MIC accepts Anwar’s apology, urges leaders to be wary

PETALING JAYA: The furore of the Indian community over the word “keling” should serve as a lesson for all leaders not to trample on issues that are deemed sensitive, says MIC deputy president Datuk Seri M. Saravanan.

He said the MIC had accepted an apology from Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim for the use of the word “keling”, which had sparked outrage among the Indians for its derogatory notion.
