Johor opposition has lodged a police report against a protester who hurled racist remark against DAP by calling the party ‘babi‘ (pig).

DAP, PKR and Amanah condemned the seditious and provocative statement, which they said can threaten racial harmony.

Identifying the protester as Ashikin Yunus, 52, who resides in Pasir Gudang, the parties lodged their report at the Sri Alam district police headquarters based on a video clip in KiniTV.

“Her statement was full of foul language. This does not reflect the good nature of Malaysians, as well as the decorum and decency as outlined by Rukun Negara,” they said in a joint statement.

In the video clip, the woman warned DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang by stating that the land belongs to the Malays, and those who were granted citizenship does not mean they enjoy the same rights because they are still an immigrant.

“Becoming a citizen does not mean that we enjoy the same rights. We knew long time ago that an immigrant is still an immigrant.

“DAP pig is ‘babi‘,” Ashikin had said.

The opposition called for stern action against those who were involved as a deterrent to others.

They urged political organisations, particularly Johor Umno, NGOs and the rakyat to reject such narrow-minded remarks.
