Its all about the economy. It was before, its prevailing now and will be crucial in the future. Politics fulfill the democratic culture and practices albeit western style or the Greek style and or the Islamic model. Govt of the people, for the people by the people.
Since the ages, wars fought to dominate countries because of their beliefs and or for the riches and resources. Here political battles are fought to dominate and control the economy ( to protect the economic empire that had been structured and built).
Majority (of the people) already decided whether based on perceptions or social media influences. Executive positions (by the people) will be fulfilled either to lead and bring good with proper skills and knowledge with their professional abilities as against grassroots voices which might stick to the old antigonistic racial based sentiments and practices. Transformation of the way of life and systems will not happen and be successful in a structural form but and unless the human brains are overhauled, cleaned and tranformed. Then only the fruits and benefits (for the people) will be reaped.
Its all about the economy. Political struggle for independence, development (infra and info structure, education), social wellbeing ( medical, social and happiness) , integrity & accountability and transparency are all short term and once achieved will loose its influence and appeal.
And in many countries and cases political processes had been abused to harness wealth by proxy, cronyism and nepotism. To enrich a few and the end justifies the means. (Menghalal kan cara untuk tujuan dan matlamat tertentu - no permanent enemies).
Its all about supply and demand and preparing to satisfy the consideration. Its about turning around consumers to producers. About controlling the supply chain and factors of production (land, technology, human resource (knowledge & skills) and capital. Controlling raw materials, ingredients and procurements. Controlling logistics and the distribution networks and market place ( the borderless world). Controlling the sources of finance and capital for operating and capital expenditures. Its going to be about know how rather than who we know or who knows us.
When and when the majority of the malays dominates the economy and are not only consumers but the same time producers of local & world needs and consumption, their purchasing power will increase, their tithes and charity in abundance and the multiplier effects will definitely determine their success on earth and the hereafter, in sya Allah. And as Muslimin & Muslimat, their purpose of living and dying will be fulfilled and whatever they do is for Allah.
PNB is one strategic initiative through Amanah Saham Bumiputera. A few other initiatives needed to be planned and executed. For the future generation, ADAM can provide one solution. Safety net for Melayu in economy must also be hatched something like Kumpulan Wang Simpanan deducted from profits (can be a form of forced savings and also bail out fund).
A strong economic community can influence politics whilst otherwise might not necessarily be true. Time and time again had proven that because of weak policies, weak implementors and implementation, breach of trust & leakages etc, etc, etc. Wallah hu alam bis shawab.
