We see a lot of problems reported in the news which seems to happen only in Bolehland. Malaysia inherited the British administration system, and the rule of law.
Until many years after independence, there were systems of public tenders in awarding government projects to contractors. There were proper procedures for the government professionals to evaluate tenders, and those which were deemed to have the best value for money would be selected.
The departments concerned acted for the interest of the government and made sure that government funds, whether from natural resources or taxpayers were properly spent.
In the name of efficiency, the tender system was suspended in the 1980s. That allowed subjective judgments for awarding contracts, and corruptions mushroomed. Further, in the name of NEP, the only check for contracts seemed to be that the awardees must be malays.
That facilitated money politics although not necessarily in cash term.
Even before NEP, scholarship awards from the state and federal governments were mostly for the malays, who were selected from among the best in the group. There were also non-malays scholarship awardees but fewer in number. Now……….
Before NEP, students were accepted to university courses based on their entry qualifications even though malays who did not meet the entry requirements were also accepted. There was no variation in passing mark to graduate from the universities. After NEP……….
Before NEP, we saw lecturers and professors of various nationalities and skin colors, now……….
It may be argued that the more the non-malays voice against the NEP, the more the malays are convinced that it should be retained.
NEP proved the convenient cover for corruption. Without the NEP, there will be no cover for corruption, no push factor for brain drain, no wastage of government revenue, a more attractive place for investors, a more conducive environment for business activities, and the income level of the people would rise.
It would be difficult to convince the malays that Singaporeans are on average as intelligent as we are in Bolehland, but on average, Singaporeans has 6 times our earning power.
Yes, it is on average, meaning that people in the same job function should be getting on average that many times our income. The difference there was no rampant corruption in Singapore whereas in Malaysia - corruption has been institutionalised.
Is Malaysia ruled by gangsters? Though we have our own rules, we have to submit to “their” rules if we want to live peacefully. Malaysia = no hope!
Again I say, God is fair. Other countries have natural disasters like volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. We have our Ketuanan Melayu to destroy us all. Do they care? They are busy storing up riches and can easily fly away to paradise.
A very sad situation for Malaysia, a beautiful country runs by imbeciles. If I had a magic wand I would like to banish the whole lot in our government and invite Singapore to govern Malaysia. That way we can be one of the economic giants.
So in years to come, the economy is going down because people in Umno and Umno Youth reward mediocrity and based on race. The scary thing is, they are proud of it too and think they are doing it right and can help Malaysia. Man - that is scary.
Also about the political sentiment they use, if you are patriotic give more to your country. My response is, the country hasn’t given me anything why should I give to you o Malaysia.
My friends once told me, I would rather to be treated as second-class citizen in other country like the US or UK than to be treated as second-class citizen in Malaysia. At the very least, your voice is heard than in Malaysia where every good reason falls on death ear. So if any of malay politician ask me to get out, provide me with the PR of USA and I am on my way.
So if the current PM want to make things right, he must not be afraid to put someone on the chopping block. He should think with integrity not rewarding people because they are cronies. By doing this, you are sending messages that you encourage things to be done this way.
So no wonder corruptions prevail and ton of incompetent people get to sit in the thrones of power. So there is literally no common sense involved except for the sake of covering their own ass. So it is really sickening to hear them praising about progressive society while the foundations of real civilization aren’t there.
Since even the lowest pay in Australia, will overtake the pay in Malaysia, easily. If you don’t believe me, ask a Australia grad student how much they are paid a month with their fees waived. I am sure that is a new goal you should set yourself to work on. So carry on, don’t despair, and don’t give up.
Pork is banned everywhere but beef is served without any care whatsoever about others sensitivities. You cannot start a program with a Hindu, Christian, Buddhist prayer but Muslim prayer is a must.
For all the stale bulls who believe Malaysia still has hope……….best of luck, as far as I am concerned I am going to be out of this country that practices apartheid.
I believe my children deserve to have equal opportunity in this world.
