Kuala Lumpur: The formation of the Malay Secretariat Committee is politically motivated, in contrast to the Bumiputera Economic Congress (KEB), which actively advocates for Bumiputera rights, said UMNO Supreme Council Member Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan. He emphasized that the KEB, driven by the MADANI Government, has a focused and consistent plan to uplift the Bumiputera community as a whole.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Ahmad Maslan remarked that the rights of the Malays have been a long-standing focus for UMNO and Barisan Nasional (BN), which consistently advocated for their interests. This commitment is particularly evident in promoting the welfare of the Bumiputera community each year. Ahmad highlighted various initiatives, such as the KEB, that the government is implementing to uplift the Bumiputera community.

Ahmad’s statements underscore the strategic approach of KEB, contrasting it against the politically motivated intentions behind the Malay Secretariat Committee. His comments reflect the broader political discourse surrounding the support and advocacy for the Bumiputera community in Malaysia.
