Select Wisely and Reject Politicians and Political Parties that use Race and Religion in their Electoral Campaigns

Pusat KOMAS is disappointed with the recurring use of race and religion by politicians and political parties in their electoral campaigns. Based on the recent statement released by Architects of Diversity (AOD), at least 17 uses of the race and religion card were detected in the 15th Melaka state election campaign.

Good Start, More to do to Walk the Talk

The recent racially charged statement made by a ruling party government-affiliated political party member against a national badminton player was uncalled for. It goes against the spirit of the recently announced ‘Keluarga Malaysia’ concept by the Prime Minister, the social cohesion that we have been working to build and sportsmanship altogether.

Looking forward for an inclusive “Malaysian Family”, Mr. Prime Minister

The Covid-19 pandemic which was exacerbated by the recent political instability has brought Malaysia to a standstill, impacting all Malaysians regardless of their race and religion negatively. Now that the political situation in Malaysia has been “resolved” temporarily, we in Pusat Komas are hopeful that the newly minted Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri will be sincere in his efforts to steer all Malaysians, regardless of their race and religion out from this pandemic.
