-
A RM 120 million residential propagandize for FELDA young kids - a Maktab Rendah Sains Mara (MRSM) in Trolak, Perak. Compare this with a recent promise of an allocation of RM100 million by a Prime Minister for 523 Tamil schools in a country, for that there is no evidence of value anyway. There have been 42 MRSM schools similar to a a single above in a country.
-

-
More than 77% of a Government administration department department members have been of Malay Muslim ethnicity.

If they have been released from a numbers employed by a Government administration, a picture that emerges is about an altogether appearance of 85% Malays in a administration
-
The Malay Muslim employees of a administration department department go by special programs of precision called National Civics Bureau where they have been all prepared upon how to keep "the wealth of a family inside of a family" in short how to operationalize a extremist policies of a Government. This is a most criticized activity, though a Government continues with parole as it is a pass approach in recreating that extremist bureaucracy.
-
The Mainstream media blocks out, demonizes as good as distorts information of any organization that speaks out opposite this extremist complement in a coordinated fashion. The Government uses a Printing Presses as good as Publications Act as good as tying tenure to known allies to carry out a Media to do this.
-

The Malaysian minorities long to live with grace as good as leisure though have been denied grace as good as leisure by a extremist complement of administration department department that has grown over a final 50 years in a name of certain movement for a majority.

It is time for a international village to hold a Malaysian supervision under obligation for this performance. The universe has to arise up to these developments in Malaysia, for a destiny of this arena is being told many times over, in what is function around a universe today.
