00:00Stop moralizing the issue of breweries fundraising for Chinese schools.
00:07This is what former law minister Zaid Ibrahim had to say about the reaction of UMNO and
00:11PAS leaders on the matter, adding that they get angry about issues that don't affect
00:16them.
00:17He argued that receiving such funds is necessary for these schools as they receive little government
00:21funding.
00:22Zaid added that there are other pressing issues faced by the Malays, such as drug addiction
00:27and infidelity, which their leaders should focus on instead.
00:31He also highlighted concerns about sexual assaults in schools and the supervision of
00:35religious schools, accusing Malay leaders of neglecting their communities' real problems.
00:40Fundraising for Chinese medium schools became contentious after PAS criticized a deputy
00:44minister for accepting a RM3 million mock cheque bearing the Tiger Beer logo at a fundraiser.
00:51UMNO Youth Chief Dr. Akmal Saleh had defended Education Minister Fadlina Siddiq after criticism
00:56from DAP's Lim Guan Eng, saying the government's policy on banning such contributions was to
01:01protect racial and religious sensitivities.
