Fewer Banana Men in Malaysia than Singapore!

I read Johan Bakri's writing. A real Malay fighting for the non Malays. Bravo!

Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew is a chinese. He shut down all chinese schools from primary to secondary, and University of Nanyang, a chinese medium university. The founder and main sponsor, Tan Lark Sye, a philanthropist, was stripped off his citizenship by Lee Kuan Yew. Should we label Kuan Yew anti- chinese? 

No Prime Ministers from UMNO had ever shut down a chinese primary school in Malaysia. There are 1289 chinese primary schools in Malaysia and none in Singapore. There are 60 chinese independent schools and 72 chinese medium secondary schools in Malaysia and none in Singapore. There are 3 colleges namely New Era, Southern College and Han Chiang college that are founded by chinese in Malaysia and chinese language is the medium in these 3 colleges and none in Singapore.Why don't we curse Kuan Yew for eliminating chinese education from Singapore?

In Malaysia, there are 13 chinese newspapers, of which 6 papers in Peninsula and 7 in Sarawak and Sabah. All chinese newspapers in Malaysia are controlled by chinese businessmen. In recent years, chinese newspapers and other media are no longer required to renew their annual printing license.

In Singapore, all chinese newspapers previously controlled by chinese businessmen were forced to sell and merged as one under Singapore Press Holding, a 100% government controlled company. LianHe ZaoPao is currently the only chinese paper in Singapore.

We have approximately 90 bus consortiums in Malaysia. 70% are directly and openly controlled by chinese such as LCB, KKKL, 707, etc. In Singapore, all private bus companies previously owned by chinese families, ceased to operate. All were sold to SBS, a 100% government company.

There are 2 major banks in Singapore which are owned by chinese and the banks management were dominated by family run structure. All were forced by Lee Kuan Yew to adopt management by professional. UOB refused to adopt. OCBC adopted and ended family controlled. DBS is a government bank. Today, UOB shares traded 2 times higher than OCBC and DBS. In actual scenario, only 1 bank in Singapore is controlled by chinese!

There may be weaknesses in the system in Malaysia. But BN has allowed chinese education, culture and tradition to grow in our society compared to Singapore PAP. At least there are fewer banana men* in Malaysia than Singapore.

* Banana men means non chinese educated as illustrated by Lee Kuan Yew himself.

One question only Mr Chia Jin Min : "Why are you, a Malaysian Chinese, working in Singapore not Malaysia?" 

I rest my case!
