Malaysian government has tried its social engineering on the bumi and failed. The policy to simply distribute the equity to the bumis is not the answer when the population of bumis is growing at a higher rate.<BR/><BR/>The fact that bumiputra's population continue to grow at a higher rate than the non-bumi counter parts is not news. You are free to check with the department of statistics on that. It does not take a phd to tell that the bumis are having more children per married couple than the non-bumi by simplying taking a stroll in the park or shopping mall. <BR/><BR/>At this rate, I wonder, can the non-bumi continue to support growing poor malay community? Will we end up just like another indonesia, where the bumis kill and rob when the times are bad?<BR/>The day will come where the bumi population will be more than 80% of the entire malaysian population. When that happens, will 45% equity be enough?<BR/><BR/>I think trying to make malaysia a multi-racial society is a smoke screen by the Barisan National. The goals of the BN leaders are to use up the resources as fast as they come and hold on to power to reap the fortunes for themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1160967726799780702006-10-16T11:02:00.000+08:002006-10-16T11:02:00.000+08:00To Anon above:Please note the fortune from the fac...To Anon above:<BR/><BR/>Please note the fortune from the face of Koh tsu koon......<BR/>He got a damn big nose which is indicating of a very prosperous life..<BR/><BR/>Look at the pic of Tony P ...<BR/><BR/>Hehe....by nature irritating to others, stubborn hard headed but intelligent.

Not even flour. Maybe a useless space to start with. Yeah, exactly. After, the non-bumi shed their sweat and blood to make the cake, then they will come and claim the cake is given by them. To them, because they gave us the opportunity to use the space means everything we made and earned belongs to them.

UMNO definition is that only direct ownernership to KLSE companies share equity counts. This means, if bumi has USD1 trillion stashed in the bank but owns zero shares in KLSE, they have 0% equity. This is of course a rediculous way of defining equity. <BR/><BR/>Dr. Lim Teck Ghee definition would be much more acceptable. One can get the full report off ASLI website:<BR/>http://www.cpps.org.my/downloads/D_%20Corporate_Equity_Distribution.pdf<BR/><BR/>By UMNO definition, if we get all non bumi controlled company to shift their listing abroad, then by definition most KLSE equity will now be owned by bumi.<BR/>NEP objective achieved. Viola !!<BR/><BR/>The fact that many GLC and trust fund that are setup to holds equity on behalf of bumi controls a large chunk of the equity of KLSE also. If those are added, the equity will be >>18%<BR/>claimed.<BR/><BR/>In UK, think thank like IFS frequently critised government and the government never made politicised such reports.<BR/><BR/>This is Malaysia.

A fine example of 1st class infrastructure but pariah mentality. <BR/><BR/> Dr Lim had on one of the public forum held in August mentioned that he is fine with anyone who wanted to challenge ASLI findings in an academic manner. So if the UMNOputras disagrees with this findings, why not challenge it with a proper debate and proper academic reference to debunk ASLI findings. After all they have a so called “Oxford”graduate in their youth wing. <BR/><BR/>It’s time for Malaysians to wake up and be more demanding to the government.

However, that belief is no longer true. Gerakan has become the punching bag for UMNO whenever they need a bogeyman within their internal politics. And as part of BN, there's nothing much Gerakan can do about it. And every silent reaction, they are losing votes, especially in their home base Penang.<BR/><BR/>If there are Gerakan members following this blog, I would like to suggest to them that Gerakan seriously consider pulling out of BN for the next General Election. This is essential for their own political survival. As part of BN, they stand to lose it all, ala Sarawak. Outside BN, they can voice their true feelings, and champion the Bangsa Malaysia call. I think the time is right, but it can only succeed outside BN.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1160795924659773002006-10-14T11:18:00.000+08:002006-10-14T11:18:00.000+08:00I bet Dr. Toh will be "kindly" asked to retract hi...I bet Dr. Toh will be "kindly" asked to retract his statement and stepped down, just like Ong Tee Kiat. <BR/><BR/>They (UMNO) will eliminate anyone that is against their fortune road, and never had any interest of the country at all. <BR/><BR/>The people has sacrifised too much for the so-called leaders.<BR/>It is time to exercise our right as a citizen of multiracial Malaysia, and not a citizen of Malaysia bonded by "social contract".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1160792923859551092006-10-14T10:28:00.000+08:002006-10-14T10:28:00.000+08:00remember to put your "X" in the proper box in next...remember to put your "X" in the proper box in next election!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1160791421335864192006-10-14T10:03:00.000+08:002006-10-14T10:03:00.000+08:00One would have thought that any govt., when told t...One would have thought that any govt., when told that their hard-to-achieve goals or objectives are met, should be jumping for joy.

He was also formerly an academic and hence obviously shares the frustration faced by Dr Lim Teck Ghee in the current episode.<BR/><BR/>The frustration isn't so much that the Government rejected the ASLI findings, but on the fact that they were rejected outright as rubbish without discussion, debate and substantiation. <BR/><BR/>Anybody who read Najib's comments on the matter has plenty to fear for the future of Malaysia should Pak Lah, weak as he may be, step down. Najib threatened that nobody should question government derived data and statistics.
