Truth the majority doesn't wanted to hear has been spoken. (シ_ _)シ
I'm not sure if you're Malaysian, but regardless, equality and equity are not the same thing, which has been completely ignored by this guy.
Is there an inequity issue still? I don't know, but it hasn't been addressed.
Cope argument. Bumi myself, I know plenty of other Bumis from privileged backgrounds getting opportunities despite having lesser credentials.
But do they have privileged backgrounds because they're Bumi, or because of something else?
That's the inequity the systems originally tried to address.
Who gives a shit how their family got their privilege? What matters is in the present that their children is taking that opportunity from someone else that could've used it. If their family's past was a struggle but they've made it now, they can afford to go elsewhere and leave that opportunity to someone in need.
