PETALING JAYA: DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng has dismissed MCA president Wee Ka Siong’s description of the resolution of the Timah whisky branding controversy as a demonstration of the government’s Keluarga Malaysia concept.
Wee had been quoted in news reports as saying the Cabinet reached its decision “in the spirit of Keluarga Malaysia”.
Lim pointed out that the decision on the Timah name came while a ban on the sale of alcohol at Chinese medicine halls and sundry shops in Kuala Lumpur was still in place.
He said the ban “clearly interferes in the traditional business practices and customary lifestyle of non-Muslims” and was contrary to the Keluarga Malaysia concept and the multiracial and multi-cultural character of Kuala Lumpur.
