I have instructed my lawyers to institute criminal and civil proceedings against an UMNO blogger Syed Akhbar Ali for a defamatory tweet late last night insinuating that I am a communist and a racialist who is anti-Malay who caused the May 13 race riots.
Syed Akhbar’s tweet carried a graphic of me in the garb of Mao Tse Tung, alleging that I am “Bapa 13 Mei”, and accusing me of having caused the May 13 race riots in 1969 because of my anti-Malay statements and slogans, with a caption “’MELAYU KELUAR! APA LAGI DUDUK SINI, KITA HENTAM LU, SEKARANG KITA SUDAH ADA KUASA” LIM KIT SIANG (BAPA 13 MEI).
The graphic in Syed Akbar’s tweet alleged that I had made the following statements in the following places and dates:
1. Menggunakan slogan “Malai-Si” bermaksud “Mati Melayu”.
2. “Apa polis boleh buat, kita Raja. Buang sama polis Melayu.”
– (11 Mei 69, Bukit Bintang)
3. “Mati Melayu, sakai pergi masuk hutan”.
– (11 Mei 69, Jalan Bukit Bintang).
4. “KL sekarang cina punya”.
– (11 Mei 69, Jalan Changkat Dollah)
5. “Melayu balik kampung, melayu sekarang tiada kuasa. Sekarang kita Cina sudah control.”
– (12 Mei 69, Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman)
6. “Melayu keluar…! Apa lagi duduk sini, kita hentam lu, sekarang kita sudah ada kuasa…”
– (12 Mei 69, Jalan Khir Kampung Baru)
7. “…semua Melayu kasi habis, kasi halau semua polis.”
– (12 Mei 69, depan Balai Polis, Jalan Pudu)
8. “Apa ini Melayu, kita sudah perintah dia negeri, ini negeri bukan melayu punya, mata-mata lancau…!”
– (12 Mei 1969)
9. “Butuh Melayu, Malai si, pergi mati Melayu…”
– (12 Mi 69, Jalan Canvel).
10. “Ini negeri bukan Melayu punya, kita mahu kasi halau semua Melayu”
– (12 Mei 69, Jalan Bukit Bintang).
These are dastardly lies. Not only I have never said them (in fact, there are words and terms in this category which I had never used in my life), I was never in Kuala Lumpur from May 11 – 13, 1969 during the May 13 riots which the police Special Branch can vouch from their records.
There has recently been an escalation in the language and rhetoric of hate, intolerance, bigotry and extremism based on lies and falsehood.
Malaysians, regardless of race, religion, region, age or gender must unite and declare that they will not allow these extremists and merchants of hate, intolerance and bigotry to destroy the peace, unity, harmony and the future of multi-racial, multi-religious, multi-lingual and multi-cultural Malaysia by their language, rhetoric and politics of hate and deceit.
I call on moderate and patriotic Malaysians to unite to say No To Extremism and to have Zero Tolerance for the politics of lies and hate.
Let my decision to institute criminal and civil proceedings against Syed Akbar Ali be the first blow of decent, moderate and patriotic Malaysians to save Malaysia from extremism and to declare “Zero Tolerance for the Politics of Extremism, Hate and Lies in Malaysia”.
“The truth will out”
Without Cina support, 99% they could not able to achieve MERDEKA Independece.
Somebody used Syed’s account to defame you. This is not Syed’s writing. He’s been writing on Islam and on 1MDB, so you can guess who are the culprits who have hacked into Syed’s account.
This is a diversionary tactic. I guess the topics of 1MDB and the Mongolian are really getting on people’s nerves.
LKS, you have been the target of some unscrupulous hackers who used Syed’s account to plant the stupid statements about you. Do visit his blog. Could be the same hackers who attacked Tong (the Edge boss) about attempts to make the ringgit fall? Go find out the parties responsible and you can sue the pants off them.
Those statements made by LKS?
Come on. Tell me a better story. In fact I will believe you more if you (or tht someone who uses your name whether with or without your knowledge and consent) told me tht the Decepticons of cyberton are coming to wipe out the malay race or something like that.
what new?
Silence implies consent. Sue him if he does not disown it.
You better apologise to Syed Ali Akbar for the case of mistaken identity. Don’t be too arrogant and just keep quiet with respect to Syed, who is campaigning for Bijan’s removal. Train your guns on the real culprit in Melaka.
