Dear Sir,

  Thank you for your commenting. I also hate the lastest educational policy
which implied by Mahathir and the Ministry of Education.
I understand your feeling. I myself was an oversea student at one time. I
hate the government now as they're putting the Malays 
in a reverse track. 
  Malaysia was a very poor country back in the 50's,60's and 70's but we're
still able to send few student to further their studies overseas. Even
Mahathir was one of them. Why? Because we hope these people will bring
brigther future for us. To become our leader, to educate us and to upgrade
our standard of living.
  BUT... in the midst of our wealth in the 90's these student were called
back by the goverment. We can't support them anymore. We got no money! But
yet, the government had enough to complete the F1 circuit which construction
never stoped or affected by the economic crisis! Basket Mahathir would
rather destroy our future  just for getting names?? To be known in the
world??? 
   Now everybody has to apply for loans to study! Mahashit policy is to give
chances to the wealthier family to give their son a good education but not
to the poor family. I've met hundreds of Malay student who are suffering to
further their studies in the IPTA and lots more who fail to further in the
IPTS due to money constraint! They have to wait for the loans at least one
semester!!! What are they going to eat? How are they going to pay the hostel
and the study fee?? Now the Malay student has to struggle not only about
their study but about their family financial as well! Again thank you to
Mahathir for making more and more low-educate Malays!
  Sir, you're are talking about racism! You said Malay is being protected by
the meritokrasi! In fact that is what lessen our Malay student percentage or
just an obstacle for them! Due to this merit and dimerit system the Malay
student has to compete with the non-malay EQUALLY ! And this is absurd!
Thank to the basket Mahathir!
  Your're talking about your unsatisfying feeling as the MALAY get all the
extra small benefits! Can you show me a country that does not give some
extra benefit to their bumis? Open your eyes widely. Have a look about the
Maori in NZ, the Aboriginies in Aussie,
or even the red indians in USA!!!! You want equal right?? You're lucky to
let be as yourself in this country. In Indonesia even your chinese name
aren't allow but to be a second name after an Indonesian name. Even you
Chinese people discriminates those Muslim Chinese in Yunan! You
discriminates them just because of their religion! What if they had
different colour of skin??  So I strongly suggest, that if you find it is
hard to live in Malaysia and can't stop fighting to get the equal rights
with the Malays, please go to other countries which suits you well! 
The Chinese have never been the ones who bring wealth to this land. Only
stupid people says that! We can be more wealthier 
than now wihtout your help as proven in Malacca Empire! The Chinese only
supplied us with a corrupt communities!
