ABSTRACT
The New Economic Policy (NEP) was introduced as an affirmative action to eradicate poverty and rearrange the social structure. However, recently the debates followed the controversial research report from ASLI, a think-tank that revealed that Bumiputra already achieved more than 30% in the equity. The debate was emotional and divert from the academic purposes. At the same time, a lot of people started to question the achievement of the NEP. Are we achieve the goals set by NEP? How is the assessment been made? Did we involve in the discussion process on the achievement of NEP?
As a young people, a "stakeholder" of the society, what do we think about NEP? Are we benefit from the NEP? Why it always been seen as the racial issues or sensitive issues? How to engage in the discussion of the NEP? Why the young people cannot involve in the discussion which regarding the future of the nation?
All these questions will be discussed in the public forum by the young and prominent speakers. Come to share your views and witness the power of youth to bring changes and generate new ideas.
