Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced in Parliament on Monday that a government measure will soon be introduced, stating the sale of bumiputera shares or companies will only be offered and sold to fellow bumiputera consortiums, firms and individuals.
This framework is part of the government’s bidding to further empower the community under the 12th Malaysia Plan (12MP).
“This step is to improve the implementation of the bumiputera agenda with good governance. A bumiputera development action framework will be announced at the end of this year.
“This will detail some of the key initiatives to achieve the goal of improving the socio-economic status of this group,” he said.
As many of us have taken notice, not everyone was in agreement with this agenda.
Many have taken to their social media to protest the ruling and made claims that it was unjust and made at the expense of other Malaysians.
