PETALING JAYA: Perikatan Nasional’s Youth chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari claims there are “double standards” in responding to racism in the country.
He claimed that it was unfair that national hockey player Hanis Nadiah Onn was suspended over racist remarks about a recent AR Rahman concert while Penang Deputy Chief Minister P. Ramasamy got to keep his post despite his remarks on Malay dominance in the civil service.
“Meanwhile another person, who is a Deputy Chief Minister made a statement on Malay dominance in the civil service and has remained in his role as deputy chief minister,” he said, adding that people should not be blindsided from making an evaluation.The National Sports Council and Malaysian Hockey Confederation suspended her from representing the country at the 2023 Cambodia SEA Games in May.
On Friday , Ramasamy in a Facebook post said that the Malaysian civil service was not only bloated in terms of the number of employed, but also consists of one ethnic group, predominantly the Malays. Ramasamy added that the new leadership under the concept of Masyarakat Madani cannot merely provide lip service to the one-sided nature of the civil service.
