NON-MALAYS should be grateful that they were welcomed by Muslims to Malaya despite coming as coolies, said PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang.

“The migrants were brought here by the colonialists, and it is the compassion of Muslims that accepted anyone.

“How else could small families of Indians and Chinese live and be treated well in Malay-majority Kelantan and Kedah?” said Hadi as the final speaker at the “Bantah ICERD” rally in downtown Kuala Lumpur today.

“But now there are political parties that want to show off with their simple majority…a victory that came from us,” said the 71-year-old Islamist.

Hadi said Pakatan Harapan was overambitious to have attempted to ratify ICERD with its simple majority.

“Do those who voted for Pakatan know of the social contract that forms the basis of the Federal Constitution; that Islam is the official religion, while other religions can be freely practiced, and Malay rights, without sidelining other races, already exists? Isn’t our social contract better than ICERD?”

The Marang MP said Malaysia was more civilised than the West that valued animal rights more than human rights.

“How bold they were to attempt to bring ICERD to Parliament,” said Hadi, explaining why decided to take the issue to a street protest.

He said when the Portuguese invaded Malacca in the 16th century, Muslims were the only ones who opposed the invaders.

“They were not afraid of the colonialists canons or guns. They opposed them with their keris when nobody else would.”

Hadi closed his speech with a poem warning PH against bringing up the ICERD issue again.

“Don’t oppose the wave and beware the backlash if you stir the hornets’ nest,” said Hadi.

Although held in tandem with Umno and other Islamic pressure groups, the rally was attended by tens of thousands of mainly PAS supporters.

Also present at the rally were Umno president Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, deputy president Mohamad Hasan and former president Najib Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor.

Other notable attendees from  Umno were Annuar Musa, Ahmad Maslan, Tajuddin Abdul Rahman and Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki. – December 8, 2018.

    • The most important thing for all Malaysians to bear in mind & always remember is that the modern British are a generally fair-minded people, so they ensured Chinese and Indians would also be citizens at Merdeka in 1957, in recognition of their consiattinons in helping to build the then Malaya..

    • The caption (above) to this small article should actually read "Malays should be grateful for the presence of non-Malays in Malaysia? Mainly owing to Indian banana leaf curry which modern scientific research now says is good for health because of the curcumin compound present in turmeric which is an essential ingredient in curries, anti-cancer being one such benefit. Chinese stir-fry method is healthier than deep-dried as it preserves much of the vitamins & important OMEGA"3 benefit for heart & brain?..

  • You are right, the colonialists who walked into Malaya after the Japanese walked in here because of your brave resistance needed working people. They needed coolies to build the roads and schools and industries because they could find you as you were hiding in the trees with monkeys.

  • This is too much. He is going overboard. This Idiot has his own agenda and influencing others with his ideology.. Tok Guru was never like this.. He was a kind, considerate man.. probably rolling in his grave with the nonsense created by Hadi.. Sorry and sad to say, his successor Hadi is a far cry..!

  • Hadi, this land does not belong to you only! My rights here is as much as your rights so shut your trap in telling non malays that they should be grateful. In fact, if not for every one here, except your kind, this country would not have developed to what it is today. However, bcoz of you and your kind who only interested in handouts, the country pales in progress when compare to neighboring countries. You & your stupid kind still harping on race & religion for your very self interest

  • I say, let Hadi have his day. Let all those who rallied have their moments in the sun. At the end of it all NOTHING is going to change except for the balm and salve for their egos. I wish all of them well and urge them to get back to work tomorrow.

  • Haha....Hadi the Kingmaker lost. He can have both Kelantan and Terengganu but without free flow of money into both the State government, slowly they will not survive until the next election. Goodbye Hadi. Remember to bring along your racism to your grave.

  • Yeahh, you guys were so smart that is why Malaysia is doing so great right now lol. Hadi Awang, sudah tua, pergi baca you punya Sejarah Balik la....why tremble when we all just want Equality. Whu not e ok with being Equal since we are all Malaysians after all. Why should there be more benefits for the Muslims only? As a Portuguese decendant, it is about time we have some proper Equality in Malaysia. Ps, ppl all over the world sees this. Get your facts right.
