Melayu, where are you going?

GUEST BLOGGER

By Gondrong

Soalan-soalan pembuka gelangang kepada orang Melayu.

Kek ekonomi negara sudah sebesar mana agaknya? Bagaimana pembahagiannya ?

Bolehkah sasaran negara berpendapatan tinggi dan 20 negara terhebat dengan pendapatan cecah trillion dapat memastikan kek ekonomi di agih secara adil dan saksama?

Diukur dari segi penguasaan ekonomi antara kaum, Melayu bangsa majoriti di Malaysia masih ketinggalan jauh.

Sebahagian besar kaum Cina terus bergerak laju menguasai sebahagian besar kek ekonomi.  Manakala hanya kelompok Melayu kecil merasa bahagian kek yang besar dan agak selesa.

Siapa kelompok kecil Melayu yang merasa kek ekonomi yang besar dan banyak daripada keseluruhan kek ekonomi Melayu?

Di mana kedudukan dan kelompok kecil Melayu ini berada dalam pembahagian keseluruhan kek ekonomi  negara?

Adakah kelompok kecil Melayu ini boleh bertahan dan terus dapat mengembangkan kek ekonomi mereka untuk dikongsi secara merata dengan golongan pertengahan dan bawahan?

Agak berapa peratus golongan pertengahan dan bawahan ini mendapat bahagian mereka?

Jurang ekonomi yang semakin melebar sesuatu yang tidak bagus untuk negara. Malah, boleh mendatangkan impak jauh lebih buruk.

  1. Saya rasa soalan2 yg anda tanya telah dijawab oleh economist Dr Muhammad Abd Khalid melalui bukunya 'The colour of inequality'. Beliau adalah economist yg ulasan nya mengenai bajet dlm rancangan rtm menjadi viral.

  2. Saya kurang bersetuju dengan kata-kata kelompok Melayu kecil sahaja merasa kek ekonomi.saya rasa hampir semua rakyat Malaysia merasa kek ekonomi yang berkembang.
    Kita bukan negara sosialist yang secara idealnya semua orang berkongsi kek ekonomi secara sama rata.

    1. Sebagai professor jgnlah main rasa aje, carilah fakta. Ini fakta dari buku Dr MAK:

      Wealth composition (2009)
      > Financial Assets (mean ~RM 18k), 53% of population with zero ownership;
      > Propert assets, 25% of population with zero ownership.

      Ini pula fakta pemilikan ASB (2012)
      > RM5k & kebawah: 73.7% of unit holders yg memiliki 3.2 % dari jumlah tabung ASB;
      > RM 50k-500k: 7.7% of unit holders yg memiliki 65.9% dari jumlah tabung;
      > RM500k keatas: 0.2 % yg memiliki 7.7% dari jumlah tabung.

      Kalau nak tahu belilah buku Dr Muhammad, RM40 je, x sampai 0.5% gaji prof sebulan

    5. Prof 21:05, saya rasa sampai kiamat pun BR1M tak akan merapatkan jurang antara top 1% dan bottom 40%.

      Bagi saya perkara paling penting ialah education system: kurangkan agama di sekolah, kukuhkan pelajaran bahasa inggeris, & kembalikan biasiswa & kuota mrsm kpd pelajar yg berhak.

      Kedua, perlu ada perancangan & kesungguhan untuk mengurangkan tenaga buruh asing di m'sia. Jgn dilayan sgt tokey2 yg dah punya kekayaan lebih 3 keturunan. Akan tetapi jgn le buat perkara bodoh umumkan nak berhentikan semua pekerja asing serta merta. Business perlukan masa untuk buat perancangan & capital untuk berubah kepada teknology lebih tinggi.

      Anyway, ini ulasan 2 sen saya. Saya bukan economist, cuma saya heran -
      Anda, saya, cik minah & ramai lagi berjaya mengubah nasib keluarga dgn pelajaran tapi ini tidak lagi berlaku pada hari ini.

  3. Bagaimana kamu menilai kedudukan Melayu dalam 'KEK EKONOMI' ? Adakah berdasarkan jumlah JUTAWAN MELAYU.........????'

    Kalau di nilai dari sudut Melayu sebagai golongan MENENGAH dalam Kek Ekonomi itu, jawabnya memang sudah tercapai. Setengah daripada kek ekonomi itu adalah kelompok Melayu Menengah. Kejayaan ini adalah hasil daripada dasar ekonomi baru juga bila Melayu diberi peluang untuk meningkatkan diri melalui pendidikan tinggi.

    Malang sekali, Melayu memang gagal dalam dunia perniagaan walaupun kerajaan sudah buat macam-macam cara untuk galak Melayu bergiat dalam bidang ini. Jumlah jutawan Melayu di kalangan ahli perniagaan memang boleh dikira dengan jari. Daripada 20 jutawan Cina, Melayu cuma ada 3-4 orang sahaja. Tetapi, sekarang ini jumlah ini mungkin sudah meningkat kerana ramai Melayu sudah jadi jutawan, tapi hanya di kalangan pemimpin umno. Tengok je duit kerajaan yang lesap, takda yang kecil jumlahnya. Semuanya makan puluhan atau ratusan juta!!!

    Namun, saya bersyukur sudah berjaya masuk ke dalam kelompok besar golongan menengah Melayu dalam kek ekonomi itu. Walaupun tidak jadi JUTAWAN, kami juga dapat menegecap hasil DEB zaman Tun Mahadir dulu.

      Kalau kita tukar kerajaan, kek ekonomi takkan 100% kepunyaan Melayu. Tidak juga 100% kepunyaan bukan Melayu. Yang penting MO1 ditangkap dan dihadapkan ke mahkamah. Tapi, kalau kita tak berani kerana sentaiasa dimomokkan dengan persoalan MELAYU, WHERE ARE U GOING - Kek ekonomi dah tinggal sekeping kecil untuk kamu. Elok sokong Najib. Kalau kita tak berani, hidup kita semua rakyat Malaysia takkan berubah sampai bila-bila. Bila tak berubah..........
      Jangan merungut kalau GST dinaikkan jadi 13% atau16%. Jangan menangis kalau harga minyak naik sampai rm500..00 seliter, jangan menangis kalau semua anak-anak jadi mat rempit walaupun berijazah, jangan menangis kalau harga b eras naik melangit dan kita terpaksa makan bubur air.

  6. Kekayaan dimiliki kelompok kecil ini terlalu besar sehingga memakan bahagian yang sepatutnya menjadi milik dan dapat dinikmati kumpulan M40 dan B40. Ukuran bagi mencapai sasaran negara berpendapatan tinggi banyak diambil daripada kekayaan kelompok kecil itu. Secara 'ukur halus' Melayu masih terlalu jauh ke belakang.

  7. Melayu dalam apa jua keadaan terus tewas di atas pentas yang secara fizikal nampak mereka berkuasa. Kuasa yang ada semakin terhakis sebab Melayu berpecah2 jadi kelompok2 kecil, tertinggal jauh dalam penguasaan ekonomi, jatidiri pun tidak ketentuan lagi, banyak ajaran agama Islam tidak dipatuhi, sebahagian kecil kelompok Melayu sendiri jelek melihat keadaan bangsanya; bahasa, budayanya pun sudah tidak lagi dihayati.

      Haram jadah - ditujukan kepada peneroka Felda yang dituduhnya tidak menyokong Barisan Nasional.

      Bangang – ditujukan kepada blogger/laskar siber Umno yang bergaduh sesama sendiri.

  10. Gondrong,

    //Sebahagian besar kaum Cina terus bergerak laju menguasai sebahagian besar kek ekonomi.//

    Personally, I think this is bullshit.

    As far as I am concerned, it is just old bullshit brought out time and time again to justify the discrimination against the Chinese.

    From what I can see, the Malays control most of the economy either directly or by proxy thru UMNO nominees or GLCs like Tabung Haji, Khazanah, FELDA, etc etc.

    You think Vincent Tan controls 100% of his company? Think again.

    You think the family of Yeoh Tiong Lay controls 100% of YTL Corporation? Think again.

    You think any Chinese tycoon controls 100% of his company? Think again.

    Every single one of those big companies will have huge shareholdings linked to UMNO nominees and proxies, GLCs, etc.

    I doubt if many of those Chinese tycoons even have majority shareholdings in their companies - they, most likely, just have large blocks of voting shares, and not a majority share.

    AND the Chinese suffer from the very same problems as the Malays, i.e. only a small number control most of the wealth.

    It is easy to see which Chinese control the wealth - they stick out like sore thumbs, they have been around a long time, they are your Vincent Tans, your Yeoh Tiong Lays.

    Not so easy to see which Malay controls the wealth because it is all spread out and hidden behind the Tabung Hajis, the Khazanahs, the FELDAs, the proxies, the cronies, the GLCs, etc.

    Folks, we have been played for suckers all these years.

    Consider this.

    I think the average income for each Malaysian is supposed to be US$12,500 per annum.

    Ask yourself - how many people do you know actually make around RM50K a year?

    For those who do not make RM50K a year, who in the hell has their share of the remainder?

    Here is an example.

    10 people.

    1 person makes RM910K a year.

    The other 9 persons make RM10K each a year.

    The total for those 10 people is RM1million a year.

    The average for those 10 people is RM100K each.

    That is how statistics can lie.

    So, I ask you again - do you make RM50K a year, because that is supposed to be the average income?

    If you do not make RM50K a year, who has your share of the remainder?

    It ain't me, that's for sure.

      You are right.

      There is a Crony Class in Malaysia that controls most of the wealth.

      It is MCA-linked Chinese tycoons "greasing" palms of Umno.

      Classic Ali-Baba, lah.

      The problem is that because of this, Malaysia will never become fully competitive.

      Corruption is an easy way out - it weakens the intellect and the drive to make a difference.

      If Steve Jobs was Malaysian, he would have sat on his backside, paid a few million to some Cinapek to make products in China, and got millions as an Apple director.

      But zero hunger, zero invention, zero anything else...

  12. Melayu... biar papa asal bergaya je yang banyak. Kerja tak seberapa, tapi credit-card ada 10 keping. Megah la konon, mampu berbelanja guna credit-card. Akhirnya, hutang keliling-pinggang demi menampong kehidupan mewah dan bergaya.
    Akibatnya, terpaksa kerja bertungkus-lumus, termasuk part-time, siang-malam kerana terdesak bayar hutang.

    Kalau duit gaji tak cukup, cari dari sumber lain... dan dari sinilah bermulanya rasuah & klepet WANG orang lain atau Rakyat.

    Akibat desakan untuk hidup bergaya dan hutang terpaksa dibayar, habis asset & tanah-pusaka tergadai. Dah lama dah benda sebegini, sejak dari zaman Penjajah lagi... Tumasek, Pulau Pinang (malah Seberang Perai dipajak), Selatan Thai (Narathiwat, Yala & Songkla).

    Berterusan sehingga kehari ini. Oleh itu, marilah kita beramai-ramai menyanyikan lagu 'Anak kecil bermain api'.
    Kalau dulu, lagu ni menjadi kemestian dinyanyikan beramai-ramai dalam PAU. Nampakgayanya, bermula zaman UMNO-Najib, lagu ini sudah mula dilupakan.

  16. Wow!!

    Came across the following comments while browsing some website which featured this very article "Melayu, where are you going?"

    The figures quoted appear to be official Govt figures and it is quite revealing.

    It is quite tough going dissecting and digesting the comment but well worth the effort.

    Note that the figures are for 2011 and 2014.

    Basically, it is as follows.

    Malays control about 23% of equity and GLCs (i.e. Malay interests) control about 20%, giving Malays about 43% of everything - 2011 figures.

    The Chinese control about 32%, the Indians about 2% and presumably foreign interests control about 23% - 2011 figures.

    Of the Top 20 money earners (2014 figures), Malays make up more than half - 53%. Most of them are government servants.

    For the M40, Malays make up 64% of this group.

    For the B40, Malays make up 73%!!

    When Malays are taken as a group by themselves, only 16% of Malays amongst Malays are in the T20, 38% in the M40, and 44% in the B40 (2% in rounding errors).

    Still think the Chinese control the economy?

    'Melayu where are you going?"
    Answer -Laughing all the way to the Bank doing little
    the 20 % does not enclude another 20 -30 % of GLCs run by government and pension funds.

    KUALA LUMPUR: The equity ownership of the Bumiputera and Indians in Malaysia recorded an increase between 2000 and 2011.

    Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Abdul Wahid Omar said the percentage of Bumiputera equity ownership increased to 23.5% in 2011 from 18.9% in 2000.

    In terms of value it was RM211.5 billion in 2011 compared to RM62.98 billion in 2000.

    The Indians held a 2.4% share of the equity ownership pie in 2011, an increase from 1.5% in 2000. In terms of value it was RM21.3 billion in 2011, up from RM.5.14 billion in 2000.

    The equity ownership of the Chinese dropped to 32.2% in 2011 from 38.9% in 2000, but showed an increase in value from RM129.32 billion to RM290.3 billion in the same period.

    Abdul Wahid said this in a written reply to a question by Datuk Wira Ahmad Hamzah (BN-Jasin) who wanted to know the latest statistics on the value and percentage
    of equity ownership based on race.

    Abdul Wahid said the equity ownership for the year 2014 is still in the data analysis process, and that the 11th Malaysian Plan has set several programmes and action plans to increase the equity ownership of the bumiputera to at least 30% by 2020.

    PARLIAMENT Bumiputera households make up the majority of the country's top 20 percent income earners (T20), but the community also sees the widest intra-group income disparity.

    According to data from a parliamentary written reply, the bumiputera make up 53.81 percent of the T20 category, followed by Chinese at 37.05 percent, Indians at 8.80 percent and others at 0.34 percent.

    However, when the comparison is made within the bumiputera group itself, T20 earners only comprise 16.34 percent.

    The remaining comprises the middle 40 percent income earners (M40) at 38.96 percent and the bottom 40 percent income earners (B40) making up the majority at 44.7 percent.

    This is in contrast with the Chinese and Indian communities, where the M40 group makes up the majority.

    Within the Chinese community, the T20 group makes up 29.66 percent, followed by the M40 group at 42.32 percent and B40 at 28.02 percent.

  19. Gladiator,

    "Bumiputera makes up 53.81 percent of the T20 category". While I don't doubt this number, I do think the ethnic chinese percentage in the T20 is under represented. According to world bank, the size of msia shadow economy is about 30% of gdp (pre gst).

    Which group do you think has highest representation in the shadow economy whereas those makan gaji cannot lari or hide their income.
