1,016,749 Biro Tata Negara “graduates” to implement UMNOs’ racist policies

UMNO is believed to have spent Millions if not Billions over the years to train 1,016,749 Biro Tata Negara “graduates” to implement their racist and religious extremist discriminatory policies in particular against the poor and working class Indians. In the Mid Term Review of the Ninth Malaysia Plan it was reported that 1,016,749 participants benefitted (“graduated”) from the Biro Tata Negara programmes (Utusan Malaysia Buliten 27/6/08 at page 19).

Our analysis based on the complaints we have received from the ground is that these Biro Tata Negara “graduates” are trained in a standardised fashion to reject especially the poor, illiterate and working class Indians right at the very first counter level stage itself by the counter clerks. For example for Birth Certificates, Identity Cards Welfare and handicapped persons financial help, Socso, low interest government business loans, business opportunities, licences Felda, Felcra, Risda, Fama and Agropolitian land ownership schemes livestock breeding etc.

The clearest example ever is the 150,000 Indian children who have deliberately been denied their birth certificates when the law as per Article 14 of the Federal Constitution states “……… every person born on or after Malaysia Day ……… are citizens by operation of the law.” The Universal Declaration of Human Rights 1978 states that “everyone has a right to nationality.” (The Sun 1/12/09 at page 10).

But these UMNO Biro Tatanegara “graduates” have caused not only grave pain and sufferings but also irreparable damage to the lives of especially these third, forth and even fifth generation Malaysian born 150,000 Indian children.

The NST on their 28/11/09 headlines however reports to the contrary.

Even the heart of the ISA Kamuniting prison had been infiltrated by these Biro Tata Negara officers who pulled up only the malay muslims and in their forum instilled hatred against the Indians and Hindraf. This caused discomfort to many of the participants including even some of the Jemaah Islamiah (J.I.) detainees who immediately came back and told us what went on. I had accordingly recorded this incident in my diary.

It was brought to our attention last month that in a civil servants “kursus” and at the end of a video presentation the photograph of Hindraf Chairman P. Waytha Moorthy appears with the sub titles “musuh utama negara”

We believe that even the Malaysia Courts and Judiciary have not been spared.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are believed to be thousands of such direct and indirect UMNOs’ discriminatory race and religious extremist based plans, policies and practices implemented on a day to day basis.

Attrocities of this nature does not take place in any other part of the world except in Malaysia. These kind of discrimination last ended in apartheid South Africa some twenty years ago in 1989 with the end of FW De Klerk’s rule.

We believe that even the Malaysian Courts and Judiciary have not been spared

But Malay-sian Prime Minister Najib Razak to the contrary goes on his One Malaysia propaganda.
