| An inclusive history, one that is truthful, unbiased and balanced with a historical narrative that encompasses all the facets of Malaysia’s plural society and inculcates a sense of belonging and identity among Malaysians, is long overdue.
First, the British North Borneo Company was officially established in 1882, and not 1881. Secondly, it was not only the British who were involved in commercial agriculture but also the Chinese who played a significant role in cultivating pepper, gambier, tapioca and sugarcane. Fourthly, the textbook makes no mention of the role of Yap Ah Loy in developing Kuala Lumpur. Lastly, the role of the Indians and the Chinese in the economic development of British Malaya is not given due emphasis unlike in earlier history textbooks.
Thank the late historian KKK for that. That was why majority of the grieving BNMalaysia & some pakatanharapan_ members were glorifying & pouring tributes to his demise & renaming roads to his name. saifuddinabd syahredzan
Yes. Out country’s history books were changed to reflect untruths during the current PM’s first term. He is to be blamed for putting us through the race and religion divide and the kleptocracy government which followed after him.
