    Anwar: Back us if you agree with our policies Malaysiakini.com March 3, 2007 Soon Li Tsin Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor Anwar Ibrahim made a fiery speech asking for opposition party leaders and members to work hard in the coming elections. Speaking to a 600-strong crowd that gathered at the party’s Chinese New Year open house in Kuala Lumpur last night, Anwar tested his Mandarin much to the crowd’s delight. “Xin nian hao, nian nian hao (happy new year, every year’s a good year),” he greeted to start off his address. In his speech that was sandwiched between singing and harmonica performances, he touched on several issues briefly including the recent dip in the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index. “We want our economy to be better and not have the market perform so badly [...] we don’t want the cost of living to rise ... we want our economy to be taken care off. “If we want every year to be good, we must work hard because Malaysia is (a) good (country), the people are good but the government is not good,” he smiled as the crowd gave a thunderous applause. No empty promises The former deputy premier then switched to a serious tone as he made references to the coming general election. “I’ll be honest tonight, I believe people will be spirited in the coming elections. Last time, Pak Lah had plans but his plans have all been postponed. “We must work hard to change the government. If want to really change the government, we must have a good programme for the people,” he said.

  • Chinese Responses to Malay Hegemony in Peninsular
    KyotoKyotoUniversity University Southeast Asian Studies, Vol. 34, No. 3, December 1996 Chinese Responses to Malay Hegemony in Peninsular Malaysia 1957-96 HENG Pek Koon' Owing to their status as an irnmigrant minority community, the political, social ancl economic life of Chinese in Peninsular Malaysia (known as Malaya in the period before 1963) has inevitably been shaped by initiatives emanating from the dominant Malay community. According to the latest census figures released in 1995, Chinese form 29.4% of the population in Peninsular Malaysia compared to 57.4% for Malays and 9,5% fer Indians [Government of Malaysia, Department of Statistics Malaysia 1995: Vol.1, 40]. This paper examine$ the impact oi Malay hegemony, which emerged with independenee in 1957, on Chinese political and economic life. The interplay of Malay ascendance and Chinese responses over the last four decades has undergone three distinct phases: (1) 1957-69 Alliance coalition rule; (2) 1970-90 National Front (Barisan Nasional) coalition rule and implementation of the New Economic Policy (NEP); (3) 1991-present implementation of the National Development Policy (NDP). During the first phase, Chinese experienced meaningful political participation and made significant economic gain$. The second phase saw concentration of power in the United Malays National Organization (UMNO), a eoncerted implementation of Malay affirmative action policies, and a concomitant m'arginalization of Chinese political activity. In the current phase, NDP "Vision policies, shaped by the objectives of Prime Minister Mohamad Mahathir's 2020," have produced a political and economic climate more conducive to Chinese interests. Befere turning to a discussion of Chinese and economic activities in the country, I political "Malayness" would like to first consider the manner in whieh the three core ethnic identifiers of bahasa, agama, 7zlj'a (language, religion and royalty) have been utilized by the Malay political leadership in public policies to reflect Malay hegemonic status in the Malaysian polity.

  • Transcript of Prime Minister's Interview with Members Of
    1 TRANSCRIPT OF PRIME MINISTER'S INTERVIEW WITH MEMBERS OF THE CHINESE PRESS IN HOKKIEN RECORDED AT TV SINGAPURA STUDIOS ON 13TH SEPTEMBER, 1965. (TRANSLATION) Reporter: Mr. Lee, what is your opinion regarding recent developments in the situation in Sabah and Sarawak? Prime Minister: First, I must state clearly that this is not our problem, but the problem of a foreign country. Government leaders of Malaysia have always said that the people of Singapore should not interfere with their affairs. So I can only make a general analysis here, because the development of the situation there will inevitably have an influence on our position. A few days ago, I had talks with a few leaders of Sabah and Sarawak; they wanted to pay me a courtesy call when they passed through Singapore. I could not refuse to meet them. It would have been very rude to refuse, therefore, I met them. lky\1965\lky0913.doc 2 I think they must have a "Malaysian Malaysia". If there is not, the consequences will be very serious. Geographically, Sabah and Sarawak are unlike the States of Kedah and Kelantan. They are wide areas. The area of Sabah is almost as large as that of the Malay Peninsula; so too, Sarawak. All should live peacefully and tolerate each other. There should be no such thing as "one race, one language. one culture" It is unwise to say such things. Reporter: Mr. Prime Minister, what do you think of the fate of the few million "Malaysians"? Prime Minister: This will depend on whether they were forced to leave Malaysia.
