Malaysia’s descent

Malaysia's Descent Into Desultoriness ==================================== Regrettably Malaysia, once considered an ace in Southeast Asia has lost its lovely lustre and now, it appears, even the plot. Malaysia used to be the region's bastion of political stability, had the longest tradition of a most feisty liberal democracy, a good civil service, education and health standards and an important destination of foreign tourists and investors and the biggest draw for unskilled workers from around the region and beyond.

This is a Malay fight for Malay interests among Malay politicians, like they are the only ones in this country. The non-Malays do not count – they never did for a very long time now. When the dust settled, it has become clear that the Malays (most of them anyway) have achieved what they wanted all along – A Malay Nation Governed by Malays for the Malays.
