PuTERA35: Yet Another Affirmative Action Policy?

The government has launched the Bumiputera Economic Transformation Plan 2035, an 11-year initiative designed to address economic disparities between the Bumiputera community and other ethnic groups. Ahmad Yazid Othman, Senior Fellow at Majlis Tindakan Ekonomi Melayu (MTEM), shares his thoughts on PuTERA35 and whether or not its targets which include raising Bumiputera employment in skilled sectors to 70% by 2035, from 61% currently, are indeed achievable.
