YOUR OPINION | “Most of them would love to go back to Malaysia, but they don’t see any future in the country.”
Meet Jocelyn Yow, the Mayor of California who considers Alor Setar her hometown
Vijay47: California’s Eastvale Mayor Jocelyn Yow is a product of racism. Yes, the same racism that we see daily from Puncak Alam to Alor Setar to Putrajaya to Kota Bharu, an attitude that seems to flourish with greater enthusiasm every day. And blooming uncontrollably, I must add.
Yow also reflects the wonder of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans: cross either of them and a Malaysian is suddenly imbued with seemingly non-existent skill and talent while in Malaysia.
How many non-Malays are in senior positions in the public service? Perhaps the real question should be how many non-Malays are there in the entire civil service. How many non-Malays are the rectors of a public university?
Of course, it is possible that of the 40 percent of the population, there are simply not Malaysians capable enough to be appointed to positions of responsibility and authority.
Therefore, we must lean on admirable pillars like that individual drunk with power leading the Kedah state government or his close friend, the backward-brained district officer who delights in to name football stadiums or stadiums or whatever after it.
Congratulations Yow, your light is starting to shine under the bushel. Eastvale may be a small town, but it’s a great start.
With his natural talent and ability, Washington doesn’t have to be a distant star of wishful thinking. After all, the White House is fast becoming the domain of minorities!
Its success gives us some pride, reminds us of what it could be and, sadly, what it is.
Salvage Malaysia: While other countries may appreciate a person on merit without prejudice to race, gender and age, Malaysia’s leaders are regressing to the prehistoric era. How ironic.
Illustrated Globalist: At Bolehland, important positions in government, public universities, and government-linked companies (GLC) are reserved for a career. As the PAS says, it is better to be ruled by a corrupt Muslim than by an honest infidel.
The situation can only get worse, with decades of indoctrination based on the “supremacy “ politics. The cocktail of racial and religious intolerance is bad news for infidels.
Many non-Malays do what they say and emigrate. Among them was Yow. There was no way she could have been mayor if she had stayed here.
Look at the rage and anguish of the deep state and its supporters when the finance minister and attorney general were unfaithful.
Malaysians who have the opportunity should migrate. It may not always be a bed of roses, but over time, it would be far better than staying in a country that practices institutional racism and refuses to sign the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (Icerd).
Migrate at least for the future of your children and grandchildren. In Bolehland there is no future for the Chinese and the Indians.
BlackCougar8703: Walk into virtually any graduate department at any Australian university and you’ll find Malaysian students, many of whom work at the forefront of science, technology, informatics, and medical science.
Most of them would love to go back to Malaysia, but they don’t see any future in the country. These people should be a gift to the nation, but instead they will forge their often illustrious careers in Australia.
Recently, a prominent surgeon informed me that when he emigrated to Australia, he was immediately put in charge of an important department within a leading research hospital.
“In Malaysia, I’m just another non-bumiputera dog,” he informed me. “Why should I leave Melbourne?”
Can Malaysia afford this brain drain? More importantly, do the leading politicians have any idea of the talent they are losing and do they really care?
IndigoKite6964: How true. Malays are appreciated abroad, but not at home, especially when they belong to the minority sector. Will merits be the standard here? It does not seem.
To go back to Malaysia or not to go back to Malaysia is the question. We may want to make Malaysia a better place, but not until we remove all racial and religious parties and their policies from the country. Otherwise it is like throwing pearls to pigs.
So what will become of my beloved Malaysia? Nothing less than an implosion in a country that is dysfunctional, corrupt, racist and full of religious intolerance is at hand.
So we have to thank all the racist and religious politicians for doing a great job. Special mention for PAS and our first Malaysian politicians.
Ian2003: I think we should change the situation we find ourselves in, and not just rant about it.
Yes, the wall is thick and seems impenetrable, but so was the Berlin wall. We need more people to join Muda (Malaysian United Democratic Alliance) and support the cause to make it the formidable third force and consequently change the form of our government.
For that to happen, we must start with ourselves: first seek unity and harmony to overcome the dreaded political divide imposed on us by the node of race and religion in the name of royalty.
All is not lost when we can still have a non-Malaysian / non-Muslim prime minister, and if we can show that we have the caliber and are able to earn the trust of the Agong, and with enough support one day when we manage to come together as a race. of Malaysia so that even the post of prime minister can be filled by any Malaysian.
I think, therefore I exist: Now, for the first time in a long time, Malaysia is on the world map for the right reason.
As Malaysians, we are extremely proud that one of us has risen to the ranks of one of the most powerful nations in the world.
We wish Yow the best and we know that the state of California is so much richer because of her.
Alumoodan08: We hear this once too often. The same stone that this country rejects or does not give opportunity has once again become the cornerstone of another.
