Police Must Take Action On The Slap Offer

I refer to the incident yesterday where a group of NGO offered RM1200 to any person who would slap DAP’s MP YB Teresa Kok and record it in a video.

This is after the controversial video produced by YB Teresa Kok over the Chinese New Year, which had angered many Malaysians.

Gerakan Youth hereby urged the police to take action against the group of NGO who had offered the slap reward. This is clearly an offer to assault a person which is against the law.

Even if any person is angered by the controversial video, no one should take the law into their own hands.

The controversial video is not the culture of Malaysian Chinese community during the Chinese New Year festivities. No person should try to make it a race or religious issue.

We urge all Malaysians to remain calm over the controversial video and let the police take the appropriate action.
