PETALING JAYA: The planned second red-shirt rally in Petaling Street has been cancelled on the advice of the authorities, said Malay Armed Forces Veterans Association president Mohd Ali Baharom, better known as Ali Tinju.

Ali Tinju, who admitted to being one of the organisers of Saturday’s protest, said the cancellation was to enable authorities to react to demands that more Malay traders be permitted to carry out business operations in Petaling Street.
