30% equity ownership
Monday, July 25th, 2005 | 1:10 pm @ SK
[UPDATED VERSION] Yesterday, Jeff Ooi described MCA president Ong Ka Ting offered himself as a punching bag for Pemuda Umno who talk about 30% of New Economy Policy (NEP).
Education Minister Hishammuddin Hussein critisized Ong over his comments on Chinese newspaper reports that quoted Ong as saying that he disagreed with the call to revive the NEP in order to achieve 30% Bumiputera equity ownership and not align with the spirit of the policy address by Umno president Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
Leave Hishammuddin alone, Ong as the chieftain of Malaysia largest Chinese party MCA take this as no issue and avoid using the media to talk about it. He even rejected the possibility of a special meeting as unnecessary but to talk to him on the sidelines of any meeting as suffice.
However, I believe that this is a too critical issue to discuss in such an informal manner as it touches on every Malaysian generally.
Seems like certain people just don’t get certain message from Pak Lah, ya?

Via Utusan Malaysia:
“Apa yang kita harapkan ialah usaha yang lebih gigih lagi untuk mencapai kemajuan Melayu seperti yang dihasratkan oleh DEB, itu yang telah diterima dulu, cuma ia satu kerja yang belum selesai, jadi kita hendak selesaikan kerja ini.”“Tak pernah saya marah kaum lain. Saya hanya membuat teguan bantuan daripada mana-mana pihak.”ran kepada kaum saya sendiri kerana saya mahu orang Melayu maju dan tidak mengharapkan bantuan daripada mana-mana pihak.”
“Jadi saya hendak katakan dengan tegas jangan sekali-kali mana-mana surat khabar menimbulkan isu perkauman di sini,” kata Abdullah.
I’m curious, so I ask three questions.
#1: Was this issue distorted?
#2: Any spin-doctor here?
#3: Did Pak Lah bark up at the wrong tree?
And now, I rest my case.

Wah…when chinese press wrote about the chinese interest, it’s isu perkauman…ma ler…Utusan, Star, NST and other shits always write about Melayu this, Melayu that…then not isu perkauman…
Abdullah Badawi(not gonna call u pak lah anymore!), open up your eyes and heart, you can’t be that stupid right?
BTW, dear Dr. Vincent Lim Kian Tick, what are you doing in PM’s office?goyang kaki ah?you should do the following:

2. Menyelaraskan dan mendapatkan maklumat mengenai mesyuarat-mesyuarat parti-parti politik.
3. Menyelaras projek-projek khas yang diarahkan.
4. Membuat penyelidikan dan mendapatkan maklumbalas mengenai sesuatu isu politik.

Sk,
Are you saying that you know Malays that bought properties without taking the discount eligible under their bumiputera status?

No, I don’t mean that.
That’s the status granted under the Malaysian constituition, I’m not going to speculate about that, at least not in this space.
You should know what I mean, oldman. :-)

Who is “really” Hishammuddin?

Sk,
Interesting, I wasn’t aware that discount eligible for bumiputera to buy properties is enshrined in the constitution?
