It's Umno NOT Chinese & Tamil schools that create racial tensions - DAP

It's Umno NOT Chinese & Tamil schools that create racial tensions - DAP
KUALA LUMPUR - Vernacular education often becomes the “black sheep” whenever the Umno general assembly commences each year, said DAP national organising secretary Anthony Loke Siew Fook.
He said the Umno delegates at the assembly often brought up educational issues involving Chinese-medium and Tamil-medium schools as the major cause of racial issues in the Malaysia.
“That is a norm during the Umno general assembly, where vernacular education is often the black sheep of the family in causing racial disharmony in the country.
“The truth is, however, most of the racial tension is spewed out by Umno themselves,” he told The Rakyat Post today.
Loke said this when asked to comment on the statement by Umno Petaling Jaya Utara deputy division chief Mohamad Azli Mohemed Saad who stated his intention to bring up the issue during this year’s Umno general assembly.
Loke also denied Mohamad Azli’s statement that the Opposition used the issue involving Chinese-medium schools as a tool to stir up racial hatred in Malaysia.
“Do not blame the vernacular education system as the stumbling block to unity as the current racial tensions are due to the failure of BN to unite the people of Malaysia in reaching national unity.
“To state that such schools are the Opposition’s tool is mindless when these schools are still under the purview of the Education Ministry.
“Opposition leaders are not allowed to enter these schools, so how can even we be accused of as tools in the first place?.
According to a report by Utusan Online today, Mohamad Azli voiced out his view that the issue involving vernacular schools would be brought out during the assembly in November.
He had said that the assembly provided the best platform to discuss whether Chinese-medium schools should be abolished or not.
This, he claimed, was due to the fact that Chinese-medium schools were used as tools by the Opposition to plant racist and anti-government sentiment. -http://www.therakyatpost.com
