“I absolutely agree with the suggestion that there needs to be a bi-partisan committee to handle race relations,” he said today during a panel discussion at the LawAsia Constitutional and Rule of Law Conference 2019 in Petaling Jaya.

  • Ban all race based political party, the country will progress well and money will be coming to Malaysia. Now people hear of BN and Umno PAS played up the racial conflicts, no investors will be really interested. Vietnam will soon overtake Malaysia as an emerging economy. Malay and muslims play to fail the state for the sake of political power in expense of the country well being. If u have a bit of brain, u know for sure PAS can't help anybody to progress. Watch out, foreign investments are moving out of the country after decades here, less jobs in future, property glut, limited local investment means even lesser jobs, commodity price dropped plus limited sales will soon farmers can't even sell their crops means zero income.
