Scrapping the Affirmative action in Malaysia



Based on the talk show about the affirmative action , from the three guest i am choosing Dato Ibrahim Saad the former deputy chief of Penang. By using discourse analysis , here are the his preposition ,premise and argument.

Preposition : New Economic Policy should not be scrapped in Malaysia

Premise 1: If you scrap NEP people who need this policy will suffer

Argument: Malaya and poor people need this policy to get rid of poverty

Premise 2: The policy is fine but the implementation are sometimes done with wrong ways

Argument: The misuse of the policy, the giving of contract


I was agree with Dato Ibrahim Saad preposition because as a minority race, Malays in Penang are still backward toward economic business, that handled mostly by the Chinese. By scraping the NEP, government will suppress and killed opportunity of Malays and other races to compete.
