[superadmin]

KUALA LUMPUR – PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang has claimed that non-Muslims and non-Bumiputeras are the ones most involved in causing corruption.

In a lengthy post on Facebook, Hadi said corruption had roots, akin to stagnant water that allowed mosquitoes to breed.

“Preventing dengue is not just about treating the patient and killing mosquitoes, we must also clear the stagnant water that breeds mosquitoes.

“It is the same with efforts to deal with the disease of corruption. It must be done holistically so that it does not become an epidemic if its roots are not treated comprehensively.

“In particular, action must be taken against those who are the cause of corruption by pursuing illegal wealth.

“It is among them, who control the country’s economy and use it to destroy politics, the administration and the judiciary. In fact, they are also the biggest group damaging the country’s politics and economy, the majority of them being non-Muslims and non-Bumiputeras,” Hadi said.
