Suggestions for a Better Malaysia

An excellent list of suggestions for a better Malaysia, some that caught my eye:

  • Fix the minimum Salary to RM950
  • Implement an objective based evaluation and appraisal system for the government sector.
  • All the existing reservation for Malays will remain with a change that these reservations are valid for ONLY the Malays, who’s income is less than RM2000
  • Houses which are worth more that 250k wont have any bumi quota as these people are considered rich and do not need government assistance
  • All the places of worship which are more than 25 years will be given land title; Provided it has been proved so in the court
  • If any place of worship has to give way for development; the notice of 6 months will be given to the management of such places from the date of allocation of relocation place.
  • All the places of worship which has mushroomed in last 25 years will be given notice to integrate with the older places of worship.
  • Permits for new places of worship will be given, provided there is no such place existing in 10 sq km area of the requested place.
  • Clarify the ambiguity between civil and Syariah law
  • Press will be free to publish their views and other citizen views in all matters except the religious matters which are explosive in nature.
  • Blogs and other media will be motivated and enlightened of the responsible journalism from time to time will be allowed to publish all the matters except the religious matters which are explosive in nature.
  • ISA will be amended so that it won’t be able to use against any citizens for any political reasons. It will solely be used against terrorists and external forces trying to harm the country.
