Press statement by Teresa Kok, Selangor State Senior EXCO and MP for Seputeh in Shah Alam on 22 April 2011<\/em><\/p>\n

Najib\u2019s refusal to condemn Utusan\u2019s racist-charged call for 1Melayu 1Bumi movement proves his 1Malaysia concept is really 1Joke, with no substance, no credibility whatsoever<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"
\nUtusan Malaysia\u2019s call to UMNO to spearhead a 1Melayu 1Bumi movement to battle Malaysians of Chinese descent is but the latest public provocation by the UMNO-owned daily to sow hatred, fear and suspicion among right-thinking Malaysians.<\/p>\n

Utusan Malaysia\u2019s call is outrageous because it suggests extremist, far-right, Malay supremacist tendencies which are totally against the 1Malaysia concept preached by Prime Minister Najib Razak. What is most outrageous of all is Najib\u2019s tolerance of and refusal to condemn Utusan Malaysia\u2019s racist invective. (Source: http:\/\/www.themalaysianinsider.com\/malaysia\/article\/utusans-1-melayu-1-bumi-movement-a-personal-opinion-says-pm<\/a>\/ )
\nNajib has instead brushed off Utusan\u2019s vilification of Malaysians of Chinese descent with the feeble excuse that it was merely the personal opinion of the writer. <\/p>\n

If Najib were truly a Prime Minister for all Malaysians, he would have condemned Utusan Malaysia outright without hesitation and ordered the suspension of the writer with immediate effect. After all, he has all the power and authority to do so being the President of UMNO which owns Utusan Malaysia.<\/p>\n

It is two-faced of Najib to be spouting 1Malaysia rhetoric one day and turning a blind eye to Utusan Malaysia\u2019s racist invective the next. His inaction proves once and for all that he couldn\u2019t care less should Malaysia be further divided along racist lines or should any harm befall Malaysians of Chinese descent following the establishment of 1Melayu 1Bumi. Najib\u2019s 1Malaysia concept is really 1Joke with no substance, no credibility whatsoever.

Utusan\u2019s \u20181 Melayu, 1 Bumi\u2019 movement a personal opinion, says PM<\/a><\/em><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n
\n
By Asrul Hadi Abdullah Sani<\/em><\/div>\n
April 22, 2011<\/em><\/div>\n

PUTRAJAYA, April 22 \u2014 Datuk Seri Najib Razak distanced his administration today from Utusan Malaysia\u2019s call for a \u20181 Melayu, 1 Bumi\u2019 movement, saying it was the personal opinion of the writer in the Umno-owned daily.<\/em><\/p>\n

The prime minister also said the Malay-language newspaper will not deter the government\u2019s commitment to the 1 Malaysia concept.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThat is the personal opinion of the writer. In terms of the government, we already have a concept that is very clear and we will continue our efforts,\u201d Najib (picture)<\/strong> told a press conference here.<\/em><\/p>\n

Utusan Malaysia has called on its owners Umno to spearhead a 1 Melayu, 1 Bumi movement involving all Malay parties, claiming that the DAP was intent on toppling the country\u2019s Malay leadership by appealing to the Chinese vote.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat Umno needs to do now, in this pressing time, is to launch a wave of racial unity \u2014 1 Melayu, 1 Bumi. Launch 1 Melayu, 1Bumi immediately with other Malay parties,\u201d assistant chief editor Datuk Zaini Hassan wrote in the Malay daily yesterday.<\/em><\/p>\n

Zaini said while the DAP had united the Chinese politically, the Malays had so far done nothing in response.<\/em><\/p>\n

Najib stressed the movement was unnecessary as the Malay community can unite by supporting Umno.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cFor the Malay community, what is important is that they continue supporting Umno. That plays a major role in uniting the Malay community in terms of politics by supporting Umno,\u201d the Umno president said.<\/em><\/p>\n

Perkasa announced yesterday that it would spearhead the \u201c1 Melayu, 1 Bumi\u201d movement and warned the Malays that the Chinese were ultimately seeking political power.<\/em><\/p>\n

In backing Utusan Malaysia\u2019s call for a movement to \u201cunite\u201d all Malay parties, Perkasa secretary-general Syed Hassan Syed Ali said that the Malay rights group did not have the \u201cluxury of time\u201d to wait for Malay political parties to initiate action.<\/em><\/p>\n

However, in a surprising move earlier today, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad spoke out against the movement and called it disastrous.<\/em><\/p>\n

Dr Mahathir said that such a movement would eventually result in a two-party system where each side would be dominated by one race.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIf we go ahead with this, there will be a two-party system… if one side is Malay-dominated and one side Chinese dominated, this would be bad,\u201d the former prime minister said.<\/em><\/p>\n

This is the first time Dr Mahathir, a strong Malay rights proponent and Perkasa patron, has disagreed with the group and Utusan\u2019s ideas.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
