P Ramasamy asks if Maszlee Malik is seeking to score 'political points in a predominantly Malay crowd'.
GEORGE TOWN: DAP’s P Ramasamy today criticised Education Minister Maszlee Malik for linking the quota system in the government’s matriculation programme with trends in the employment market, saying the minister appears “entrapped” along racial lines.
Ramasamy said by the same logic, the minister ought to look at the racial imbalance in the civil service, where the Bumiputera form the majority in government offices. He claimed the job market has been discriminating against non-Mandarin speakers as well as those wearing the Muslim headscarf.
