By the Way is Cartrade one of the special priviliged few which get APs to import cars? And are these APs given to them because of their great contribution to this nation? What level playing field are you talking about. You keep changing the goal posts! So you think what is yours is yours and what is mine is yours! That's supposed to be a level playing field. You take a 50M headstart in a 100M race and still lose, so you make the rest of us carry extra sandbags (and still give you a 50M headstart) when we race with you and you still lose, so you now say we need to cut off one leg, carry a sandbag and give you a 50M haedstart. Go to hell! Please don't talk of level playing fields when you push people into the abyss because they work harder and sacrifice more than you. Tun Ismail Ali could hold his own against any other in the world without the need to discriminate against another on the grounds of their race, religion or sex. (And he did not even have APs) Can't you see? The 2 banks do not put any obstacles in front of bumiputra lawyers being on the panel. So how are they deprived of oppunities when it is these Banks that dish out the WORK. So why tell the rest they have to restructure? What level playing field you are talking about. If other banks discriminate against bumiputra lawyers then they should be EQUALLY punished as Banks who discriminate against non-bumiputra lawyers. You eliminate discrimination by prohibiting it, NOT further discriminating. How level is your AP playing field, do you give others a chance? Do you give other bumiputras a chance too. Can every bumiputra also get a commercial AP? or is membership closed for new members to the AP club?
