong Chun Wai of The Star on the upcoming Ijok by-election (Emphasis mine):

As we wait to celebrate the country’s national day, the people of Ijok should vote for Parthiban, not because he is an Indian or a Malay, but because he is a Malaysian. Likewise, no one should be voting for Khalid because he is a Malay as it would be a seriously unhealthy political trend.

It may or may not have been intentional, but the phrasing is interesting to say the least. Maybe he read NLP For Dummies.
