Utusan calls Chinese ungrateful, again

Umno mouthpiece Utusan Malaysia has again played the race card by calling the Chinese in Malaysia ungrateful despite being given citizenship here, the privileges in the economic sector and the leeway to develop Chinese schools.

This time the paper justified its argument by drawing heavily on a book published by Ye Lin-Shing from China, The Chinese Dilemma, in 2003.
“Ye-Lin is a businessman in Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Hong Kong, Australia, Britain and United States. His book captures his experience involving the Chinese in these countries. He criticised many parties including the Malaysian Chinese,” said Awang Selamat, the pseudonym for its collective editorial team, in the weekend edition, Mingguan Malaysia.

“He had concluded that the Chinese here were lucky compared to other countries, yet were still ungrateful. He had also stressed how generous the Malays were in the social contract prior to independence in allowing the Chinese citizenship.

“Yet when Utusan Malaysia published a front page article title ‘Apa Lagi Cina Mahu?’ two days after the 13th general elections, some DAP and Chinese non-governmental organisations were upset even though it was a realistic and rational question.

“Despite controlling the country’s economy, the development of Chinese schools and the implementation of government policies which allows the Chinese to continue to prosper, the Chinese still wants to topple Malay political leadership from power.”

It is a clear message that the Chinese do not like to be criticised and that the racial approach to politics is becoming dangerous, Awang Selamat said.
“Ye-Lin said the Chinese in Malaysia were lucky compared to those in other countries. Hence, surely they should feel lucky (to stay in Malaysia),” he said referring to Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia and The Philippines where, he added, Chinese were denied citizenship or forced to leave the country.
“This book is relevant especially after the 13th general election where we witnessed a Chinese tsunami where they didn’t support the BN’s Malay leadership.

“Despite controlling the country’s economy, the development of Chinese schools and the implementation of government policies which allows them to continue to prosper, the Chinese still want to topple the Malay political power.
“They are demanding for equal rights and support the DAP party extremists.”

Awang Selamat said even Ye Lin admitted that the Chinese in Malaysia were arrogant, insulting and unfair to the Malays. :rolleyes:
“The Chinese are now colonising the Malays but the Malays remain patient and polite as these are their traits,” he said. :rolleyes:

“I pity the Malays for not coming to their senses. Even though they have given in to the Chinese, they continue to be hurt and betrayed.” – October 27, 2013.
