FORMER UMNO leaders Khairy Jamaluddin and Shahril Sufian Hamdan have urged former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to stop his attacks against multiracial Malaysia.
In a segment of the “Keluar Sekejap” podcast episode, Khairy said Dr Mahathir comes from a different era and defines him as a ‘creature of his time.’
“I believe Dr Mahathir doesn’t create things as he is a politician of conviction. This is him ever since he wrote the Malay Dilemma in the 1960s. He comes from a different time and is a creature of his time,” said the former health minister in an attempt to understand why the elderly statesman is stirring confusion.
But Shahril is of the opinion that Dr Mahathir should simply stop.
“For a former prime minister who has helmed the country twice, he needs to stop. It is time to stop rationalising for Dr Mahathir,” said Shahril.
Shahril also asked that after many generations, why is there a need to question a Malaysian’s race?
