Terengganu’s new task force for minorities
Terengganu BN is following up on its rejuvenation process by setting up a task force to protect and take care of the needs of the minority communities - Chinese, Indians, Siamese, and Orang Asli.
The idea from current Menteri Besar Ahmad Said is being headed by a MCA guy - Datuk Wong Foon Meng.
The task force’s job is among others to:
- provide suggestions and recommendations to the state government on how to lift the standard of living among the
minorities,
- look into any discriminatory policies against minorities
- render education opportunities to all locals.
- look into how more from the community could be absorbed into the state civil service.
- ensure local authorities issue licences to the minority groups without being biased
- ensure that steps be taken to stop possible occurrence of racial slurs in government departments.
