Will UMNO continue with its insane lies against the DAP?
DAP demands that Umno supreme council member and Deputy Education Minister Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi show proof or else withdraw and apologise for his lies that DAP is printing an astonishing 100,000 Bahasa Malaysia copies of the Bible using the word "Allah". Mohd Puad’s lies are insane and without any basis whatsoever.
Mohd Puad’s lies are insane because DAP has never been involved in religion believing that religion is a matter of personal faith for the individual that should neither be exploited nor politicised. Further DAP has neither the resources nor the ability to afford to print and distribute 100,000 copies of a Bahasa Malaysia bible. Unfortunately these insane lies by an UMNO leader was also printed in all UMNO controlled newspapers in New Straits Times, Berita Harian and Utusan Malaysia.
Puad was quoted as saying in a press conference in Putrajaya, "The opposition party(DAP) is planning to print at least 100,000 copies of the Holy Book and will be distributing it for free in several states, including Kedah and Kelantan”.
With the approaching general election, will UMNO continue with its insane lies against the DAP to win votes by accusing DAP next of being responsible for Mongolian model Shaariibuugiin Altantuyaa’s murder? DAP is disgusted with such dangerous tactics by UMNO that wants to foment hate against the DAP amongst the majority Muslim population and amongst the various religions in Malaysia.
I will direct DAP leaders to lodge police reports for action against Puad and the 3 UMNO-controlled papers tomorrow for such insane and dangerous lies to create public disorder. DAP will also consider other legal measures against Puad and the other 3 UMNO-controlled newspapers.
DAP is not so dishonest like UMNO or BN in playing dirty by not admitting its responsibility. “baling batu, sembunyi tangan”. In upholding truth and justice, DAP is willing to pay the price as we will not live a lie.
In footballing terms, BN is like Liverpool Luis Suarez - a racist, diver and a cheat, as compared to DAP willingness to openly admit of a honest mistake made under our own volition without any pressure from BN, just like Liverpool’s Robbie Fowler sense of fairplay so many years ago when Robbie protested against the referee for wrongfully giving Robbie a penalty in Liverpool’s favour against Arsenal.
