Korean deejay disrespectful for dressing up as monk, says Dr Wee


PETALING JAYA: The MCA president has chided a Korean deejay for his recent performance in a Kuala Lumpur dance club while dressed as a monk.

Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said that DJ NewJeansNim has angered the Buddhist community in Malaysia when he "disguised" himself as a Buddhist monk and performed at the club, which gave a wrong perception of Buddhist values and teachings.
