Guan Eng says willing to testify in court against govt’s ‘unconstitutional’ decision requiring 51pc Bumiputera equity in logistics companies

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 17 — DAP’s Lim Guan Eng has again questioned the government’s requirement for local freight forwarding companies to have 51 per cent Bumiputera equity, claiming such policies were contradictory to their promises of being inclusive.

He then said how a reversal of that circular, which he claimed was unlawful, was even affirmed by current Finance Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz in Parliament when the latter said the decision requiring the 51 per cent Bumiputera equity was made recently by the current government. Lim also questioned the reasoning behind the ruling that only applies to local IILS and not foreign players, saying the double standard goes against the government’s repeated claims of inclusivity.

Zafrul had recently announced an extension to an exemption period for freight forwarders to meet the requirement of 51 per cent Bumiputera equity participation until December 2022.
