MALAYS HAVE BECOME ‘GUESTS’ IN THEIR OWN LAND – WHEN THEY SHOULD BE HOMEOWNERS & NOT THE NON-MALAYS: MAT HASAN JOINS UMNO-PAS RACE TO INCITE HATE AGAINST THE NON-MALAYS IN BID TO FISH FOR MALAY VOTES

The Malays have become akin to visitors in their own land, said Umno acting president Mohamad Hasan.

“The people who should be the homeowners have become the guests in the small house in the backyard.

“Those who were previously penumpang (guests), hugging the legs of our national fighters asking to live together in our homeland, today they live in the big house,” Mohamad said at a ceramah in Semenyih last night.

It is believed this is a reference to non-Malays in the Dewan Rakyat.

Previously under BN, Malay MPs from Umno had made up the bulk of government lawmakers, especially after 2013.

However, under the Pakatan Harapan government, 66 of the 134 seats are held by non-Malays.

Umno, together with PAS, have been pushing a narrative that the current federal government has failed to look after Malay-Muslim interests.

Mohamad, however, insisted that he is not racist.

“I am not racist, and have never been racist,” he said.

He also said that there was nothing wrong with Malays banding together.

“Don’t be worried when Malays unite, it doesn’t bring any ill to the country or other races.

“It has been proven that for 60 years, Malays, especially from Umno, governed the country through BN where people of all races lived in peace and harmony,” he said.
