PETALING JAYA: Teach compassion and not war, MCA central committee member Saw Yee Fung says as she appealed to the Education Ministry to stop the Solidarity With Palestine Week in schools.
“If the ministry really intends to inculcate 'humanitarian values and concern for the suffering of others regardless of race, religion or social status' as conveyed in its press statement after concerns were raised by netizens and NGOs, then it should have inculcated multicultural programmes, emphasising how diversity, mutual respect, compassion, care and self-help programmes for the underprivileged irrespective of ethnicity or faith professed is the most successful model for multiracial co-existence and goodwill,” she said in a statement on Saturday (Oct 28).
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
