MP SPEAKS | Andrew Sia is a semi-retired writer who does not have the machinery or might of Umno leaders.Umno Youth chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh’s actions are pressuring writers into silence.In contrast, Umno secretary-general Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki took a more civilised approach. He rebutted Sia with his own article entitled “Vicious slander in calling UiTM ‘apartheid academy’”. That should be the way.
Similarly, former Suhakam commissioner Jerald Joseph commented: “If you are a Malaysian, you are a Malaysian… If there are two forms of citizenship, it begs the question if there is apartheid in Malaysia.”Neither Hassan nor Jerald were using the word in the extreme and oppressive South African sense. They were referring to racial discrimination in general. So was Sia. However, Akmal chooses to focus narrowly on the meaning of apartheid as the “cruel racial segregation policy in South Africa.
