KUALA LUMPUR: The proposal to nominate Chinese new villages in Selangor to be given Unesco World Heritage Site status should not be turned into a racial issue, says Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

He said this matter which was still in the proposal stage was not 'healthy' to be played up as an issue because it was seen as a matter that did not provide any benefit to the harmony of society in a multiracial country.
