Perkasa: Impossible for Malays to compete economically because of Islam

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 15 — Perkasa president Datuk Ibrahim Ali suggested today that the Malays are economically disadvantaged against the non-Malays because of certain limitations in Islam.

The outspoken conservative Malay leader, who was speaking today at Perkasa’s annual meet here, cited this as the reason to continue with affirmative action policies, arguing that this was the best way to address this shortcoming of the Malays.

“Gambling, liquor, entertainment outlets ... how could Malays afford, be able to compete?” Ibrahim asked in his address.

He had claimed that millions of ringgit were denied to the Malays since those businesses are prohibited in Islam, while non-Muslim entrepreneurs had benefited a lot from them. MI
