Is NEP good for Malays and Malaysia ?

Speaking in 2002, at the end of his political career, Mahathir Mohammed said “We have tried to tell [the ethnic Malay majority] if you depend on subsidies, you are going to be very weak. But they don’t seem to understand. We tell them if you use crutches, you will not be able to stand up. Throw away the crutches, stand up straight …but they want the easy way out

M’sia just celebrated 50th MERDEKA..but still using the old M’sia NEP policy – where certain race based affirmative action has jeopardised our country efficientcy + competitiveness. Like Mr. LEE KUAN YEW once quoted: “if they wld just treat the Chinese + Indians with equal rights, opportunities + meritocracy..M’sia can do better than S’pore(take it as benchmark) a
small republic without natural commodities to shout abt…what more for M’sia? Ask yourself in deep thought.
There was another guy, Mr.THIERRY ROMMEL,
who commented on M’sia NEP policy that hinders the FTA negotiations + detrimental to the economy also.It was ingood faith that he commented the repercussion issue
of Discrimination of Equality + Meritocracy – a hindrance to the improvementof our economy. An awakening comment was blasted from the govt. + others on the pretext that he had meddled
in our internal affairs.Why can’t we looked from the positive view- maybe he had a point. The awakening episode must come. Be bold + pragmatic to face reality.
there must be definite dateline. we strongly believe in consensus.. but the NEP policy have been extended much too long..really straining + polarised us non-muslim more. EQUALITY TO ALL MALAYSIANS is the key word.
