Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad: Don’t question Malay rights

(The Malaysian Insider) – Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has told non-Malays that they should stop questioning the special rights of the Malays and count themselves privileged, having been given citizenship and other rights in this country.
Malaysia Today

Once again, Dr. Mahathir wants to remind Malays to stop questioning about their rights.

Thinking far

From a comment I saw on the page, someone said:

Bye bye Vincent Tan (CEO, Berjaya Group)
Bye bye Francis Yeoh (MD, YTL)
Bye bye Ananda Krishnan (CEO, Maxis Communication)
Bye bye Robert Kuok (Chairman, Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts Chain)
Bye bye Tony Fernandez (CEO, Airasia)
Bye bye Genting Highlands (Lee) (No tax revenue)
Bye bye Magnum 4D (No tax revenue)
Bye Carlsberg & Guinness Anchor!

Is this what Malaysia hopes to achieve?

I remember a couple of months ago hearing “Negarakuku”, a song written based on the tune of “Negaraku”. Here’s the lyrics

Cina balik Cina
Kalau semua balik ah
Sini bukan Malaysia

I really don’t understand all these. Can anyone explain?

This post is just here to share with you what I read online. I have no comments at all.

[news] Hyundai Motor boss guilty of embezzlement

Felix Ker — Mon, 05 Feb 2007 10:11:22 +0000

Wow. I was browsing through ChannelNewsAsia and this caught my attention.Â Â

SEOUL : The head of South Korea’s largest automaker Hyundai Motor was convicted Monday and jailed for three years for creating a multi-million dollar slush fund to bribe politicians and officials.Chung Mong-Koo, 68, was found guilty of embezzling around 90 billion won (US$96 million) through fraudulent accounting and of breach of trust, in what a Seoul court called a “clear-cut criminal act.”

…

“Hyundai Motor is now at a critical juncture. If Chung goes back to prison, it is certain to hurt the company’s image abroad, dealing a blow to its investment plans and decision-making process,” Kyobo Securities analyst Lim Chae-Koo told AFP.

Embezzling 90 billion Â (equivalent US$96million) is what I cannot imagine myself doing. Hold on. He used the huge amount to bribe politicians and officials.

I really wonder what will become of South Korea’s economy in the near future. Will much people still believe in Hyundai cars in future?

I’m still interested in knowing why he bribed the officials. It’s not covered in news. Someone fill me in please.
