Racial Equality Mahathir: A Critique Of Pure Unreason By Non-Malay Youths


Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad placed racial equality as top on his list of priorities to develop the country if he were given a second shot at running the country as prime minister. Dr Mahathir  that despite having relinquished his job for over seven years now he still had “many ideas” on how to improve development in Malaysia.

“I have many ideas that can help to develop the country especially to achieve racial unity “But these plans can only be carried out by those in power because I am not in power all I can do is try to influence the present leaders ”

“My wish if I were to be PM of this country again which is unlikely is to ensure that Malaysia achieves its objective to achieve developed nation status ”

The outspoken octogenarian explained that now that he was no longer in government his only avenue to affect changes in the country was by speaking with present government leaders and writing in his blog chedet co cc.

Several critiques by mostly non-Malay Youths represent the degree of unreason due to lack of understanding of the present Malaysian diverse and polarised society. Thus this will inherently divide the nation move toward racially based sentiments that at the end will make Malaysia the next potential racial outburst conflicts.

We as Malaysian should uphold the concept of 1Malaysia however vague the concept is the ultimate goal is racial unity. Racial equality brings stability and economics prosperity to Malaysia. Is up to the leaders of all political parties to observe this racial equality.

Here of many comments that are not in line with Mahathir dream of racial equality in Malaysia..

God forbid he becomes PM again. He already says the nonBumis are advantaged so wonder what plans he has to cut them down to size.

According to Mahathir racial equality cannot be achieved, it is a continuous process until the end of the world. To support this the Malays will always be tagged as owning 10% though they may own 90%. This sort of manipulation is only believed by Mahathir's supporters consisting of racial perverts. The rest of the population can only hope the restruturing of the country will be done by external forces.

Too little too late! The country today is never more divided because of Tun! You had erred and Malaysia will be further burdened by your senility! Your selective amnesia, the racist in you will never ensure racial equality in this country. 

Dream on Tun, just retire gracefully and interact with LKY more often, then you will have a better idea of what racial equality is and how to bring this country to a develop and world class country! If not for you the country will never be as divisive as it is today!

Dr mahathir seems to be changing his tune to suit the audience, like most politicians. 

To malay zealots, he sells Malay dominance in inflammatory language. In more congenial and gentrified surroundings he tries to pass himself as a liberal with moderate opinions. 

There's no telling what his real intentions are.

His defination of 'racial equality' differs from how most of us would define it. To him, the malays have not yet achieve economic supremacy in this country, therefore, there is now a racial INEQUALITY and hence, if given a chance to rule as PM again, he would like to equalize this 'injustice'. 

Private schools are filled with non malays, so again there is an INEQUALITY in this aspect as well ! If given a 2nd shot as PM, he would like to achieve racial equality here too, so that malays students would also flood the private education system. 

The above are some examples why there is still racial inequality in this country, according to him. So lets all push to bring him back as PM to achieve 'racial equality'.

"If PM again, Dr M would prioritise racial equality". His version of racial equality is when more should be given to bumiputra whom he thinks is lagging behind the other races. Therefore, knowing that it is unlikely for him to be PM again to do more for bumiputra he formed Perkasa to do the job. It is now proven that Perkasa could even caused the NEM to be watered down as publicly claimed by the an NEAC member Dato' Zainal.

How about your Ketuanan Melayu then? Or are you talking about racial equality within the context of Ketuanan Melayu, whatever that means.... All I know is that I am utterly confused.

Mahathir, once you can have Perkasa as leading party of Umno and the other BN components, then, you will fulfill your wish as prime minister for the 2nd time for 23 years to break the previous 22 years record. First, why don't you instruct that Ibrahim Ali to get all his members and submit the application forms to join the BN. And since Perkasa is able to command Umno, you will be appointed as prime minister for the second time. But, what is the chances of Perkasa, Umno and BN components versus Pakatan Rakyat in GE13. The big problem is that, the only surviving party is Umno while all Mic, Mca, Gerakan are completely wiped out and the Umno could lose the Fed Govt rule this time. As you know, Perak is the first expected state to fall to Pakatan Rakyat in the coming general election.

Bro, get BN to nominate you for Kerdau buy-election is better la. If you win the Kerdau buy-election, then you can be the next Pahang Menteri Besar. 

Then in the next GE which will be held in the next 6-9 months,as Pahang MB, give yourself a simple BN MP seat like Kuantan or get a seat from MCA since they are bound to lose 1000% wherever they are in the next GE. You can save 1 seat for BN this way. 

If you can win your Kuantan MP seat, then no doubt you will be PM again la! 

Don't try to fly before you learn how to walk AGAIN bro!

Is this some sort of not so subtle campaign to make Mahathir PM again?

If PM again, anwar will never ever smell freedom anymore

Arm-no only has one idea of achieving racial "equality" and that's by depriving others the rights and opportunity to succeed. It's a case of if I can't catch up with you I would try to sabotage you to slow you down. These people can only succeed by making sure that others failed no matter what's the cost is to the nation. How to become developed nation ???

Of all but why this despot again. At a time when the current progressive citizens trying to undo his despicable acts and policies why is that you guys (news channel) are giving him space to express his stupid views again and again. 
His faculties are not in sync, he is in his twilight years best described - apa nama 'nyanyuk'. 
He is reliving his past limelight like he used to be during the bad old dictatorship days. 
He's desperate. Ignore, he will fade away naturally. 

Note: The list of atrocities are too long and very deceiving.

His idea of having racial equality will be to convert everyone into 1 race.

QUOTE: If PM again, Dr M would prioritise racial equality. 

He had 22 years to do that, but he didn't. Wonder whether he ate the wrong medicine yesterday, especially since he is a very strong supporter of Ibrahim Ali's Perkasa and Ketuanan Melayu.

Do not expect an old leopard to change his spots. He does not remember that he has spots.

I am confused by what TDM said of his desires for racial quality. If his racial equality means mirroring the exact racial composition of the nation and translating them into all level of society then areas like tangible wealth, public & private sector employment, home ownership, scholarships etc must mirror that racial equality. One must not have any qualm on TDM's desire if he truly means what he says. I am fify this year..... of late TDM spoke so much in riddles. I really do not know what is sincere and what is political. I have lost the plot.

Good, and he will keep Ibrahim Ali as his trusted deputy. Alhamdulillah, this beloved country has rid of him from damages he may created.

The man appears to be incoherent nowadays: 

One day a call to protect the race and the next a call for racial equality. 

In the end, Mahathir is living out his failures as a PM all over again in his old age!

Can you imagine the gall of this tale carrier? He is one of the world's most rabid racist and yet he tries to hoodwink the minorities yet again.

TDM had said that the country belongs to the Malays and now wants to promote equality amongst the people.. Isn't that a contradiction? 

He had lost a golden opportunity to progress the community by teaching and training them to be self reliant and competitive. Corruption had siphoned off huge resources meant for the poor and needy. Grandiose ideas and spending continue to drain our funds. We are lacking both in political and economical principles. Ethnic relations are worse than ever before , aided by narrow religious zealousness. It will take a lot to get out of our quagmires. Equality should have been expounded on 31 August 1957. It may be too late now.

I would like to ask Dr. MM what he means by "racial equality" . Does he have a new policy to "equalise" all Malaysians? Will he improve the standards of schools, colleges and universities? Will he give scholarships based on merit or talent? How will he ensure justice, fairplay and transparency in the economic sphere? 
Andrew C.

Prioritise racial equality....!!! Oh!...You Father of inequality,Father of discrimination,written or unwritten!You will never be satisfied until all the minorities left the country,by then, a basket case(honestly,I really don't know 'cause god decided that I or other humans will not live forever,which is a good thing.....,hey!who said this is a great and wonderful world!) except the privileged class! I wonder if they will blame the stars and the moon,because there are not many minorities left, conveniently as usual,as the scapegoats!

Malaysia would be better place and would probably be alongside with Korea, hk or even Singapore if his grandfather had not migrated from India in the first place The systematic indoctrination of his warp ideology during his rule only serve the vested parties and his supporters has cause irreparable damage which would take decades to untangle and at worst case impregnated acceptance for future generation and continue to be main barrier for our country to be alongside be progressive democratic nations and always be known as a 3rd world countries. Just look at our pathetic education, law enforcement,judicial and burgeoning civil servants with digressive productivity after 54 years of independents and 22 golden years of it was from a man who wanted to undo the wrong. Do you want to give him second chance?

Other things I don't know, all I know is if he were to be PM again, the Crooked Bridge to Singapore will be realized in one years time.

Yes, he will prioritize by putting Bumi interest first. Enough of his racial destructive ideas, his legacy speaks volumes.

Don't have another silly wishful thinking because how can such thing to such a person like you.

Please dont come back, you should join PERKASA and work together like that bloody fool Ibrahim ALI the katak. Both you are so useless and is not an asset tom the people of malaysian. You have ruin this country terribly. Let Mr Najib rebuild Malaysia since you have done so much damage. Stay at home and play with you grandchildren. please feel ashame of your incable leadership. No one appreciate what you have done. You should sit down with that katak and have a nice of coffee in the coffeshop. You are not capabale like our neighbour;s ex PM.

Singaporean here, in response to raffid, LKY's policies are also very much criticized lol, the problem with these leaders is that they need to listen to the voices of the people, that's why we elected them to power. They're ruling like ignorant selfish kings in their ivory towers, hence bit by bit we smash their towers down with the power of social media.
