MCA: 51% bumi equity for freight forwarders against country's goals of creating pro-business environment

PETALING JAYA: The requirement of 51% bumiputra equity in freight forwarding companies is unfair to local businesses and is against the country's goals of creating a pro-business environment, says Datuk Tan Teik Cheng.

The MCA vice-president urged the Finance Ministry to abolish such a requirement.

"According to reports, foreign companies and listed companies do not need to comply with this requirement for bumiputra shareholding, but local companies must abide by this rule.

"Wouldn't this discourage local SMEs and give foreign companies and listed companies more competitive advantage? This is obviously very unreasonable," he said in a statement on Friday (Sept 24).

Tan, who is also the Penang Port Commission (PPC) chairman,said this regulation was no longer in line with current times, noting that the government should abolish it in order to create a business-friendly, transparent and performance-based environment to cater to an increasingly competitive market.

He added that the government can formulate other policies to support bumiputra development, but it should not cause injustice to the non-bumiputras.

Otherwise, Tan said such a policy is only self-defeating, a stumbling block that hinders national progress and economic development that will ultimately only see the people suffer.

On Sept 22, online portal MalaysiaKini reported that the Federation of Malaysian Freight Forwarders had voiced concerns about such a requirement that would have an impact on the future of these companies.

And many so called elite Malay or Malay Champion Politicians can trace their root to many other countries.

So while these elite Malay become richer the many poor kampong or urban Malay become poorer B40.

One things for sure is Western leaders are pround to say out lound that their family were one an immigrant.

The only question is why the so called Malay Champion Politicians (who able to trace their root to other countries) are so adamant to call themselve Bumi-putra and trying so hard to prove he is more Malay than local Malay and more Muslim than a local Muslim Malay?

Is this because they just want to hijack the Malay identity to enrich themselve?

Foreign funds’ interest in bonds to persist

On another note, foreign investors remained net buyers of Malaysia’s debt securities at RM3 billion for the fourth consecutive month in August, lower than the RM7.1 billion in the preceding month. With that, the total foreign holding of debt securities edged up to RM209 billion, the highest level since March 2018. Its share to Malaysia’s overall debt increased to a seven-month high of 13.3%.

What to scare about hospital? I wear Three Face Masks to go to hospital.
And hospital every corner has hand sanitizers. So I use a lot of hospital free hand sanitizers, to rub it on my palms, my hand phone, my handbag, and my car remote control. Make full use of hospital hand sanitizers lah.
Consultation fees alone cost Rm100, haven’t add in medication fees yet. Omg.

In Africa, African years ago already infected by Elephants virus and Lions virus and all types of animals viruses there. So you see a continent full of animals viruses can protect African from Covid virus. So African populations are immune to Covid.
African have Ebola, MERS, Nile mosquito virus, Yellow fever virus, Dengue Virus, Chikungkuya virus, AIDS virus, Monkeys pox virus, H1N1 virus, etc. You just name them.
My theory lah.
