KUALA LUMPUR: The “Keluarga Malaysia” concept – espoused by the current administration – is good, but should not just be practised when one is in government, Khalid Samad (PH-Shah Alam) said today.
“But when one becomes the opposition, you fan racial sentiments instead,” the Amanah vice-president said in hitting out at the parties in the current administration during the debate on Budget 2022.
He also expressed regret that the death of fireman Muhammad Adib Mohd Kassim had been politicised, with the PH government being accused of failing to protect the Malays and defending the non-Malays.
The coalition, he added, had also been accused of being controlled by non-Malays and non-Muslims.
The then opposition, he said, was prepared to manipulate a tragedy for their political interests only because “the victim was Malay”.
