‘BTN has no place in a new Malaysia’


PETALING JAYA: The National Civics Bureau or Biro Tatanegara (BTN) must be abolished as it propagates the politics of “fear, hate, lies, race and religion”, claims DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang.

He said the BTN has no place in a “New Malaysia” and that it was detrimental to national interest and harmony as it encouraged racial and religious polarisation.
