COMMENT | No other country on earth can be more multicultural, multifaith, multiethnic and muhibbah than Malaysia, and yet, when it comes to Malaysia Plans, our leaders suffer from moral cowardice.

Will it break the bank to accord equal status to the non-Malays, irrespective of their socio-economic status, in the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP)? The 13MP has not shed its race-based agenda.

Were the formerly "Malaysian Malaysia" DAP politicians ambushed by pro-bumiputera cabinet members into accepting another recycled version of a bumiputera agenda?

I cannot be the only one who is troubled by living in a “two-tiered” nation where one race is treated preferentially over all others.
