Malay Indians Seek $4 Trillion in Reparations

A lawsuit on behalf of 2 million Indians in Malaysia is seeking $4 billion in reparations from Britain for bringing their ancestors to Malaya as indentured laborers and exploiting them under colonial rule.
The lawsuit filed in London alleges that British neglect after Malyasia’s independence from Britain is responsible for their plight.
 

Indians, the second largest minority group in Malaysia after the Chinese, are economically disadvantaged under Malaysia’s Bhoomiputra policies favoring Malays.
