.... with our bad education system -bad english, other country would not even want Malaysia's maids

But easily 500,00 Pendatang Tanpa Izin come in to Sabah and many become Malaysian through dubious means ... so we have an increase in population now

"304,358 M'sians Migrated To Other Countries From March 2008 Till Aug 2009"

In another 10 years, we'll see this headline:
"2 million non-English-speaking Bumiputera graduates leave Malaysia to work as domestic maids every year, and this figure is increasing 20% annually"

Malaysians going out , great! UMNO BN will be soo happy.

I wonder if the brainy among the Malays factored the huge economic loss with this escalating brain drian?
The Malays who are happy with this brain drain now, will rue the day in the not too distant future as the 'cake or pie' turns into mud and there is nothing worth fighting for in Malaysia... the billions and billions salted away (abroad) by the corrupt BN/UMNO, mean our ringgit is on a free fall and I can only forsee a very bleak future for a non-competitive, regressive country mired in their little tempurong of race and religion.

If i had that chance to go and migrate somewhere else... No second thought...pack up my stuff and fly.......

Nowadays, a Malaysian passport is a passport to be treated like pariah overseas. More and more countries require for Msian travellers - many countries which did not require visas a few years ago, now have such requirement. The list includes Australia, Canada and soon UK and Eurozone too. Contrasting that, the Singaporeans can roam freely almost anywhere, including the US, without a pre-approved visa. That says a lot, doesn't it?

And the biggest insult - if you get a job overseas, e.g. in the Middle East, Msian passport holders are paid the same rate as Bangladeshis, Indians, Indonesians, Filipinos etc. However, other nationalities like Singaporeans, Australians etc are paid top expat bucks.

So the Malaysian passport is a passport to poverty and it's value is in continual decline.

corpuscavernosa,

Anyone out there needs a gardener...

Kick UMNO/BN out. Not only those migrated will return, they will return together with foreign investment.

"304,358 M'sians Migrated To Other Countries From March 2008 Till Aug 2009"

Those are no money to migrate to oversea, having migrain now like me STUCK in a RACIST country running by a bunch of Hypocrite to champion this and to champion that everyday but at the back siphone out all the RAKYAT Hard-earn money (INCOME TAX) mostly paid by the NON BUMI to other countries to fill their account.

Thanks GOD's who knew who are these evils.

I was told that the promotion in the local universities, particularly the low-class teachers' university in Tanjung Malim, seems to be biased as those who do not publish and supposed to perish, were flourishing instead. I was shocked to hear that a lecturer was given a professorship last year without much publication, and also has not even produced a PhD student. Why? "Genderist" and racist! So, I am not surprised if the bright non-Malay lecturers would leave for greener pasture elsewhere, contributing to the brain drain syndrome in Malaysia.

Need non-bumis to leave so that BN can remain in power.

Keep the bumis as clueless and blind worshippers of UMNO god, so that UMNOputeras can continue to plunder the stupid bumis who pledge loyalty for RM50-100 per vote.

Malaysia shall be high income nation with more bumi graduates. Soon RM100,00 can buy 2 plates of nasi lemak, just like rupiah and peso.

I look forward to the day I can hire 10 bumi domestic maids, 1 bumi chauffeur and 1 bumi garderner, all graduates of UiTM and Mara.

Instead of courting former Malaysians to "come home" what is BN doing to stop Malaysians from FLEEING this corrupt country? Ministries making efforts? Please don't make me laugh!

Malaysians are seeing the country in the state of self-destruction for 52 years since independence. The three branches of government are supposed to be independent, cross-checking each other, are now intertwined with the administrative branch dictating the other two. This results in ever-increasing magnitude of corrupt practices in all government institutions ( anti-corruption agency included ), appointment of pariah and corrupt judges and voting in of government parliamentarians of low level of mentality.
Malaysians are cursed by having the three regimes of government, dating back from Mahathir ( being the axis of all evils ), Badawi ( the ever sleeping bonker ) and Najib ( the infamous womanizer ). All of them have one thing in common – corrupt, arrogant and racist.
I suppose all right-thinking Malaysians, Malays and non-Malays alike, are feeling equally hopeless about the future. We shouldn’t be surprised if the statistics shows the majority of the emigrants in recent years are Malays who are intellect.

At this moment of writing, I am in Australia for a short holidays. Honestly I find that Malaysia is really a nicer place to be in. I really miss M'sia for its food, fruits and friends. People here are rather impersonnal and though will greet you 'Hi mate', I doubt their sincerity.
I hve no choice. My children migrate for their own future and their children. That is their choice.
For me good old Malaysia is still the best. Yes it will be the best provided the government can change its way

Our forefathers came to this land in search of better prospect and also because to escape the treacherous conditions back home then. That time has again presented itself in this country to the bumi-less community and the time has again come that emigration is the top agenda to all the bumi-less in Malaysia.

It is not a wonder why there are so many emigrants in recent months and no thanks to umno/bn's zealous ambition to rob and rape this country at their whims and fancy and by painting the bumi-less as the ''evil asian jews''.

Gomen has been using the ''brain gain'' slogan so much so it is already sounding like a broken record, no one is taking it seriously anymore. Furthermore, umno/bn cannot allow for the brains (mostly built up from teh bumi-less segment of the community) back into the country for the fear of them making the gomen look bad and consequently taking over the helm of this country.

It is the ambition of umno/bn to ensure that the rakyat of Malaysia to remain like the 'katak bawah tempurung' and be lead by the nose rings. With ISA and other means of institutionalised discrimination towards the bumi-less they have one alternative and that is to emigrate to another country as it is no different being in a foreign land as they are already a 2nd and 3rd class citizen in their homeland anyway.

Let us all give umno/bn their wish is ridding this country of the bumi-less, let them play in their own play ground although we all grew up playing in that play ground but we are being told to 'get lost' or 'balik tongsan' as it they claim to owns it now. Let us all continue on in increasing the emigration statistics for the years to come. Let them commit hara-kiri while we go on progressing in another mans land where we can expect a better acceptance to our contributions.

UMNO is least worried if the nons leave the country. Better for them - greater share of the cake!

No, I think you guys have got it all wrong, when the Government(read UMNO) talks about brain drain. What they are saying is that brain drain refers to their own earthprince people who studied overseas and chose to stay overseas. They are not referring to the non-Malays. In fact, they will be most happy if the non-Malays leave and not come back, the more leaving the better.

Take the case of Noordin Top, the Islamist terrorist. UMNO even said that they would have loved to have Top back home for rehabilation. Imagine an out-and-out terrorist killing innocent people and destroying properties for nothing(sorry, for God). But Chin Peng, a non-Malay, was not allowed to return to his roots in Sitiawan, even though UMNO signed a peace treaty allowing them to do so, not even on a social pass.

Yes, it's all about racism and apartheid, and ketuanan.

And MOOyiddin and Sharizat Ali says BTN courses is good and O.K. despite all the condemnations from past attendees. I wonder whether these two have any inkling what BTN courses are all about. And in many cases, only Malays were allowed or asked to attend the courses. That should give the rakyat a big clue.

Half a million migrated in two and a half years? Wow! This is not migrating, this is fleeing! That the vote of confidence in Malaysia. This is also one form of ethnic cleansing - create conditions such that minorities are forced to flee. One would not know the level of racism here in this country unless one travels abroad.

Malays are hospitable, friendly and nice is a lot of bull.... Ask me, I lived with them, puasa with them, studied Islam, makan, tidur with them for 10 years. I have never experienced happiness for a day living in malaysia, until i migrated to UK.

I agree! This is an old outdated (since the 60s) imaginary image of malays. It is simply untrue these days. Herein lies the problem.

If UMNO wants to encourage some of the Malaysians to come back perhaps as a first step they have to recognise dual citizenship and allow all Malaysians who have given up their citizenship to regain their Malaysian passports without imposing application obstacles.

They are taking us for granted. When all Chinese and Indians left. Lets see who's gonna pay the taxes.

Bullshit..they bare coming back...10 mof my friends have already migrated with one leaving this month...bullshit....as long as UMNO/Bn is in power no one is coming back...tis country has been taken back by 50 years........asked my frined why he is leaving after 40 years...he said n confidence in the racist government......some of us stay back becoz not that we love malaysia nut no choice......so stop this bullshit kohilan

Aria is spot on. my two children studied abroad. no, they not denied scholarships or places in local universities - i made the financial sacrifice voluntarily. so i fully understand and feel the pain of parents today who feel denied unreasonably. my sons now live and work abroad and have raised families. they have, now and then, job opportunities to return but have absolutely no desire to do so, knowing full well there are no prospects for career advancement, no job satisfaction (how to if answering to bosses with level of competence below even their subordinates), and very little professional respect.
what have we as parents and loyal (and permanent) citizens done about this matter? we say if you get tons more money, take it -- but don't plan long term. it pains, but we say go where the future's bright, go where you are recognised and rewarded for your abilities and skills, where you fight to prove yourself. we say don't be concerned about us two oldies, we will live out our days here - and end our line here with us (after all, aren't we pendatangs?) but there's a whole wide future out there for them.
and to Oscar Winner, sure let in that 6 million or whatever Indon, Pakistan, Iran, Bangladash, Philiphines and make them new bumi/umnoputras. then what? millions of obedient supporters? hey, who has taken over those roadside businesses in kl run by our own ahmads? west germany and then others in western europe saw the same threat of immigrants causing linguistic, cultural, religious, educational, health, housing etc problems. that a solution for our brain drain? how about present day britain where that children's song Old MacDonald cannot be sung in some pre-schools anymore (cos that "oink oink" is offensive!) and in a predominantly christian country with predominantly christian traditions and customs centuries old the Cross cannot be displayed in state run schools (yes offensive). and yet some people (not even born in britain) demand, as their right, to wear clothing according to their religion!!! to take the cake, the british court has blocked repatriation of religious extremist illegals because their human rights are endangered at home ie they are so dangerous to society even their own home countries might just hang them!
ok, none of this is to suggest that any one of the proposed millions are dangerous extremists, or that the govt will willfully admit such people. just that nations, and people in charge, must think and plan well ahead; industrial west germany of the 60's was just blinded by the post-war economic boom and the cheap pakistani labour offered.
looks like we are blindly following that road, with a difference: germany didnt lose its brains in gaining that manpower.

From those comments below save as reminder.... if UMNO still rules ....for another 5 years... the country will be doom to death.... or inflames.... And the KERISMUDIN....is talking rubbish.... about those whom have left the country is coming back apply for the citizenship is full of lies.... matter in fact ...most whom have left for greener pastures overseas countries like australia, New Zealand, Canada or Us... will not returned anymore.... they don't own their oath to this country anymore! As long UMNO rules....! [As for illegals indons, banglaesh, nepalese, pakis, and filiplino must be sent back to their respective countries.... we have to change the government! /b]

Those racist UMNO do not view migration as “BRAIN DRAIN” or as something negative, they view it as a positive event “TROUBLE DRAIN”. All this talk about “BRAIN GAIN” program is just plain window dressing, just another program to empty the nation’s coffer. Stop this unnecessary drainage and it’s an automatic gain.

Most Malaysian migrates because they are unhappy with the situation of the country and do not foresee any future in it. This whole situation can vastly be credited to the mismanagement of our government for the past 50 years.

All this loses are incalculable to our beloved nation but to those pervert “BRAIN DEAD” unscrupulous politicians in UMNO, it’s a positive development.

SORRY stupid BN government! For what the shit "excuse" for them to run away from this beloved country Malaysia, the ACTUAL REASON is actually because of BN IS CRUEL, CORRUPTED AND NOT MANAGING THIS COUNTRY WELL ENOUGH! Collect tax system one of the best in the world but corruption racing to become number one in the world!

Inila kebodohan Orang Melayu yang membertahankan Negara dengan kelembapan minda dan ahklak. Di pergunakan oleh UMNO dimana orang Nya sendiri dan dihancurkan oleh orang Nya sendiri. Walau sudah sampai di generasi baru tetapi masih ada majoriti yang berfikiran bahawa dunia ini hanya untuk satu bangsa Melayu yang ketingalan zaman......."HIDUP MELAYU" hanya satu laugan orang orang UMNO yang memeinta keprihatinan dari Melayu bodoh di tepi jalanan ke kampung... Lihatla dimana dia orang hari ini dan dimana dir mu hari ini...

tak lama lagi apa yg tggl hanyalah pendatang pendatang yg mereka jemput
itulah yg diperlukan oleh ameno utk terus memerintah
dan bermaharaja lela bersamam sama raja rajanya,
raja yg takade akai...

Don't get depressed Malaysian...many who have been overseas for 12-20 years and have set up are coming back (balik kampung)to give this Regim Ganas kejam RACIST UMNO-BN a lesson. We do little Mat Kilau, disrupt disrupt and the mood is OBLITERATE them or Rot in Jail. The sooner we Rid Malaysia of this Regim Kejam UMNO-BN and all their Death, Lies the better it is for Malaysia....Time is short.

Too much opportunity is wasted by RUBBISH UMNO-BN...they leaders and ex leaders, judges, IGP, Police, some Sultan need to be charged and sent to Jail...that is the mood of people who have left but dare not say anything!! We who come back will create the hunger that angers the people.....Malaysia will never be the same again!!.......it is going down the drain and we will make sure these UMNO-BN scums, judges & crony, PariahDRM, MACC goes down together!!

great thinking, NSTPravda! how about a real BIG share of ZERO? and to those brain-dead ministerial types who want to brain-gain back malaysians, get real. get a life. don't waste taxpayers' money. when the hoodlum, racist politicians arrogantly say "leave if you don't like it" when rational, loyal and concerned citizens voice concerns about discrimination, lack of opportunities, blatant bullying etc you think any youth forced at great financial sacrifice to his family and relatives, or to accept a foreign scholarship, to get an education abroad - because of that stupid quota and nep ketuanan rubbish which disregards his straight A results - will want to come back? for what?
NSTpravda and all you airheads, the whole world is connected and competitive. being able to walk is not enough when the likes of our neighbourhood giants are hurtling forward - even JAPAN is in real danger of being left behind. so, when you have all that PKFTZ, CIMB etc (not to mention those billions the present govt has/will spend - no details given even to parliament how - to lift the economy from the current recession) who much more are you going to share, 0x2?

As far as I'm concern, the present caliber of Ministers running the country at best are Senior Exec if working in the private sector. They are not event Senior Management level. They are there because of not what they know but who they know...... Our government is a JOKE !!!!! Given the opportunity, to migrate is the best option.

Good riddance to bad rubish! With our Allah given NEP, less people means more to share... UMNO Akhbar!!! Dollar Akhbar!!! $emua-nya OK!

The main reason why Chinese and Indian parents are encouraging their children to leave Malaysia is because of racism. You don’t see Malays Migrating to Australia, UK, USA etc (only the corrupt super rich). Why? Just Ask yourself why?

This reason is racism. The mothers and fathers would not be asking their children to stay away from Malaysia because life is harder in Malaysia. It is because parents (Chinese and Indian) don’t see a future for their children or their grandchildren here. Why? Ask yourself why?

Lets talk about education – It is so stressful on a child and on their parents until hopefully their child reaches university. This is because our government is trying their best to suppress the Chinese and Indian children from getting a good education. Parents have to save hard for the children’s education overseas. Low level of education for a poor Indian and Chinese person would mean they cannot find a job. As it is today only the top 10% of the best brains from the Indian and Chinese community make it into local university. The government is trying their best to push that t0% percentage down to zero. Do the next generation of Indian and Chinese have any chance for a good education? Would a parent want their child to go through what they have done through?

Lets talk about jobs – The government sector is for the Malays and the private sector has quotas to ensure the Malays also get their fair share. The Indian and Chinese people must fight for the remaining positions in the private sector. When the private sector has got to many Chinese and Indian executives the government makes noise. When the government sector has many Malay executives nobody can say anything.

Let’s talk about our government – The BN government is completely corrupt and is sucking the country dry. There is no rule of law or police to take care of the people, unless you are connected to the government.
Parents are not blind. Everyone in Malaysia must live in harmony and not trying to suppress one another. The ‘Ketuanan Melayu’ is supposed to help Malays and not to suppress the others. When I talk about Malays I do not mean all Malays because I have some very nice Malay friends. Those Malays who are supporting the Government better realise they are destroying the country and eventually themselves. The only reason why some Indian and Chinese are still supporting BN is because they are silly (low education). One of the reasons why BN is still in power today is because of Indian and Chinese voters.

come on, if the chinese and indians have the money, they will leave tanah melayus to live in a better country. What is the future for chinese and indians in a shit country like malaysia? I came to UK with £50
in my pockets and now I am more than a £ millionaire, and all my kids are in private schools, preparing for oxbridge/ harvard.Malays are hospitable , friendly and nice is a lot of bull.... Ask me, I lived with them, puasa with them, studied Islam, makan, tidur with them for 10 years. I have never experienced happiness for a day living in malaysia , until i migrated to UK. No discrimination, i can buy houses( already have many!)
children can get into oxbridge, hoping for a son to be the first chinese MP in UK. No annoying azan calls to disturb your sleep, no interuption of TV programme half way by annoying allahhuakbar.....Tanah melayu is for melayus only. Chinese and Indians must get out before it is too late. My malaysian passport

Malaysia could be a great, harmonious country if the course set by the founding fathers, Tengku, Tun Tan Siew Sin and Tun Sambanthan had been followed, instead of being hijacked by the devil incarnate, Mahatahi, and all the UMNO PMs who followed.

Through corruption and outright embezzlement on an unprecedented scale, the destruction of the Judiciary and democratic institutions and abuse of all arms of government to stay in power, UMNO has diminished Malaysia beyond recognition. Needless to say, economically and comparing standards of good governance, it has fallen behind Singapore, Thailand, Korea and, very soon, Indonesia.

UMNO has made Malaysia a less safe, less viable and less attractive place to live, whether you are Malay or non-Malay. Of course, the non-Malays have more reason to emigrate but don't the Malays (and the non-Malays unable to emigrate which is the majority) also deserve a better country?

Now Najis is talking about introducing a GST. As is evident in countries with a GST (which, incidentally, are expensive countries to live in), the costs of living just shot up inexorably with the introduction of GST and the GST rate creeps up ever so insidiously over the years. The GST is one thing that goes up but never comes down. The hardest hit would be the bulk of the population who are already suffering under a Barang Naik government. Najis' notion of a "high income" country would in reality mean a high cost country!

It looks like the Najis regime has no idea on how to turn the country around or is unwilling to. Foreign investments are at an all time low. The massive corruption already exposed and quickly covered up ran into the billions and this looked the tip of the iceberg with the revelation of the Sarawak misappropriation of government funds coming on the heels of PKFZ and the Auditor General's report on systemic corruption throughout the civil service.

With the coffers ransacked and oil running out, where does Malaysia's salvation lie? I have no idea. If I were a Malay I too would look for a greener pasture. Don't give me this bull about patriotism. How patriotic are the UMNO politicians who squandered the country's riches?

304,358 migrated, but UMNO won't give a damn. All the brain-gain talk is bullshit. There is no sincerity, just lies to please the non-malay voters. 3,043,580 migrate tomorrow, UMNO still won't give a damn. They can invite 6mil more from Indon, Pakistan, Iran, Bangladash, Philiphines, etc. These "new Malays" will be turned into voters, while their future generations will be kept dumb and go thru BTN course. All will be systematically turned into UMNO supporters who will vote and keep UMNO in power forever.... sounds familiar?? Actually it already started since racist TDM was PM

People come, people go...good old Malaya, bad new Malaysia? Sad and heart-wrecking to hear those concerned speak...many Malaysians love Malaysia but cannot stay...Evil Mahathir made it happened..he killed the united potential of Malaysia!

Mahathir has a 200 acre ranch in England. thats ok...Muhammad taib has a bag of money that walked to Australia. Dolah aka adahari..has a bungarlow facing the sea...down south..one time the MCA goons had two citizenship..Samy has hectares of land in India...and...it goes on SUCKERS...every UMoooooNo has a nest with a ready female cow waiting....while the poor local kampung Malays kow-tow..lick and kiss their leaders ass for some favor.....and Mohd Lingam of correct correct correct has arranged all the pass ports for another trip for our judges....one way...
Well to all Malays down in Malaysia...RIBUAN TERIMA KASIH KERANA MENYOKONG KAMI KE NEGARA LAIN...tanah tumpah darah ku...podah........

OK, agreed those are some favourite reasons cited in migration. Only a fool would want to stay if given a chance to migrate to Ozland, NZ, Canada or UK. Moving to such countries not only gives you the opportunity to be your best, give the best to your family members and best of all you have the best of everything you chose from career, recreation, safety net, be fully accepted as part of the host country in its continuous evolvement for better things, all their educational or professional standards are accepted by each other nation, no more moronic news to be pissed off by idiot leaders every time in MSM etc. You can scream at the minister & you get a reply as to what is going on. In Msia, its the behind the bars & die in custody. Yeah, even a drain sweeper here have a better quality/standard of living than a professional in Msia. Guess what, in Msia we even rob our kids a childhood by making them study from 8am till midnight. That isthe kids life !!!!??? Its the best gift my children gave me by sponsoring me to be with them and whenever I come to Msia to relax, my money is worth at least 3 TIMES. Now what does that tell one, 3 times the worth -- Msia is heading towards the Zimbaweee way. Also, which orang kaya in Msia don't have a stash of their money kept overseas, even the stupid MB of Negri Sembilan tries to stash $10 million in London. Oh, yes when I am sick, I get the best medical but in Msia, you don't have money be prepared to DIE miserably. For those who cite we are "cowards", I salute your voices & lending verbal via the blogs as this is the only way to support snail pace changes if ever happens. You will be DEAD before Msia come any closer(if ever) to what I am enjoying as an ordinary citizen in Ozland unless you have money. Lately my malay Professional friend tells me he is leaving Msia to open mamak shop in Sydney. I told him, he must be kidding but its the truth as he showed me his landed papers. He is tired off the ills committed by Msian patriotic leaders. Yup, he is an UMNO member but too clean. Go figure.

To a supplementary question from Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad (PAS-Kuala Selangor), Kohilan said the Science, Technology and Innovations and Human Resources ministries were making efforts to get Malaysians abroad to come home among others through a “brain gain” programme.

Put everything on the table and see if any of them can answer these question and compete:

1) Education for the children - non-Malay has to compete to get into public universities and usually no luck. If they were able too they were given second class courses. Also, chances to get scholarship is basically none. End up have to send them overseas and work two jobs or both parents have to work hard all their lives.

2) Daily expenses such as groceries is not comparable to the pay because it cost too much. Not sure where the subsidies go too but probably someone got all the subsidy but not rakyat. Local grown produce cost as much which no one can explain but blame it on the expensive stuff for the animal and vegetable

3) Safety and security - Why would someone change from a place where you don't have to worry about security. For example, no worries about break in if you parked your car outside the house, walk around in your handbag and jewelry, don't need to put iron grill on all your windows, and police response to your call and assure you they will work on your case. Our PDRM is keen on putting down a peaceful minority law makers which our country call oppositions.

4) Choice of PM is basically flaw because we have an allege criminal for a Perdana Menteri. This will never happen in a civilize country.

There are a long list of items I can think of why I should go home as a non-Malay.

What's that figure again?...304 358,go buy ToTo,you might just get lucky and hit the jackpot.. and be the next Malaysian on the migration list... Better bet then to be on the ' pendatang list '.....

300 thousand less to vote against the thieves, liars and murderers...

I remember I did a poster on this 3 years ago, oh there it is!
Still relevant, unlike MCA.

The Malaysia Consulate in New York has its website informing those Malaysians who want to surrender their Malaysian passports to c***k on this icon, with Q & A and all information relating to surrender of citizenship. .

Giving such prominence in this website implies that the Malaysian government is encouraging Malaysians in USA to give their citizenship. Talk about stamping 'brain drain' by willfully facilitating the surrendering of Malaysian passports?

This sorry state of affairs will continue as long as Mahathirism and UMNO hold sway.

There has to be a 'creative destruction' in the whole system of governance if we want to join the civilised league of democratic nations. This will not be in the interest of the criminal Mafia which is running our country but the Rakyat have to take the bull by the horns.

The Merdeka constitution is no longer tenable and is part of the problem. Any vestige of privilege and supremacy or what might be interpreted as such has to be abrogated.

The colonial invention of the institution of Royalty in Malaysia will also have to be reconsidered as it serves no useful purpose and is an unnecessary and wasteful extravagance. Of late they have ventured into the political sphere and have undermined the democratic process. Their intended role of 'check and balance' has been corrupted into one of an Executive lackey thus negating their raison d'etre.

The Pakatan in its present form is nothing but a sham. It is a marriage of convenience purely for the sake of power. Ideally they should merge and form an opposition party with a unity of purpose and ideology.

The obsession with outward Islamic superficialities and not the substance, which is essentially about Justice, will have to be jettisoned by the Malays who have been 'diperbodohkan' by UMNO, Anwar and PAS.

Only when Malays realise that Secularism is the guardian of Islamic purity and dignity, will there be a commensurate improvement in the moral fabric of Muslim society in Malaysia. Currently Malays are 'terpukau' by Arabism with its Islamic theatrics and choreography, to realise that they are in the moral cesspit.

If all the "Pendatang" were to leave tomorrow, Malaysia will be Papua New Guinea. Or at best, Sri Lanka.

And the cave-dwellers are still claiming ketuanan this, ketuanan that. My chinese friends said, "mmm-cai-si". Still don't know how to die.

hmmm...read this

http://thestar.com.my/columnists/story.asp?file=/2008/2/23/columnists/insightdownsouth/20418042&sec=Insight Down South

what say you? any comments?

In spite of UMNO's claim that NEP benefits Malays, capable decent Malays are also migrating. Many Malays who go for their studies overseas are not returning to Malaysia. Malays from Singapore are not migrating to Malaysia, in spite of UMNO potraying them as being discriminated and miserable. Who is heading for Malaysia? Criminals and terrorists from Indonesia (such as Khir Toyol's relatives), Phillipines, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, etc. The country is becoming inhospitable for all decent Malaysians regardless of race and religion .

Yes those that pay 80% of Malaysia's taxes are migrating off! and paying taxes to other govts!
They are replaced by non tax paying "New Malays" from Indian , Banga, Paki , Sulu and Indon!
Soon the Govt will not have any revenue for the NEP or to run the country.
Welcome to the New Malaysia!!!

You, who migrated and gave all kinds of excuses. Don't talk shit here, if you feel running away is better than sticking your guns here and fight then you have no bloody reasons to comment anything about what's happening in Malaysia. As far as I'm concerned 'cowards' have no place among the braves here. Frankly speaking, those who migrated and got citizenship from their adopted nations are 'foreigners', aliens. I have respect more on those poor souls who braved water canons and wooden batons to fight for better government. You'd just thought of your own skins and kins! F***ks all the big words!

Soon all bright, capable and decent Malaysians (Chinese, Indians, East Malaysians and even Malays) would have left the country. UMNO will be delighted with this result and will continue its fundmentalist ultra-Islamic agenda and rev up its "no-brain gain" plan by bringing in millions of Muslim Indonesians, Filipinos, Bangladeshis, etc. to turn this nation into another failed Islamic state. What was started by the evil corrupt racist criminal Mahathir would have finally materalized - the end of multi-racial Malaysia Truly Asia and the birth of Malayistan, another failed Islamic state in turmoil . Pity the decent Malaysians (Chinese, Indians, Malays, etc.) who can't migrate - we may see a mass exodus of these people to Thailand, China, India and even Indonesia.

What difference is Malaysia from Apartheid? Apartheid is a legal race segregation. In Malaysia, the races are segregated thru religion, Quota, NEP, Ketuanan Melayu, BTN propganda of hate and now beer and cow head is also coming in the equation. So how can we say Malaysia is getting better in race relation and also give advice to other nation on race relation like the sleepy head PM Badawi did and now Najib as well.
They are embarrasing the nation. Just admit we are no different from Apartheid, KKK White Supremacy amd Dictatorship all rolled into one nation and country.

I think our government forgot to add another reason for the migration. i.e 'to avoid second trial on wrongfully acquitted from a murder case' as in the example of Razak Baginda

GOOD RIDDENCE. STAY OUT ! DON'T COME BACK.

Some malaysians may have migrated to other contries for the various reasons mentioned above. What about razakB & family + the children of umnoputras? Thats right, they do it so that they can live like kings without the kacau factor!

Lets not kid ourselves. The percentage of non bumi wanting to leave Malaysia and live elsewhere would be close to 80%. The rest of the 20% are trying to milk as much as possible so that thier kids can migrate out of Malaysia.
Malaysia is a country that discriminate the non bumi so what do you expect? Malaysia you got deep deep shit problem.
My adopted country treat me first class but the people may not. Australians we are many but we are one. I am not classified as an asian to the goverment but a person

I am so damn proud when I hear this song.

More pendatangs and enemies of the state( Non Malays) must get out of the country. UMNO says non Malays are not welcome to stay. They have sent a strong message pertaining to this issue. so please get out if you can

i think the figure is more than that. my cousin who just recently got his Sing passport told me when he went to the malaysian embassy to give up his malaysian passport, he was told to wait for 6 months to have his passport revoked/taken back? Whatever for?? I thought the govt was glad to see the back of us pendatangs??

Haha.....
This is the secret agenda of the BN government ruled by ARNO and they are very sucessful which led to many Malaysians esp the non-Malays moving out of this country. Why I said that ? They introduced certain bias policies which made the non-Malays like 4th or 5th class citizens though they are legitimately 1st class citizen. The rationale is simple. They know in 10 to 15 years time or less, the natural resources of this great country Malaysia will be exhausted and they know that, for this country to survive in this borderless world, she needs foreign currency coming into this country and this is why they expect those Malaysians overseas which some how or what remit the money back to Malaysia as we cant deny, those Malaysians working or residing oversea somehow or what still have relativies back home here and occasionally they will come back home and he/she still need ringgit to use here. Cant you see some non-Malays using cash money to buy property in Malaysia instead of appying loan ?
The hidden policies also played an effective way which one way or the other stimulate the non-Malays to stand on their own foot which make them very independent as they know they cant count on BN government's help. It is also blessing in disguise that whatever they earn oversea is double or triple value than what he/she earn locally here.
If one looks from another angle, the non-Malays should say big Terima kasih to this BN government which introduced bias policies on non-Malays and this indirectly make them more smarter, more independent and become more richer as the money they earned is double or triple than ringgit.
One is not surprised at all, not only non-Malays emigrated but also quite a number of SMART Malays emigrated to oversea which promise them a better future and a better income.

Why not give a breakdown in percentage on the number of Malaysians that have migrated by race? Why consider them Malaysians when some of them are considered 'pendatangs' in the Country they are born in?

Also from which catergory of income groups that choose to leave should also be considerd.There are some who have the resources. If anyone leaves in search of greener pastures, then it's in their own right.

However when those who preach patrotism and yet still leave the country or even send their family members and children to another country,they ought to be shot..!!

By going in search for Malaysians abroad in need of their expertise,would just be a proclaimation of this country's education and workforce being not apt enough.While the opportunities for higher education and opportunities to hold better/bigger positions or even to be employed is not done by merits,instead done by quota,then are you now saying that there is less intellectuals and posses no expertise??

What do you expect when agendas such as these put forward are handled by the less experts and less intellects.

Why go abroad when there are many Malaysians available but side-lined? And instead of destroying the education for young Malaysians,why not start now to improve and make intelligent children for our future.

You can start by implementing schools just for academics,schools just for arts/drama,schools just for sports and the list goes on.A child needs just basic education/history/knowledge and the step towards the career he or she shows interest in..

You can start by being human to do the right thing for any child......!!!!

If more people can afford the figure would have been higher !

What they are NOT telling you is that the majority of this 300K citizens that left the country in the last 1 year are Malays.

Here are some high profile examples of "brain drain", though not necessarily a case of migration and renouncing of Malaysian citizenship:
Najib's kids are working in the UK. One is studying in the US.
Kadir Jasin, the mouthpiece of Mahafiraun's NST, has at least one kid who has moved to Europe (Switzerland, if I'm not mistaken).
Rusdi Mustafa, Pasquale of Barking Magpie blog...a Najib toady...has a daughter who migrated to Canada.

Many, many more educated and able Malays are leaving by the droves because they are usually the first victims of UMNO's brand of Islamofascism. When given the opportunity, they will relinquish their Malaysian passport after a stint as PR in these other countries.

At the end, all you will have left are telor ayam Melayus like Muhiyiddin...and the fact that he is DPM speaks volumes for how dumbed down the country has become. The country is imploding. I give Malaysia another 10 years maximum.....before it disintegrates.

I left Bolehland 24 years ago with a shirt on my back. Today my two kids will be graduating, one with a Bio Medical Engineering Degree another a Degree in Applied Chemistry. As for me, I now live in a big house and I'm only 54 years old. This country called OZland provided me with virtually free medicals and my kids with first class English education. If i ever go back to Bolehland I'll be more tnan a Malaysian millionaire. All who come to the OZland are now worth a few million ringgit. Had I stayed back in Bolehland I 'll be eating kangkong everyday. Many of our kids have shone through in their various fields of expertise. We now call OZland home and proud of it. We do not have to put up with Ketuanan Melayu. We are all equals i n OZland, black , yellow or white and we enjoy equal opportunities . OZland is many times more multicutural compared to Bolehland and we all live in peace.

Hey guys, it is not just the rich or smart that are migrating.....

BUT the members of UKMO regime are already planning their second home..

Just like the double muhaamad... etc

first suck all the taxpayers money in the Malazutland, put them in overseas bank, billions even 7 generations cannot finish... THEN when this country is in ruins... people chopping each others head, the UMNO leaders and family will be flying out of the country in helicopters, jets etc... and will be confortably living in mansions in australia, america, europe...

while the 2nd class umno leaders becomes sultans in malaysia enslaving the rest of the stupid people.... NOW what u think??

i don't think it is just the non-malays that have migrated. i remember reading an article when jibby was made PM, it was an interview with his son and daughter and they both work in London. yeah, London, United Kingdom. i wonder why? too posh to live in KL?

It is not that they are scare of being deprive from the power continuity. It is about building an empire to sustain Greeds and Coexistence.
I have a nephew who does not speak or study English at all. Now he is abroad for the last 2 years. He could now speak and write English [Good English]. This is nothing special but determine to explore outside the country. Malaysia is a Bloody Rich country but the Governing Gormen leaders are all Half Past Six after TDM took over. How do you expect a Medical Doctor who will only want to prosper his ambition during his younger days if he become a Doctor. I don't think he has the hearth to even help a poor family. If he does he would have had his cabinet to roll out the concept to enrich the poor Malaysian.
Perhaps DSAI would one day proof to him that we could help Malaysian succeed in their livelihood.
Why can't we import teachers for higher education in Malaysia if the Gormen is honest to help the Malaysian.
Come the GE13 Malaysian must not support BN and kick the UMNO in totality.....Hidup PRM....

this figure is small, should have been higher......they will be issuing more ICs to the Indons and Filipinos in Sabah & Sarawak to vote for them every 5 years, then PR will be in trouble.

just look at the huge family the umno malay have, many have 4 wifes....while the poor malays can only afford to have a small family so does the chine and indian families now.

it is high time PR goes deep into the kampungs and jungle if they have to, to convince the rural folks and gain their precious votes. if not PR will not have a slightest chance of ruling this country.

brain drain...no i dont think so,,they can still get ample supply from neighbouring country...just issue identity card only...look at sabah and sarawak!!

' Brain gain' or will it be ' Brain dead ' due to trauma when you return to be faced with the ridiculous issues like speak no English accept for the 'apa nama' butchered Bahasa Melayu/Malaysia...

Racists Malays are clapping their hands in glee. Let all of them leave. We will finally have all of Malaysia to ourselves. Remember LKY's prediction?

“Among the factors for their migration were because of education, brighter career or business prospects.

Now the questions here is why the gov didn't attend to this matters seriously as you acknowledge the reasons for migrating and brain drain to our country. Why can't built more universities instead of spending on unnesessary and lavishly for the wrong reasons. Is the gov scared that the normal layman if become clever, it will be a threat to all the ministers childrens' so that they can hold on to power forever. What is the racial breakdown for people migrate because of educations? Will our minister, please kindly answer these questions?

But don't forget the '3.04538 millions' who left in the 22 years of Mahathir rule.

And maybe we will see 304,538 Malaysians coming back home to help reconstruct our society after the next General Election. Maybe I am an optimist swimming in a sea of pessimism, but we must give it a real good try in the next GE.

Besides the factors mention in the above article as the reasons for Malaysians migrating,the one thing more that is a factor and a fact is that Malaysia is detoriating in it's nature to be governed fairly..

And the fact that the Education policies demoralises the young generation and the sheer negligence on the Governments part to understand that a child's only one right before having the right to vote would be to enjoy his/her school days and not be deprive the opportunity to develop,to be knowlegeable to pursue their ambition in a language and programme context that is most comfortable and apt for the current modern world.

The fact that there are still countries that maintain their history,their green nature,their heritage and of course there are still countries who don't insult or forbids someone forspeaking the English Language..

I am and always will be possesive about being Malaysian,my daughter has generations that began living in this country since the 1860's as how we know through family records,but would never know if it was from even earlier. But I will be one more on a migration list if the Malaysian Government continues to impress upon the non-malays that we are nothing more than immigrants.

As for the need to make efforts to bring home Malaysians from abroad through a 'brain gain' programme,why is it only when Malaysians have left and pursued their education,career and family through the well organised foundations built by another Country's admimistrations and expertise,do the Malaysian Government now think to make them come home.Did you not before send them away by the rule of qouta and the fact that the race/religion is of priority and not by merit does someone deserve an opportunity in anything?????

Dear Mr Pillay,

You can shove the "Brain Gain" program up Jibby's arse!

We are happy working in other countries that did not tax aka, rob its' people.

We are happy to work in other countries that do not understand the meaning of "ketuanan" and are color and race blind.

We are happy working in other countries in which its' leaders do not enriched themselves and their cronies.

We are happy working in other countries in which the leaders took care of the basic amenities for all the people.

So, again. . ., shove that "Brain Gain" program up Jibby's arse!

The brain gain program is all about for every Malaysian who emigrates, the vacancy will be topped up by two illegal immigrants from Indonesia. There is a net gain 1 .
By the way, my application for an Australian PR is in process and no regret ever since.
The UMNO warlords stay put in Malaysia, but their money are parked overseas.

In one year 300K Malaysian left the country for good.
If each ex-Malaysian takes out RM10K, what would be the annual leakage per year.
So not only are we leaking financial capital but also losing human-skill-knowledge capital.

Since the 1970s, this issue has always been raised in Parliament by uncle lim and his cohort and the reply is ALWAYS dismissive (you tak-suka keluar ....etc).

Now you know why, I am of the firm opinion that Malaysia is heading southwards.

HOWEVER, despite the warnings of experts, the "tipping point[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tipping_Point/url]" was never quite reached. Perhaps oil/Petronas was the prop holding up the diseased body? However with the peak-oil[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_oil/url] particularly in Malaysia, perhaps some one can study when would be the next "tipping-point".

For context, read idi-amin and the asians in Uganda [url] here[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_oil/url].

SORRY that ex health ministry staff told him in PERTH,AUSTRALIA not in Ipoh

This is the politics of UMNO divide and rule

lIKE CHUA Jui Meng said in a PKR forum in Ipoh. one of his health ministry told him
in IPOH
I LOVE MY COUNTRY MALAYSIA BUT MY COUNTRY DOES NOT LOVE ME

Well, I'm not surprise at all with the figure. I expected more or all. Everyone except for those corrupted BN crooks would stay behind and continue with their corrupted practices by sucking dry our hard earned money. Honestly, i'm short of a few ringgit only. Once i've saved enough, i'll get a ticket and fly myself out of this hopeless country and never to return unless BN collapse and are replaced by a more respectable government!

I am 66 years old and cry for malaysia bcos they have a bunch of morons for leaders. They shoot themselves in the foot by denying before they even know what they are talking about. We are being led by a bunch of fools who are like parrots and follow the leader.The dpm says those who renounce citzenship will not get it back. Look open your eyes and then moooooooo.... If the figure giving in parliament for migration in the last 18 months is 304,358 than its like 17,000 leave this country every month. Whats going to be left. Only old and elderly, but mamak did once say that the non-malays can go and its now happening. Has the PM sat down and rationally thought why why why are people leaving in such big numbers. Has he even tried to curb corruption. Looks like we are all headed for the drain and all these leaders from MCA, MIC Gerakan etc will leave even faster when there is nothing left to steal.

I wonder whether the figure is inclusive of our beloved RPK & Marina?

My sister is a inventor. She invented the Light-emitting diode with plastic reflector cup. She is a materials engineer. Degree from Monash University, Australia, Masters from Nanyang Polytechnic and PHD fron University of Canberra. Guess what! she couldn't secure a job with Petronas and now heading a patent department in Canberra - shortlisted as army major in Melbourne but declined. Now government paying for her studies in law.

RPK is now in Australia plus all the 'Good and Intelligent Brain' except me, the unwanted Old Brain, and sooner or later, what's left will be the 'Criminal Brain' like Rosmah and Najib and the gang! And our county will be 'Criminal Country' like Philippine!

_________________

More will migrate soon, not because they dont love the country but UMNO policies make it very difficult for nonmalays to ever survive, yes the ones with money wouild provbably stay but the rest of the 90% are not as fortunate annd will leave.

Funny how malays cant survive outside malaysia...indians, chinese even south east asian countyries have found good inroads overseas, can u blame them? who would want to leave a country that spoonfeeds them for everythi ng at the expense of others?,

I'm in the midst of applying for my PR in another country. Wanna know the reason why i am leaving?

Its simply because of a brighter future for my kids and at least even if i am a second class citizen, i am being treated like a human being and be given equal rights.

In addition, at least the government is being runned by human beings rather than like in malaysia, a bunch of retarded criminals.

before you call me a traitor, i love malaysia and i love my country. for years, i have been trying to get into public service and loses out to those 'kaki minum teh'.

i now work in the public service, despite being a pendatang, not discriminated against bcos of the colour of my skin or that i am not a DKK.

the malaysian govt talks about 'brain gain' program, i have yet to have anybody approached me about returning home to serve my nation, no idea what it's all about...
as usual NATO - no action talk only - Malaysia Tak Boleh!

The Fed Govt and beureau are one of the most childish and immature you will ever see. Look at the statement by PDRM and MACC when it was annouce that the interogation time end at 5.30pm. As if they did a lot a crime solving when they interogate past midnight. All I see is fabrication and political gains. And recently the DPM says those who renounce the citizen ship will not be able to get them back. ?????WTF is he talking abt. Ppl are fed up with the Govt. Look at Perak's case during the GE12. It is a ageing society there where the young are all moving out of the state or country and yet the DPM is still the arrogant and epitome of BN being childish and arrogant.

THE BN GOONS HAVE NOT LEARN!!!

This must be a world record for a country not under the threat of warfare.
More Malaysians fleeing their country than afghans.
Soon, UMNO will acheive their ambitions of having nobody to lord over.
The fabric of our society will be destroyed.'Imagine eating nasi lemak for breakfast every blooming day.

I moved 5 yrs ago .....best decision i ever made.....great opportunities .....i love malaysia though ....just think the ruling gov is as bad as the rwandan gov during the genocide.......
