Bugis PM, Javanese minister, new race relations policy in ever-colourful 1Malaysia

A Malaysian minister has announced new citizenship rules and a new housing policy for urban dwellers, in a sudden policy decision that is expected to make an immediate impact on race relations. It will also boost the minister’s popularity in his party and chances of re-election to the Umno Baru party leadership council.

Catching members of the government and the public by surprise, the new minister of home affairs announced he was expanding his portfolio and would also become the minister of foreign home affairs.

He said Malaysians who comprised the 51% who voted against his Barisan Nasional party should emigrate to countries with a proportional representation voting system, so that they could practise their political beliefs.

The 51% voting majority comprises Malaysians of various ethnic communities descended from immigrants from neighbouring parts of South-East Asia.

The new minister, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi PhD, who is of Javanese descent, was appointed to the cabinet by the prime minister, Najib Razak, who is of Bugis descent.

He made the announcement in a column in the Utusan Malaysia newspaper owned by Umno Baru, and which is read mainly by those in the 47% minority of voters, comprising ethnic Malaysian Malays working in government or living outside towns.

The 51% voting majority comprises a total of 5.6 million Malaysians of various ethnic backgrounds: many are descendants of immigrants from southern China, southern India and Ceylon in addition to the new urban burgeoisie comprising descendants of immigrants from the neighbouring regions of the archipelago and South-East Asian mainland.

Questions of land titles

As yet there has been no reaction from members of the Orang Asli aboriginal tribes as to whether they will now make a claim to ownership of lands vacated by the 5.6 million urban Malaysians told to emigrate.

The new policy announced by Ahmad Zahid Hamidi PhD, the Javanese, introduces a volatile element into the potent brew of Malaysian ethnic relations, and also on Malaysia’s relations with foreign countries, many of whom supply a steady flow of New Malaysians, and other countries who are traditional recipients of Rejected Malaysians.

There has been no reaction by the foreign minister, Anifah Aman, who is a Muslim native tribesman from Sabah. A diplomatic silence is also being observed by the exporting or importing countries affected by the ruling.

Republicans and Democrats

Ahmad Zahid Hamidi PhD, the Javanese, said the 51% majority Malaysians should preferably emigrate to republican countries.

The coloured Kenyan from Hawaii. Say, who you calling coloured? I’m black, man. Yes, brown, but black.

There was no immediate reaction from the US Republican Party, which is largely composed of people with European parentage and classified as white, although mostly pink. However, political observers noted that the leader of the Democratic Party had recently made a widely-publicised telephone call to the leader of the Barisan Nasional.

The Democratic leader, Barack Obama, is of Kenyan parentage suspected of being born in the offshore territory of Hawaii, and is classified as black, although mainly brown and sometimes purple.

A multi-coloured nationality

It is not known what he said to the leader of the Barisan Nasional, Najib Razak, who is of Bugis ancestry, and also mostly brown but who sees himself as rainbow-coloured. His rivals and challengers, however, see him as being mostly yellow and chicken.

Najib Razak is the son of the famous Bugis lawyer warrior Tun Abdul Razak of Pekan, who benefited from a palace coup that overthrew his leader Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra, noted for his Siamese ancestry, horses and poker. The palace coup had been brought about by the Ultras, among whom was another Bugis, Harun Idris, leader of a minority government in Selangor, and future government leaders Mahathir Mohamad, variously described to be of Malayalee descent bordering on Tamil, and Musa Hitam, of Johor Malay-Chinese descent married to a Bolivian.

Both later took power as the 2M administration after deposing Tun Abdul Razak’s successor Hussein Onn, who was a by-product of a Turkish delight.

It is not known whether the new citizenship and housing policy announced by Ahmad Zahid Hamidi PhD, the Javanese, would involve mass transportation by the government to move out the 51% voting majority from their bases in urban centres.

Mass transit problem for Mindef

Recently, however, it was reported there were mass charter flights by the Barisan Nasional to transport large numbers of New Malaysians, formerly citizens of Indonesia, the Philippines, Bangladesh, Thailand, Burma, Vietnam and Cambodia.

The incoming minister of transport, Hishammuddin son of Hussein the Turk, has made no comment so far.

Hishammuddin the Turk, also appointed minister of defence, is known for his love of helicopters, motorcycles, water and cleaning contracts. Among the defence contracts he will now supervise is one for the supply of armoured vehicles made by Turks.

Extinct tribes hope for a place

There has also been no comment as yet from members of Umno’s East Malaysian native partners, or the handful of Barisan members who belong to almost extinct tribes descended from Tamil and Chinese immigrants.

Multi-coloured Malaysia prides itself as being Truly Asia to foreigners and Truly Malay to its supporters, who are mostly descendants of immigrants from Minangkabau, Aceh, Padang and other parts of Sumatra, Java, Sulawesi, and the Moluccas; many also claim descent from Arabs and Yemenis, Armenians, Europeans, Siamese, Turks, Chinese, Burmese, Tamils, Malayalees, Punjabis, Bengalis, Pathan, Sindhis, Gujeratis and other ethnic communities. A few are Portuguese. Jews, formerly passed off as Eurasians, are now mostly found in Perth.

The country formerly known as the federation of Malaysia has since been rebranded by Najib, the Bugis, as 1Malaysia, and is a wholly-owned subsdiary of Umno Baru.

A wholly-owned subsiary. Home of the few. Others can fuck off
