Racial politics and roadblocks to reality in malaysia

I read in the papers about Mahathir's latest outburst about IDR (or whatever its called now) and Singapore's investment there and how the Malays will loose their birth right if all this noise made by non-Malays continue.

frankly I am getting a bit sick of all this paranoia pandering. So far i have not heard of any one or party asking for the malay special privileges to be removed. What the PR states and officials are asking for is for a transparent way of doing things, which can still abide with the NEP.

right now, so many things are done with no transparency that the rakyat does not know how much exactly of the nations coffers have leaked out to areas where it is not supposed to.

like how can state assemblymen use up 2 million of their allocation in 2 months. I find it had to fathom such things.

BN for all intent and purpose has made Malaysia into their own cash cow, using up its resources for their own benefit. I'd say that they are only slightly better than the British colonials as the colonials took the money back to the UK, whereas, there are actual work being done here, but as we have seen in szechuan this past week, if a malapetaka were to happen, how many of these buildings are built to standard?

but i guess things are getting desperate for certain quarters who have made it their life work to harp of the racial divide, unfortunately i think their efforts would have been put to more use if they had used all that energy to heal the racial divide rather to make it more jarring.
