An Indian schoolboy had been called “pariah” and “negro” in Sek. Men. Kebangsaan (SMK) Bandar Baru Putra in Ipoh, Komunitikini reported.
His engineer father Muniandy, 32, said that his son was taunted that his face would not be visible after dark because of his skin colour.
According to Komunitikini, Muniandy believes that the racist remarks directed at his son might have been due to the influence of Interlok.
“There are so many books out there. There is no need for this book to remain at all,” he said.
Muniandy also alleged that his wife who teaches at the same school was punished with a transfer after he complained to the discipline teacher.
This Interlok controversy, it seems, has caused the victims (the schoolboys and the parents) to be punished whereas the bullies get away scot free.
A sick book in the hands of sick people, and this is what you get.
