NEP punishes talented Malays too, says Nazir Razak
June 20, 2010
KUALA LUMPUR, June 20 — CIMB chief Datuk Seri Nazir Razak today repeated his call for a review of the New Economic Policy (NEP), adding that the policy has been unfair to the majority of Malays.
Nazir, who is also a younger brother to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, said the time has come for the government to protect the interest of the majority of the Malays and not just selected few.
"I have met a Malay professional overseas who refused to return to Malaysia because he is of the view that successful Malays are not welcomed in the country. This is because the Malays' success is always linked to NEP," said Nazir in an interview with Mingguan Malaysia published today.
"In fact some of them refused to return thinking that the NEP is not for them but only to selected Malay groups, so they are better off working overseas," he said when asked if the new generation of Malays are more open to reviewing the policy.
