Ismail Sabri calls for Al Jazeera apology over 'unethical and deceptive' documentary
CORONAVIRUS | Defence Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob today hit out at Al Jazeera for being unethical in producing what he described as a deceptive documentary over the government's handling of the undocumented migrant population during the Covid-19 outbreak.
In a daily press conference from Putrajaya, Ismail said that what was reported in Al Jazeera's 101 East documentary episode called Locked Up in Malaysia's Lockdown was a lie as the government did not specifically target migrants, but everyone located in those areas specifically hit hard by Covid-19.
Saifuddin, just because Malaysia is a multi-racial country does not mean it does not have racist policies. As a matter of fact many of its policies are racist. Malaysians are brought up to be racists precisely because of government policies and the politicians harping on race. Note the furor that was raised the last time when the Lord President, Attorney General and Finance Minister did not happen to be Malay Muslims. And also the coup that toppled the PH govt was staged because certain groups wanted a govt that is overwhelmingly dominated by Malay Muslims. To claim that the Malaysian govt is not racist is to practise self deception.
Kalau fitnah, tunggu apa lagi ... saman lah, big mouth !
