Syed Saddiq: Multi-racialism only makes Malaysia stronger, Muda will prove Dr Mahathir wrong

PETALING JAYA, July 4 — Malaysian United Democratic Alliance president Syed Saddid Abdul Rahman has today vowed to prove Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, after the latter’s racial remark that promoting a multi-ethnic Malaysia means rejecting the Federal Constitution.

After the former prime minister claimed that the Constitution is steeped in “Malayness”, Syed Saddiq said Muda will prove the “hurtful” message wrong and that embracing multi-racialism will not weaken the society but instead strengthens it. “As you see in front of us, there are many in the new generation, young Malay leaders from Muda, and as the president of Muda I’d like to send this unequivocally clear message that we the new generation of Malay leaders in Muda will prove you wrong, Tun Dr Mahathir.

“We’ll prove you wrong because we, the new generation of Muda leaders believe that embracing multi-racialism will not weaken us but will only strengthen us as a country. That by embracing meritocracy we’re not killing the Malays but we’re building a more resilient new generation of Malays,” Syed Saddiq told a press conference at the party’s headquarters here.
