DAP told to leave road signs alone

suppadmin | August 21, 2020

Leave the road signs alone and stop playing politics with racial tones.

I am most unhappy with the DAP tactics of vandalising the road signs in Kuching city. This issue sparks off a lot of unnecessary debates with racial undertones in social media which is so un-Sarawak. We dont need such politics game here so DAP, a Malayan party can do what they want in Peninsular Malaysia instead of bringing in such toxic tactics, said Batu Kitang State Assemblyman, Lo Khere Chiang.

Lo asked where in Malaysia can one find Chinese character in government buildings or on road signs? Sarawak is a multi-racial state and shows a good example to the rest of Malaysia and even the world of our unique harmony.

For decades, he said we have live together as a family and we should not let a few road signs to mar that harmony. DAP should not forget that Sarawak comprises of many other races, Chinese, Malays, Dayak, Bidayuh, Orang ulu etc…

“Let us be thankful and appreciate what we are enjoying. Let us remind ourselves not to take the peace and harmony in Sarawak for granted. Using this issue to win votes for political mileage is a stupid act indeed.

There are road signs in Mandarin characters even in sibu, Miri and other towns. Padawan also have those and it is good to have since overseas chinese tourist is a hudge market potential. No one should drag this issue into a political one. The councils take note of all public requests and act on them where appropriate. So, DAP, dont try to be clever and take things into your own hands. Don’t bring this kind of political culture into harmonious Sarawak, ” he added.
