In 2004, when Susilo became President, he declared that all migrant races (Chinese, Indians, etc) born in Indonesia would be treated as PRIBUMIS, having the same rights & status as the indigenious Indons. He also declared Chinese N Year a national holiday (which previously was not one). Without a doubt Indon'sia is now politically & socially more matured than this God-forsaken nation. <BR/><BR/>Imagine if M'sia has this same anti-discrimination law, the NEP would be rendered illegal.

The thinking is "one for you, one for me lah!"<BR/><BR/>That's not to say nothing can be done... a proper tribunal, staffed with individuals of the highest integrity and inclusive of all groups including orang asli, could hand down judgments, but only unanimously.<BR/><BR/>A pipe dream? Maybe... but unless it's something of that scale, I think forget about it. <BR/><BR/>If the will is there (and I think Pakatan has the capital to pitch such a proposal) then I think we can do something special.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37045477.post-57736106606112275822008-11-06T17:09:00.000+08:002008-11-06T17:09:00.000+08:00So as an MP what are you going to do about it?So as an MP what are you going to do about it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37045477.post-12582780344087141772008-11-06T16:57:00.000+08:002008-11-06T16:57:00.000+08:00Such thing could only happen after the demise of U...Such thing could only happen after the demise of UMNO - which many people including me have been praying everyday for it to happen!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
