AMANAH vice-president Dr Mujahid Yusof Rawa has apologised to the party’s non-Muslim members for a lack of sensitivity towards them.

In his winding-up speech at the party’s annual congress, Mujahid said the organiser was insensitive towards the non-Muslims throughout the convention.

“I want to reprimand the organiser, why are we being insensitive towards non-Muslims. It is a simple thing such as food, we know Hindus can’t eat beef, why can’t we be more thoughtful on such matters.

“I apologise to the non-Muslims of Amanah. They are not second-class members, they are our members,” said the former PAS man.

Mujahid then slammed members who still voted along racial lines.

“I am disappointed that we still can’t move away from race. We still vote based on colour and religion.

“Our party is inclusive. That is the purpose when Amanah was formed and that was our promise to the people when we were formed.

“I hope this issue can be addressed in our next meeting.” – December 8, 2019.

  • Apology accepted. But don't think and act so slow. U r the minister, u just inculcate a policy above race and religion on national issues. Set the standard for the country above race and religion yet no conflict or confrontation against any rrLigion or race. Focus on this, with solutions on this , only u would be able to unite the rakyat of different race and religion.

  • I would suggest that you eat and drink 25 bananas, and goats milk for 21 days-walked around naked outside Parliament house and shout "say otak udang" 25 times in Merdeka Square. This is in repentance for your stupidity! How on earth you are in a position of power, I dont understand.
