LIM Kit Siang is the DAP Supremo. He and other DAP leaders are very upset over the statement made by Tun Hanif Omar, a former Inspector-General of Police, that DAP after May 1969 had wanted Peninsular Malaysia be carved out into two, the eastern part for the Malays and the west for the non-Malays. Lim quickly gave Hanif an ultimatum to withdraw the statement or face legal action. Some other DAP leaders even demanded police investigation for sedition.
I would like to suggest to Lim and DAP that they refrain from taking any action against Hanif. The man who served us well over many years to protect us from communists and extremists during a difficult time in our history must be allowed to give his recollections of events that happened nearly 50 years ago.
