STRESSING that Pakatan Harapan (PH) has never made UMNO less Malay, the party’s communication director Datuk Lokman Noor Adam has called on all UMNO members to be wary of the propaganda of voting only for UMNO but to abstain from voting should other PH component parties, especially DAP, contest in their constituencies.
Stating that this runs afoul of the spirit of the unity government, the UMNO Supreme Council member emphasised the need to unite in a multi-ethical environment as a plural society even if majority of the population is made up of Muslim Malays.
“If we can accept Malaysia as a plural society, then we should not deprive others of a chance to make a living in the country,” he told a question & answer (Q&A) session on his live Facebook broadcast yesterday (June 7) after addressing UMNO’s deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan’s (Tok Mat) concerns over who will further trust UMNO if the unity government fails.
“Today we have to accept the reality that DAP and other coalition members of the unity government managed to generate support from 97% of non-Malay voters which is by no means a small figure.”
