马哈迪·莫哈末
The Bangsa Malaysia () policy was introduced by Mahathir Mohamad, then Prime Minister of Malaysia, to create an inclusive national identity for all inhabitants of Malaysia, thus abandoning the National Culture Policy that asserted a Malay ethnic national identity. Mahathir Mohamad said it means "people being able to identify themselves with the country, speak "Bahasa Malaysia" (the Malay language) and accept the Constitution."
