Dr Mahathir Mohamad says the ‘red shirt’ rally scheduled today should be cancelled because it is based on a faulty premise.
“They are organising it because they said the Bersih rally was racist. But the Bersih rally was not racist as every race was there together,” said the former Prime Minister on Tuesday, according to The Star Online. “So they make Bersih racist to show that they are championing the Malays.”
Mahathir was at the Perdana Leadership Foundation in Putrajaya on Tuesday. He accused the organisers of using the issue of racism to justify today’s rally.
