Owen Jones to PMX: Don’t talk cock

KUALA LUMPUR, April 8, 2024: British columnist Owen Jones has posted an article on social media titled Anwar Ibrahim Don't Talk "Cock" by Owen Jones.

It looks like not only Malaysians are disappointed by Malaysia’s 10th Prime Minister (PMX) Anwar Ibrahim’s performance after a year but also foreigners, including investors.

Anwar has failed to show that he has the courage and political will to deal with or stop the growing threat to national unity and harmony by racial and religious bigots.

Anwar and his so-called Madani Unity Government are not cut out to reform Malaysia into a more progressive county, socially and economically.

Is this the way to progress as posted by Prof James Chin? Is this the way to resolve Malaysia's more than RM3 trillion debt (national debt + household debt)?

Meanwhile, in the real world for the past month ... while we are chasing shadows ...

Anwar Ibrahim Don't Talk "Cock" by Owen Jones

Thursday, March 31, 2022

Via WhatsApp : "Owen Jones wrote to Anwar Ibrahim - don’t talk cock.

I am a stout defender of you but I am certainly not averse to giving you a piece of my mind if it is needed. First and foremost Anwar Ibrahim - why were special privileges for Malays written into the Federal Constitution? It was simply because the Reid Commission which drafted it believed that the Malays were backward and needed particular attention for them to catch up with the rest.

The British had not seen the Malays do hard work as they had seen the Indians and Chinese do. This was also evident at the professional level. What the British probably noticed but were too polite to say was that Malays tended to go for easy jobs. . The fact that the British had to bring in others to do the work of developing the land or extract minerals was because the Malays did not want to do them.

This attitude among the Malays was what actually riled Mahathir into challenging Tunku Abdul Rahman. Tunku was quite happy to be a laid back administrator while others did the hard work. The fact is Anwar Ibrahim there is racial and religious discrimination even in the most advanced societies.

Why do you think the ‘Black Lives Matter’ and ‘say no to racism’ campaigns are happening? It is because of racial discrimination. But what is worse is that in Malaysia - there is not only racial and religious discrimination but they are official policies. If a country has laws that promote racial discrimination that nation is labelled as one that has an APARTHEID policy.

The truth is that the Reid Commission had included a moratorium on the ‘special privileges’ - they were to end in 1990. But the CC ( Federal Constitution Commission ) with a two-third majority in Parliament amended the Constitution to read as “for as long as deemed necessary” so that he and his cronies could continue the rape and plunder of the nation indefinitely. Please do not pretend that you do not know this Anwar Ibrahim.

Yes there is racial discrimination by other communities. But this is at the individual level. It is not policy. But why is it happening? Those who studied in the English medium schools never saw their fellow students as anything else. But all this changed when the conniving chameleon Mahathir became PM. English went out and in came a racist brand of education clearly intended to segregate the people. What Mahathir started in the 1970s is what we see today and what most of us including Tommy Thomas have seen.

It was so easy for TT to make a comparison because he worked with the crème de la crème in his legal profession and law firm. When he entered the civil service the disparity in standards shocked the life out of him. This is what the CC’s racist policies have brought about. Malays in high office and high positions who are there simply because they are Malay.

When people are given positions by virtue of ‘special privilege’ and not out of merit for their knowledge, experience and intelligence then we know the nation is in trouble. Don’t forget Anwar Ibrahim that you were tried and jailed by an incompetent judiciary that was just acting on the instructions of its political masters. And pray tell me, Anwar Ibrahim, how many Malay lawyers defended you?

Yes the bloated civil service is full of unqualified people who are otherwise unemployable outside. The mediocre education with low marks earning high grades has produced Malays holding certs that are not worth the paper they are printed on. . Pray tell me Anwar Ibrahim, how many non-Malays are employed in the civil service?

How many non-Malays are holding senior positions in the civil service? How many non-Malays are holding senior positions in GLCs? Why are the GLCs all such financial disasters? Why is it that only Malays can lead GLCs and govt depts?

How could you expect TT not to talk about the Malays only when there is practically nobody else in the civil service? Isn’t the absence of non-Malays itself damning evidence of the prevailing racial discrimination in this country?

TT has stated it as it is. The civil service and the GLCs are prime examples of the blind leading the blind or where mediocrity is the order of the day. Don’t try to defend the indefensible Anwar Ibrahim. The fact is that truth is often the most bitter pill. TT is a brave man to stand up for it.

So, Anwar Ibrahim please do not lose the respect of non-Malays and right thinking Malays by attempting a puerile coverup of the truth just to score some political brownie points. Anwar Ibrahim - today you have sown the seed of doubt as to your leadership qualities. Perhaps the MC is right after all - that you have no idea at all about what to do next - apart from theatrics that appeal to the gallery.

I am truly disappointed. DSAI also 1 cock colour la.

Flip-flop policies, racial and religious bigotry worsen Malaysia's brain drain woes and human capital flight. Those who can afford will not hesitate to migrate.
