COMMENT | In response to a recent comment piece which claimed that Prime Minister Anwar’s victory speech during the groundbreaking ceremony of the so-called Madani Mosque in the temple relocation issue was both arrogant and also inviting to racial animosity, I beg to differ.
Anwar’s speech was tactical in soothing the ignorant flames of anger from the Muslim Malays.
The writer, being in another country and safely typing without any fear, did not feel the searing heat of “ignorant anger” among the Malays made worse by opportunistic politicians, social media influencers, and one hateful mufti against the Hindus.
I read many of these comments, and especially that of the mufti throwing fuel to a fire worse than whatever had engulfed Californian homes.
