Ahmad Maslan urges Malays to mend ways

Share
Malays should change their mindset to be in tandem with the objective of Vision 2020 which encompasses progress in education, business, unity, politics and leadership.

Umno Information chief Datuk Ahmad Maslan said they should also be competitive to be able to seize opportunities and be successful.

“The mentality and attitude of the Malays have to change so that they will be more open minded and competitive,” he said when opening the Wangsa Maju Umno divisional meeting here today.

Ahmad, who is deputy minister in the prime minister’s department, emphasised the need for Malays to acquire knowledge being that education was the basis for progress.

“Without knowledge, we cannot change the society,” he added. He also encouraged them to venture into the business sector for better income.

At a media conference later, Ahmad said there was no need for the government to entertain Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz’s call for the government to give time before holding a general election to enable the contesting political parties to prepare themselves. — Bernama

He claimed knowledge is important. But he refuse to allow longer time for election preparation so that people will not be fully informed on the right candidates and party to vote for and in turn rule the state or country. Anyway with Utusan dan TV3 the mindset of the Malays will be hard to change.
