THE Chinese no longer form the majority race in Penang, having been overtaken slightly by the Malay community. Penang was the only Chinese-majority state in Malaysia and the only one with a Chinese leader as Chief Minister.
According to Penang Statistics Department director Wan Mohamad Noor Wan Mahmood there are 18,000 more Malays this year than Chinese in Penang. The population in the state is expected to reach 1.6 million this year, he added.'There are around 650,000 Chinese in Penang, making up about 43 per cent of the total population in 2005. This is expected to drop to 40.9 per cent this year. 'For the Malays, their numbers will increase to over 670,000, up from 41.3 per cent of the total population to 42 per cent,' he said.
Meanwhile, the Evil Zionist BN/Umno Regime of Najib Razak plans to expand the two generation loan payment scheme to help Penang Malays own houses. The long payment period will benefit the Malays. The two generation payment scheme was implemented by some banks on an ad hoc basis and found to be effective. Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Nor Mohamed Yakcop said more affordable houses would be build to meet the needs of the Malays in Penang.
Though such a move by the Federal BN/Umno regime must be applauded but one must read between the lines of the Evil intent of this Diabolical Regime. As it is, many Malays working in Penang actually reside in neighboring Kedah and Perak because they can't afford to buy houses in Penang. The BN/Umno Regime has for long transferred Malay civil servants from other states to Penang with the hope that these Malay civil servants would stay put in Penang and thus increase the Malay population in Penang.
Penang has always been Umno's elusive Holy Grail. Umno though pulling the strings behind it's lap dog Gerakan, always wanted Penang all for itself as Umno sees Penang as a Cash Cow. With the increase of the Malay population in Penang, Umno can now press the case for the delineation of the Electoral Boundaries so that more Malay majority state constituencies are created, hence increasing it chances of ruling Penang without the help of it's coolies MCA, Gerakan and MIC.
What Umno needs now is to get back its 2/3 majority in Parliament thus enabling it to delineate the Penang Electoral Boundary to its advantage. Sources inform The Scribe that racist Ahmad Ismail is favored by Umno to be Penang's first Malay Chief Minister. However this will not happen overnight as a Sabah style Rotation Chief Ministership will be used to hoodwinked the Chinese in Penang as what happened to the Kadazandusuns and Chinese in Sabah where the post of Chief Minister ended up as the 'sole property' of Umno.
It is very important that the voters in Sibu do not deliver another Parliamentary Seat to BN as it will get BN/Umno closer to it's 2/3 majority and it's long awaited takeover of Penang.
