Bumiputeras Lagging???...........


Funny thing. Why are they lagging? Why are they still lagging after so many years of government subsidies, allocations, priorities etc...? In fact, the government has even extended the period for giving priority and special privilages to bumiputeras; it was supposed to cease by the 90s.

Quote from the late MGGPilai
"NATIONAL UNITY IS NOT possible in Malaysia so long as there is the New Economic Policy, which in practice is for one race, the Malays, only. And the NEP is not for 20 years, as when initiated in 1970, but extended for ever when it was renewed in 1990................. "

I really wonder how is it that for more than 30 years of endless help, the bumiputeras are still behind? The malays are still behind? I really wonder... Do you???

One thing is for sure, if the reason is that the Malaysian government does not give a damn or does not provide enough support, I'd say go peelar! Help and support is everywhere! Look around you, or are you bloody blind???!

Another funny thing is when people get all worked up and highly sensitive as if to show their massive feelings of insecurity everytime these special rights are brought up and occasionally challenged. It's like little kids fighting; one being overly sensitive and the other trying to get fairness. BTW, is anything ever fair in this world???

I really wonder... Do you? Hmmms... ~sigh~
