Malaysia PM expresses concerns ahead of protest
Malaysia’s prime minister urged ethnic Indians today to shun a protest aimed at airing their economic grievances, saying its planners were suspected of encouraging people to rebel.
The Hindu Rights Action Force, an influential nongovernment group, wants thousands of people to demonstrate outside the British High Commission in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow to highlight how Malaysia’s ethnic Indian minority has remained largely poor under both British colonial rule and the present government dominated by Malay Muslims.
