"Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi on CNN Talk AsiaThis country that we love belongs to all of us..."
"Chinese in Malaysia are better off than Malays. And they are successful because there are opportunities for them to do well in the country, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi."
"When the interviewer pointed out that Lee had suggested the Chinese were marginalised because they were successful, Abdullah replied: "No, they are successful because we give them opportunities."We allow their children to go to Chinese schools, vocational schools, to learn Mandarin. And they practise their culture. "
This is what read on the headings of an article from nst.com.my. Read it HERE.
Yes, indeed Malaysia is supposedly to belong to everyone. But is it entirely correct to say that the Chinese are given ample opportunities to be able to be successful???!
For goodness sake... I guess our PM is just trying so hard to look 'fair', but WTH! I'll tell you why Chinese/non-bumiputeras HAVE TO be successful and how, in the real world, they get successful most of the times! Here's one of the many actual reasons!
Chinese/Non-bumiputeras have a better chance getting into private universities or colleges than local universities! There is a freakin quota!
This forces the non-bumiputeras to seek education overseas! Middle-classed families have to fork out thousands and thousands of DOLLARS just to get their children through their studies; forcing these families to sweat it out at work and their businesses; to be SUCCESSFUL. WHY? Because it is not a choice, it's a do or die mission! It is not like their children could initially get into local universities in Malaysia! You must be kidding to say that the government does offer 'help' in these kind of situations.
Then comes the second part of the story: Chinese/non-bumiputera who study overseas spent so much money, and most of them end up working overseas; in countries like Australia, UK, US etc. And what makes you think they'd want to come back to Malaysia, apart for holidays to visit their parents?! Malaysia initially offered them 'shit'!
They take their trades and much needed skills elsewhere! They are a lot of Malaysians/ex-Malaysians suceeding NOT in Malaysia! A study should be made to get a figure. Look at people like Michelle Yeoh, or Jimmy Choo... to name just a few. Where did they get famous?! In MALAYSIA?! Bull!
AND NOW, the government is 'begging' that these successful 'Malaysians' come back to Malaysia to help build the nation. The nation that in the first place gave little to help them in the first place! What opportunists! Makes me sick!
And for Chinese/non-bumiputeras who cannot afford the thousands to go overseas, they are left to 'rot' in Malaysia. Yes! Indeed, we get A LOT of help from the government! Haha! Malaysia boleh! Yes, we can... we can tell half truths to the people and the world, so long as 'our' special interests are upheld... FOREVER!

"We allow their children to go to Chinese schools, vocational schools, to learn Mandarin. And they practise their culture. " - badawi
the last time i check, our independence was given to the 3 main races and the chinese has a share of the country too...so, who is he to say that he allowed or has given opportunities to the chinese...its our bloody birthright in this country!!the way he says it is as if the chinese owes them for all we have.....who the hell is he trying to fool, beside himself...
HAHAHA! True! Meaning without His 'green light', the Chinese & Non-bumiputeras cannot practice their own cultures la! In a very blunt way! Bull!
This interview highlight 2 things
1) Deep inside,the leaning of our PM i s no different than that of the ultras in UMNO. He believes Malay have a special right.
2) He clearly is undersieged. His ugliness is showing although he probably think himself resolute and determined.
Before last GE, he promised more vernacular schools, now even moving small schools is not done.
'Allow' sir? We allow you to be PM. Truth be told, millions of Chinese in this country are more qualified except for their race. We pay most of the taxes and subsidies that allow him to stay in power. We 'allow' him to be PM.
