Despite various repeated attempts by the Malaysian Indian community, the UMNO/BN government refuses to remove the “INTERLOK” novel as a compulsory read for the Form Fivers.

Where countries are moving and building nationhood by abolishing racism, the UMNO government aided and abetted by their allies are encouraging racism to further extend their political hegemony through the artificial Malay supremacy agenda. The absence of national affinity and shared destiny for all citizens of Malaysia is clearly obvious as we can see by the arrogance of UMNO and its mandores in sidestepping the concern of the Malaysian Indian with regards to this controversial novel that promotes caste epithets, ethnic slurs, racial prejudices, and communal stereotyping in the mind of the young.

“Interlok” is nothing but an engineered plan by UMNO to further plant the seed of racism and segregation in schools and in the mind of the youths similar to the programs that are run by the BTN (Biro Tata Negara).

Tolerance and co-existence has been abused and misused, patience has been taken for granted endlessly. It is time to bury racism in Malaysia and it is the time to take the bull by the horns.

UMNO has to go. RACISM has to go.

Please join us in our march to show solidarity against racism perpetrated by UMNO and its allies.
