Racist Saddiq Raps Hew For Calling Malays Radical For Supporting Uyghurs

---

Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman is incensed by author Hew Kuan Yew's description that the Malays are radicals for sympathising with the plight of China's Uyghurs
"He really is a 'Super Stupid Superman' [...] now he is saying Malays who supported Uyghurs are radical
"If this is not racism, I don't know what is," Syed Saddiq tweeted today

Syed Saddiq✔@SyedSaddiqSaya akan ulang pendirian saya pada tahun 2016.

Dia memang “Super Stupid Superman”.

Dahulu( 2016), kata South China SEA milik China,
Sekarang melabel penyokong Melayu yang menyokong komuniti Uighurs sebagai “Radikal”. If this is not racism, i don’t know what is

It reads: "Radical Malay youths who are concerned about the implementation of ethnic policies in Xinjiang caused them to have a negative perception of China
"This is especially in regards to China's government banning a minority of Uyghurs who are involved in a separatist movement which has threatened societal peace and harmony."The BRI comic book fell in the spotlight after former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak complained about the book being distributed in schools, leading to the Education Ministry issuing a ban
Hew has defended the comic book he authored, saying it is meant to promote a better understanding of China's BRI project
The Chinese government has placed some 1.5 million Uyghur Muslims in "re-education camps" which it claims is necessary to combat Islamic extremism
The treatment of the Uyghurs has been heavily criticised by Western democracies such as the US. However, Malaysia has been largely silent about China's treatment of the Uyghurs
Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad previously explained that this was because China was a powerful country and Malaysia's largest trading partner
At the moment, the government is tied to Beijing over BN-era projects such as the East Coast Rail Link which Pakatan Harapan had renegotiated after coming to power
Putrajaya is also still in talks with China to resolve issues pertaining to the Multi-Product Pipeline (MPP) and Trans-Sabah Gas Pipeline (TSGP) projects. - Mkini
