    No.

    “Household income/poverty index” has nothing (directly) to do with this.

    You skipped over the WHY is it purely in race?

    Bumi programs were created to address racial inequity.

    So, it seems both OP and you don’t understand its purpose.

    And like I said, I don’t know if it’s still needed, based on what little I’ve read so far.

      Emmm…yes, that’s what i said.

      You skipped over the WHY is it purely in race?

      Protectionism.

      Bumi programs were created to address racial inequity.

      How many year had we have this quota stuff and how well it address the “inequity”? What sort of “inequity” they’re addressing when they only benefit the biggest racial group alongside with indigenous people? From what i see it only serve to worsen the issue.

      So, it seems both OP and you don’t understand its purpose.

      I’m the OP. Tell me the purpose.

      60 years on, if you still tell me we need a race based equity program, I would say the original program has failed and it’s time to move on to a more inclusive program.
