I refer to the statement by former Court of Appeal Judge Mohd Noor Abdullah
yesterday who warned that the Malaysian Chinese must be prepared for a backlash
from the Malay community for their "betrayal" in the recently
concluded 13th general election.

With due respect to him, the general election is a
democratic process where any Malaysian can choose whichever party they wish to
vote. Their choice is not an act of betrayal towards any political party or
community.
No doubt, Barisan Nasional may have lost the
support of majority of Malaysian Chinese in the 13th general
election. However, not all Malaysian Chinese voted for the opposition. There are still a large number of Malaysian
Chinese who supported the Barisan Nasional government.
Thus, it’s grossly misleading for him to create a
false perception as if all Malaysian Chinese had betrayed the Malay community.
In fact, there are also people from the Malay
community who supported the opposition.
As a current member of the MACC complaints
committee, Mohd Noor Abdullah should refrain from making any statement that
would cause uneasiness among Malaysians after the 13th general
election.
Kedah
Gerakan Youth is of the opinion that MACC should review the position of Mohd
Noor Abdullah in their complaints committee.
Everyone should work together to unite Malaysians
after the 13th general election and not otherwise.
