Malaysian Agenda v Malay Agenda

Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi said the fixing of government-linked companies is not a Malay Agenda but a Malaysian Agenda because they are public-listed companies and there are others, not just the government who owns it.

But most of the others are foreigners!

Would it then be Foreign Agenda?

Khazanah owns Mobil 1, a Singapore-owned company. Khazanah had various stakes in Indonesia and India and other countries.

Sime Darby, MBB, MAS, Proton, Golden Hope, TNB, Telekom and UEM World had substantial foreign shareholdings.

It what Pak Lah said is to be analysed, it certainly would be construed as a Foreign Agenda rather than a Malaysian Agenda.

On the contrary, the AP and NEP should have been a Malaysian Agenda as it should have been such that all Malaysians should benefit within the national economic cake and wealth distribution in line with Rukunegara, Muhibbah and Warganegarawan.

The AP and NEP is indeed a Malaysian Agenda because Melayu, Cina, India and lain-lain all contributed to the success of those who got rich under its auspices.

If they restrict selling AP cars to Malays only, do you think their agenda can be successful?

NEP not a Malaysian Agenda? AP is not malay agenda, it is political pay back pure and simple...
