She unfortunately twisted what I had said and suggested that I was an “Islamaphobic bigot who thinks Malay-Muslims are a threat”. I had not said anything like that. I spoke about the issue of integration in the Malaysian education system. The key points I wanted to convey were: 1) The Chinese leadership in various local areas in Malaysia want to maintain control over the Chinese population. It suits them to have Chinese students go to Chinese schools instead of mainstream Malaysian schools. And the schools are more Chinese (because they are effectively single race). 2) At the same time, many mainstream schools in Malaysia are becoming more Malay (because the students are largely Malay) and Islamic (e.g. through the way some principals and teachers handle matters) which discourages the Chinese from going into those schools. 3) So you end up with having more Malays going to mainstream schools, and more Chinese going to Chinese schools. As a result, the different races are kept apart from a young age. 4) This makes integration more difficult. My point therefore was essentially that this is the predominant situation in the Malaysian education system. This is not good for integration. The video clip of the news carried the essence of what I said, and this is also evident from the transcript of what I said. What Ms Thanapal wrote is inaccurate and seditious, and attributes to me sentiments that I do not hold and have never held. I intend to file a police report about this tomorrow. https://www.facebook.com/k.shanmugam.page Click here to view the whole thread at www.sammyboy.com. |
