Malaysian Tamils = Malays ( Almost ) - Part 2

NOTE : I think not twice but more than ten time before post this article . Because , base on some senior bloggers , my previous post very much provoking and today's blogging atmosphere not save enough for this kind of post . I'm not discussing about any sensitive issue , but using very subtle and critical facts as examples to show the existing similarities between Malays and Malaysian Tamils . CONTINUE READ THIS ARTICLE IF YOU OPEN MINDED ENOUGH , AS A TRUE MALAYSIAN:

This article is the continuation of yesterday's post "Malaysian Tamils = Malays ( Almost )" . But first come first , today's talk of the country " Badawi(PM) will retire march 2009 , about five months from now . He will be replaced by Najib , current DPM . Back the topic , Thanks for all my readers , and commentators who write a short( actually very long , lol ) and constructive comments base on yesterdays article . In the comments , the discussion topic been diverted from main title to somewhere comparing which school is better for build True Malaysians . Even thou diverted , yet i am really happy to discuse a good topic with my commentators . See the bright sight , i get know that , there are many readers out there ready to discuss about which school is best to build true Malaysians, SK or SJK . Wonderful , i got an idea to write an article , title , " SK Vs SJK - TRUE MALAYSIANS" , coming soon to your nearest townguy's blog , lol , really .

Here comes the case study of today ( continuation of yesterday's article ), another most significant similarities between Malays and Malaysian Tamils is , "Always Not Enough" , in Malay "Selalu Tak Cukup" .

As all Malaysian well aware , Malays(Bumiputra) of this country entitled with special prevelages , which know as "Hak Istimewa Bumiputra" . This special prevelage been stated in Malaysian constitution , Article 153 .Base on this article . In my opinion the special treatment( Hak Istimewa Bumiputra ) can be divided into tangible( official ) and intangible( unofficial ) form . Let us don't discuss about the intangible form , because it usually can be field in you normal life if you are not a bumiputra and quite sensitive to discussed about . Tangible hak bumiputra covers every aspect of human life , from buying home to admition for university and do a own business . After New Economy policy launched in , this Hak Istimewa Bumiputra been enforce more aggressively to improve the social level of Malays in this country . Everything done by government for Malays like Spoon feeding . Malaysia's Ex-PM Tun Dr.Mahathir have once stated in his speech , " Orang melayu disediakan semua yang dipelukan untuk maju , macam makanan yang sedia untuk dimakan , government dah pun cuma hingga suap makanan yang disediakan , tapi , orang melayu yang tidak mahu makan " . Many Malays angry with his statement , but he din't give a dame about that because he angry with Malays who reluctant to improve their self . This shows how spoon feeding the government to Malays all this time , but yet you and i can see , Malays say , they not enough with what they get as Malays(Bumiputra) and involve in demonstration against the goverment it self . Please make this clear here ,im not questioning Artcle 153 , just taking this issue to compare Malays with Malaysian Tamils . So don't be sensitive and assume that im questioning Hak Istimewa Bumiputra . The malays reluctant to improve fast ennough with sea wide apportunities . What the other races in Malaysia doing at the same time line , the opprtunity not wide open as Malays , yet they squezee through small opprtunities , work hard and improve their life style , aspecialy Chinese community .

Now we look at Malaysian Tamils , before i start talk , are you already start see the similarities ? yes/no , lol . Malaysian Tamils , largest ethnic group in Malaysia Indians .They do not have special prevelage as Malays . Becuse they are the largest ethnic group in Malaysia Indians( thirt largest Race in Malaysia ) , all the the benefit from goverment will reach this ethnic before disperse to other Malaysian Indian ethnic such as Malaysian Malayalee , Malaysian Telegu or Punjabi . You may turn back and ask , how it is possible? It is possible , if you aware , most of Malaysia Indian representatives( mostly politicians) are Tamils . In this 21st centuty im not provoking any Indian ethnic issue , but just take this whole fact as an case study to show the similarities between Malays and Malaysia Tamils . Back to story , the benefits which reach Malaysia Indian Community , mostly enjoy my Malaysian Tamils becuse of thier advantage as majority . The benefits are financial aid for tamil schools, vocational training , political power allocation , and etc . I make this point clear again , the goverment does not allocate the benefits specially for Malaysian Tamils , but they allocate the benefit for whole Indian community , but i saying the Tamils get more benefits because Malaysian Tamils are majority compare to other Malaysian Indian ethnics . Lately , i read a news in The Star newspaper, stating that , Vise Human Resource Minister( representative of MIC ) reveal , goverment allocated about 900 vocational training seats for Indians , but just about 250 Indian students register for the course . The goverment , doing their best for Malaysian Indians , but we our self not aware of this opportunities . End up pointing our fingers fowards goverment and accuse them for not doing enough for our community . Here i say WE , means , Malaysian Tamils . What other Malaysian Indian ethnics such as Malaysian Malayalee , Malaysian Telegu , or Punjabi( sikh ) did in the same timeline where we busy accusing the goverment . They aware of their position as minority , use well the small opportunities , work hard and develop their life style . Good example , we can look at Malaysian Punjabi ( sikh ) community today.

Hope by now , you understand a bit atleast about the complex issue which i tried my level best to explain to all of you . As a conclusion , Malays and Malaysian Tamils demonstrate another similiraties which is , fail to identifie and utilise the oppotunities which the goverment provide , and at the same time , lack behind other races and ethnic . Sorry to be sound very racist or ethnist , lol , since last two days . All the fact above , i only took and talk about it just as an case study to explain the similarities between Malays and Malaysian Tamils . I my self is a Malaysian Tamil , and True Malaysian , just take this article as an exercise for your mind to understand the complexity of races and ethnic . Thanks for the support .
