Ignore SMS on gathering in Kg Baru, says Selangor MB

KUALA LUMPUR: The Indian community has been advised not to heed an SMS that claimed Hindraf would hold a gathering in Kg Baru, said Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo.
He said the messages were sent out with the intention of causing anger among the Malays and create racial tension.
“The Indian community should also ignore the messages. I hope the police will take action against those who are spreading false information,” he told reporters after attending the opening of the heritage building of the Sultan Suleiman Club by the Sultan of Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah yesterday.
“Hindraf should not provoke the Malays in Kg Baru, which was where many Malays struggled for the country’s independence and where they protected themselves during the May 13 incident in 1969.”

Hindraf An Extremist Group - Khir

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 8 (Bernama) -- Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo described the Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) as an extremist group which could destabilise the country's multi-racial population.
"I hope the Indians are not influenced by Hindraf," he said in a "live" interview on RTM1 at Angkasapuri tonight.
He said action should be taken against Hindraf to protect the country's peace adding the Selangor government had provided educational and job opportunities to all races, the Indians included.
On the destruction of the temple at Kampung Rimba Jaya, Shah Alam he said it had to be done as it was sitting on private land owned by a developer.
"We pulled it down on Nov 15, not three days before Deepavali, that too after getting a court order. Other than the temple, a surau and some squatter houses were also pulled down," said Khir.
He said the government had decided to give RM40,000 compensation for the temple relocation and was agreed by the original owner until Hindraf members took over.
"They (Hindraf) twisted the facts and incited the Indians to break the law sending ten enforcement officers to hospital," he said.
Khir said Selangor has a population of 2.5 million Muslims with 358 mosques and 1,000 suraus, 1.3 million Chinese with 1,015 Buddhist temples and 640,000 Indians with 810 Hindu temples.
"The distribution of Hindu temples are more than that for the other religions. This shows that there is no discrimination and if they say we are not fair then it is a big lie," he added.
