“Immature politics!” – Govt MP Urges Opposition to Stop Blaming Chinese Community for Everything

A Malaysian lawmaker stresses that it’s high time we stop blaming the Chinese community in Malaysia for everything unfortunate that befalls.

Mohd Sany Hamzan, Member of Parliament (MP) for Hulu Langat, highlighted that in the Parliament yesterday (10 November), hoping that the Opposition will stop spreading the hateful ideologies that could harm the harmony in the country, calling it “immature politics.”

Hulu Langat MP calls for mature politics

Speaking in Parliament, Sany criticised the current political phenomenon of “blaming everything on the Chinese”, saying that it could undermine national security and harmony.

“The country has been independent for nearly 68 years. Its political culture should reflect quality, knowledge and integrity, rather than narrow-mindedness, racialisation and hatred.”

“If you lose an election, blame the Chinese. If you don’t win, blame the Chinese. If you fall off a motorcycle, blame the Chinese, even if you can’t buy a TV, blame the Chinese,” Sany pointed out that everything seemed to be the fault of the Chinese community.

Ministry of National Unity urged to take action

Accordingly, Sany urged the Ministry of National Unity to take action against the spread of racial hatred and falsehoods used in elections and to promote a truly mature political dialogue.

“Now we don’t know whether the people communicating on social media are real people or machines.”

At the same time, Sany also suggested strengthening elements of unity through sports and festivals, which could potentially unite Malaysians of all races.

What do you think of Sany’s take on this matter?
