Immigrants and Squatters

'Chinese are pendatang.'

'Chinese are penumpang.'

These are the remarks made by an UMNO leader.

When he is asked to apologise, “I am not going to apologise as I do not owe any apology to anyone on this issue. I have done nothing wrong,” he said.

Furthermore,

He demanded that Chinese community leaders should apologise to him instead of asking him to express regret.

This is still not enough,

He said he wanted the reporter who reported his alleged remark in a Chinese newspaper to apologise to him, his family, friends, the Malay community and Muslims for “manipulating” his speech.

He even,

reminded Umno leaders not to be weak and get carried away by taking care of the feelings of others while being insensitive to the feelings of the Malays.

More disappointing,

Dr M has questioned why Malay leaders were apologising over a remark deemed as racist by an Umno leader.

Dr.M was comparing that racist leader's remarks with the remarks made by HINDRAF extremist and the Negarakuku WEE and claimed that,

'non-Malay leaders never apologised when similar racist remarks were made by members of their community.'

So, does he mean that,

A remark made by a kid is compatible with a remark made by a community leader? Afterall, WEE did make an apology, but that leader is trying to twist the fact and being arrogant. 'Berani cakap, tak berani mengaku.'

and..

A remark made by a non-political extremist HINDRAF is compatible with a remark made by an UMNO leader? So, is UMNO an extremist as well?

"I'm not gonna apologise, I didn't do anything wrong."
