Since it has 106 items, I can't list them all here. But I'll pick a
few examples ...
In 1987, the Malaysian government rounded up all the people who dare
to speak up against the government, and detained them for years and
years, without trial. The operation was named as "Operation Lalang".
This is a blatant violation of human rights.
In 1999, the Chinese community put out a list of requests, in the hope
that the Malaysian society can have a more leveled playing field for
all people. The government responded by accusing those who signed the
request as "COMMUNIST TERRORISTS".
In year 2001, the government ordered the closure of a Chinese primary
school, without any reason. Forcing the students who study there to
another school situated quite far away. The Chinese community objected
to it, but the government deployed armed police to chase away all the
children and their parents from that school. BTW, that Chinese school
is NOT owned by the government.
The local universities in Malaysia have a policy of limiting the
enrollment of ethnic Chinese students, even when the Chinese students
have scored much higher in all the examinations. The only reason for
the policy is that they want to reserve the slots for the Malays -- of
the majority Muslim population. Unlike America where you have more
university slots than students, in Malaysia, for every 100 eligible
students, there are only 80 slots. This means that the more qualified
Chinese students are shut out of university education, while the much
lower echelon's Malays students get to study. This is yet another
blatant violation of human rights.
In year 2005, the state of Selangor sent a delegation abroad, in the
name of "research". That trip cost the government a lot of money,
millions ! And it was later revealed that part of the delegation's
"research itineraries" included "belly dancing" and other vice
activities.
While the country is poor, with many citizens having no roof over
their head, the government spent 40MILLIONS to build 10 resort houses
for top civil servants. That 40MILLION, if applied in building
ordinary housing for the people, is equivalent to at least 400 houses,
or 2000 apartments !
The above is but a small portion of the 106 items mentioned in the
bn106.pdf file. The Malaysian government has done a lot of terrible
things, and the things I translated are of the "milder" kind. There
are more heinous crimes the Malaysian government has perpetrated.
The file listed 106 incidents done by the Malaysian government, no
added MSG at all. And yet, the government of Malaysia is afraid of the
world know of their dirty laundry. In this aspect alone, the Malaysian
government is no better than the Myanmar or the Chinese regime.
The old adage of "People Who Live In Glass Houses Should Not Throw
Stones" should be applied to the Malaysian government. They do not
want to be treated badly, but yet, they are treating other people
badly.
If they don't want their dirty little secrets to be known to the
world, then they shouldn't have done so many terrible things to their
own citizens.
