Will Government reveal how it came up with 18.9%?
PETALING JAYA: Opposition leader Lim Kit Siang has asked when the methodology which the Government used to calculate the 18.9% bumiputra equity ownership will be revealed.
He said more than a week had passed since the issue was discussed at the Cabinet meeting but there has not been official word about the controversy over the Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute (Asli) study on bumiputra equity ownership.
Lim said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had said Malaysians had the right to question the Government or to seek answers on such issues.
”Why then the thunderous silence on the part of the Cabinet in the past week on the public release of the methodology and data used by the EPU to compute the 18.9% and to rebut the 45% figure in the Asli report?” he said.
