Fear against ‘Malay Proclamation Rally’ unfounded, says Dr M


KUALA LUMPUR: After the planned “Malay Proclamation Rally” could not be held, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, one of its prime movers, says the fear of those against the Malays gathering to hold a discussion on their plight and corruption is unfounded.

The former prime minister took issue with the four cancellations of venue bookings for the event originally scheduled for yesterday, saying that all the participants wanted to do was to get together to sign a “Malay Proclamation” stating the “dire situation of the Malays in the country”.
