Actually there is no Malay race, says veteran writer

By Joe Fernandez
The Tamils in the peninsula are more Orang Asal than others except the Orang Asli.

Tamil schools in the Federation cannot be questioned because the first civilisation in the peninsula was Kadaram in Kedah which was a trading bridge between India and China.

The Kadaram people, Hindus from India, were the first to settle down in the peninsula after the Orang Asli. Kedah comes from kedai (Tamil for shop). There were many shops in Kadaram.

Some Malay Groups Have 52% Chinese DNA

Dear Editors,

The news reports on the RCI findings have prompted me to do a bit of reading on the "Malays" and I found 2 articles which are very interesting.

One is a recent article called "Pendatang" by Syed Imran former Bernama reporter and the other a scientific study on the genetics of "Malays".

Syed Imran's beef is that "Malaysians" are 97 squatters- so what is the big deal about "pendatangs"?

Unfortunately UMNO and Perkasa think tankers are a bit thicker than others and have not accepted this conclusion (common knowledge for a long time). Or may be they are following the Nazis who dishonestly made up reasons to justify their pogroms against Jews and "sub-human" race.

Bugis bid for Bumi status opens ‘Pandora’s Box’

By Joe Fernandez
The Bugis call in Sabah in recent days for members of the community to be recognised as Bumiputera just as in Peninsular Malaysia has opened a new debate about an old problem, that is, how to extend the Bumiputera (son of the soil) umbrella term to as many Malaysians as possible in Sabah and elsewhere who are not Orang Asal (native).
Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak has been cited by wannabe Bumiputera among the Bugis in Sabah as the most famous member of their community who can still trace his roots to Sulawesi in Indonesia.

Komuniti Orang Asal Sabah gasak Peguam Besar Negeri Sabah fasal NCR

Oleh Gregory Gondua 
KOTA KINABALU: Penduduk Orang Asal di Sabah hari ini meluahkan perasaan marah dengan kenyataan kontroversial yang dibuat oleh Peguam Besar Negeri Sabah, Roderic Fernandez, sekaligus bertindak menggesa agar beliau meletak jawatan.

Seramai hampir 30 orang wakil penduduk daripada semua daerah termasuk dari pantai timur negeri sebulat suara membuat gesaan tersebut dalam satu perjumpaan di Penampang Selasa lalu berikutan kenyataan yang dibuat oleh Fernandez baru-baru ini yang dipetik sebagai berkata bahawa Tanah Hak Adat Orang Asal atau Native Customary Right (NCR) tidak wujud selepas tahun 1930.

Orang Asal Tambanuo jawab Peguam Besar Negeri Sabah fasal NCR

Oleh James Ait (pemimpin Tambanuo dalam STAR)
Seribu enam ratus lima puluh tahun setelah Allah selesai menciptakan dunia ini, Allah telah mendapati bahawa kehidupan manusia pada waktu itu penuh dengan kejahatan. Allah mengambil keputusan untuk menenggalamkan dunia ini dengan banjir besar. Catatan daripapda masyarakat di Timur Tengah, yang tinggal hanyalah keluarga nabi Noh. Cerita yang diwariskan secara turun temurun oleh masyarakat Orang Asal (Tambanuo) di Sabah, yang tinggal hanyalah sepasang suami isteri yang baru kahwin yang hanya dikenali sebagai Laduon (nenek) dan Lakion (datuk). Sepasang suami isteri itulah yang memulakan suatu masyarakat baru Tambanuo selepas banjir besar yang lebih dikenali oleh masyarakat Tambanuo sebagai “losob”.
