In 2025, **** percent of the Malaysian population were classified as Bumiputera, **** percent were classified as ethnic Chinese, and *** percent as ethnic Indians. Those who do not fall under these three main ethnic groups are classified as ‘Other.’ Malaysia is a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society with three main ethnicities and language groups. Who are Malaysia’s Bumiputera? Bumiputera, meaning sons of the soil, is a term used to categorize the Malays, as well as the indigenous peoples of Peninsular Malaysia, also known as "orang asli", and the indigenous peoples of Sabah and Sarawak. As 2024, the Bumiputera share of the population in Sabah was ** percent, while that in Sarawak was **** percent. Thus, the incorporation of the states of Sabah and Sarawak during the formation of Malaysia ensured that the ethnic Malays were able to maintain a majority share of the Malaysian population. Bumiputera privileges and ethnic-based politics The rights and privileges of the Malays and the natives of Sabah and Sarawak are enshrined in Article 153 of Malaysia’s constitution. This translated, in practice, to a policy of affirmative action to improve the economic situation of this particular group, through the New Economic Policy introduced in 1971. 50 years on, it is questionable whether the policy has achieved its aim. Bumiputeras still lag behind the other ethnic two major groups in terms of monthly household income. However, re-thinking this policy will certainly be met by opposition from those who have benefitted from it.

As of the first half of 2024, the Bumiputera or Malay population in Malaysia made up around **** million of the population. By comparison, there were around *** million Malaysians of Indian descent.

As a multicultural country led by 3 different races, it was a tough journey for Malaya (now known as Malaysia) to continue preserving their own unique identity. In the 16th century, they fell into the hands of Portuguese Colonists, then the Dutch, Britishs and eventually the Japanese occupation and communist threat in the 1940s.

Although things eventually became better when the Japanese surrendered, the imbalance in racial composition between the original Malay settlers and Chinese immigrants sparked numerous civil wars between the 2 races (which eventually led to the separation of Singapore from Malaya in 1965). Although these racial tensions are still present today in 2023, matters have been way peaceful except on some occasions where manipulative politicians raise these issues again to prepare for a potential coup d'etat.
