Malaysians, could you elaborate on the Social Contract?

It was for Merdeka from British

Yuna,

Actually I just realized about this social contract on Friday from the Sun newspaper. I didn't read the whole things because it was riddled with law terms and sadly I am not very bright.

So you see, I do not have any motive whatsoever. I just would like to know what is this social contract, how long it lasted, was it a written contract and who agreed to it.

TheBear babi siam! Of course lah you will give Spooky fox best answer. Spooky Fox is also you right?

sorry, i cant

The Constitution does not explicitly refer to a "social contract" (in terms of citizenship rights and privileges), and no act of law or document has ever fully set out the social contract's terms. Its defenders often refer to the Constitution as setting out the social contract, and the Malaysian founding fathers having agreed to it, although no reference to a "social contract" appears in the Constitution. Instead, the social contract is typically taken to mean a quid pro quo agreement that provides the non-Malay and other non-indigenous peoples of Malaysia (mostly the Malaysian Chinese and Malaysian Indian) with citizenship, in return for their granting special privileges to the Malays and indigenous people of Malaysia, collectively referred to as the Bumiputra (sons of the soil).

would love to be able to... but in all honesty, i cant.

i think spookyfox should be right. whatever

u must be so bored to be asking this type of question, however; i do know where u are getting at. I am sure u do know the answer yourself. Be nice will ya.

Give SpookyFox the best answer. Its one of the best I've ever read from him so far.
