Ti Lian Ker claims Harapan playing race card while PAS-Umno is talking about inclusiveness.

MCA vice-president Ti Lian Ker today said Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad's planned attendance at the Malay Dignity Congress next month could aggravate tensions in a multiracial country.

"It is ironic that PAS and Umno are now talking of Muafakat Nasional without impairing the position and rights of other ethnic and religious groups, but the Harapan government and Bersatu leaders are promoting a Malay phobia of 'Malay dignity' camouflaged by public universities," he said in a statement today.

Ti said Mahathir must be reminded that he is the prime minister for all Malaysians and not just a Malay leader. The centre's director Hashim Ismail, however, said Mahathir would be present"not as prime minister but as a Malay leader".
