馬哈迪繼續炮轟馬來族群：緬甸外勞都比馬來人誠實！
馬哈迪認為馬來人無法堅持誠信，貪圖利益；已經無可救藥。
（吉隆坡14日訊）前首相敦馬哈迪日前批評馬來人懶惰引起社會人士的抨擊，惟敢怒敢言的他並沒有因此而收口，他現在還指在不同種族的員工中，緬甸人都比馬來人信得過。
他批評馬來人是不誠實的民族，他以本身經營的麵包店為例子，指在馬來人、華人、緬甸或其他種族的員工當中，馬來人可以為了錢而忘了誠信。
「馬來人見錢開眼，不放過占為己有的機會。我開除過很多馬來員工，都是因為這種性格，華人不會這樣。」
他舉例，有一名經理唆使下屬一起欺騙公司的錢，可是下屬向他舉報，因此他將對方開除。
「也有幾個例子就是經理收了帳，可是沒有把錢存入銀行，以及賣產品收了錢，卻謊稱交易取消，錢就入自己的口袋。這些都是失信的例子。」
馬哈迪接受《馬來西亞前鋒報》的專訪，這麼指出。
■馬來人的確無誠信
他質問說，有多少個馬來人在借錢後，有償還欠款？
「借到貸學金，沒有還。不是沒錢，只是不要還。有誠信的人是有借有還的，就算是保管人家的錢，我們也必須好好管理。只要馬來人不偷，就已經很成功了。」
他說，很多時候人們會比較樂意把工程合約頒發給華人，因為華人更懂得怎樣做，造成這種局面的原因，是馬來人沒誠信。
馬哈迪說，他不想欺騙自己，馬來人懶惰就是懶惰，如果他這樣說就令他人不滿，就由他們，這是他當任巫統主席那麼多年，一直重複的事實。
■華人比馬來人好學
他分析國立大學的錄取趨勢說，現在巫裔大學生有70%是女性，馬來男子不求學，變成飆車黨。
「就算是上大學求學也不認真，不喜歡閱讀，因此學而無成。」
他感嘆，華裔生學習3種語言，卻比馬來人能講更流利的英語。
「我感到羞恥，馬來人只是學兩種語言而已，可是就有馬來人覺得學馬來文就好，不需要學英語。」
■堅持英語教數理政策正確
政府早前推行的英語教數理政策，是馬哈迪退位前的政策，可是因為無法達到預期效果而廢除。
馬哈迪重申，數學與科學是「流動性」的知識，日新月異，不像地理或歷史「一成不變」。
「在歷史，我們不能改變過去發生戰爭的年份；在地理，國界都是規定好的，不會隨便改變。數學及科學就不同，每天都有新的研究發現，如果不懂得英語，根本無法掌握最新的知識。」
Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad defended his criticism of Malays, admitting that he was ashamed that they had been left behind by the forward-thinking Chinese community.
Malaysia's longest-serving prime minister said the Malays were still lazy, citing the gender imbalance at institutions of higher learning where the majority was women.
"The Malays are lazy, they are not interested in studying and revising. If we go to the universities, 70% of the students are women, where are the men?"
"They prefer to become Mat Rempit, that is why I said they are lazy," Dr Mahathir told Umno mouthpiece Utusan Malaysia in an exclusive interview published today.
Earlier this week when launching a book, Dr Mahathir had lamented that Malays do not feel ashamed of failures anymore.
He had admitted that he failed to change the mentality of the Malays in his 22 years as prime minister.
"I spend 22 years trying to change the Malays but I admit I failed. However, there are a few success stories," he said in his remarks after launching a book by Anas Zubedy on Thursday.
"If anyone asks me today, I would have to say Malays are lazy," he had said.
Dr Mahathir said although the Malays had been awarded places in institutions of higher learning, but they did not make full use of their time to focus on their studies.
"I am ashamed when I see the Chinese students studying three different languages but still have a better grasp of the English language compared to their Malay peers.
"The Malays study two languages, Bahasa Malaysia and English, but they keep saying all right, that is enough, no need to learn English anymore."
Dr Mahathir was referring to Putrajaya's decision to abolish the teaching of Science and Mathematics in English, which he had introduced in 2003.
The former Umno president said it was disappointing that the Malays were dishonest and lacked integrity because they prioritised money more compared to the Chinese.
Dr Mahathir said he was operating a bakery and had various staff working for him, including Chinese, Malay and Myanmar nationals.
"However, what I am ashamed of is that when some Malay workers see money, they forget themselves and their values.
"They see money and if they can steal it, they steal it. The Chinese are not like this," Dr Mahathir told the weekend edition of the paper, Mingguan Malaysia.
He also raised the issue of Malay attitude when it came to debts, saying they could afford to repay their debts but refused to do so.
"How many Malays are there who refuse to settle their debts? They receive scholarships and student loans but refuse to pay back.
"This is not a question of being unable to, they have the money but just refuse to honour their commitments. We must be honest."
Dr Mahathir said this was one of the factors why many contracts had been awarded to the Chinese community because they were more honest than Malays.
"When we issue a contract, we give it to the Chinese because we know they will keep their word and do a good job. That is the weakness of the Malays, we lack honesty."
Dr Mahathir admitted that he had criticised the Malay community because he did not want to lie to himself and it was better to face up to reality.
"I do not like to delude myself or lie to myself. I will call a spade a spade. If some people do not like what I say, it is their choice.
"Why did I introduce the Look East policy in 1982? It was because I admired the Japanese for their attitude towards work," Dr Mahathir said.
