‘Sarawak Report coverage a colonialist conspiracy’


KUALA LUMPUR: The Sarawak Report’s coverage on 1Malaysia Development Bhd has been branded a colonialist conspiracy by Pertubuhan Minda dan Sosial Prihatin, which says it is aimed at causing unrest.

The group gathered at the British High Commission office yesterday to hand over a memorandum criticising British national Clare Rewcastle-Brown, the founder of the website.

The organisation’s bumiputra affairs chief Mohd Faizan Alias said the British colonised Malaysia before and could be trying to destabilise the country to do so again.

He said foreigners had no right to meddle in Malaysia’s affairs, which should be dealt with internally.

About a dozen members of the organisation were seen outside the office holding a banner that read “Clare, stay away from Malaysia”.

The group’s four-page memorandum addressed to British Prime Minister David Cameron was handed over to the high commission’s security manager Gurcharan Singh Sangkar Singh.
