Quote:. Calls Palestinian resistance to Israel a ‘legitimate right’
How about non-bumi’s resistance to ‘bumi’s right’.
Why are all the non-bumi large profitable companies and banks taken over?
What are the non-bumi rights?

Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reiterated Palestine’s right to defend itself, and said the Southeast Asian nation will continue its relationship with Hamas irrespective of U.S. pressure.
U.S. efforts to restrict external parties from supporting Hamas are unilateral and Malaysia will not recognize it, Anwar told Parliament on Tuesday. “Whatever happened is the legitimate right and struggle of the Palestinian people,” he said.
Anwar was responding to a question from an opposition lawmaker, who had sought the government’s stance on the U.S. House of Representative’s Hamas International Financing Prevention Act.
The bill was approved on Nov. 1 and imposes sanctions on foreign persons, agencies and governments that assist Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, or their affiliates.
Hmm...
How about Foreign Manufacturer investors in Malaysia. Will their export to US be affected? 🤔

No, sanctions don't work like that.
But US can up taxes for import from Malaysia's manufacturer.
Or even ban Malaysia's export to US for certain categories of goods/servive, inview of national security.
So it is up to investors in Malaysia to decide to stay put or leave.

The PM of Malaysia supports a terrorist organization. This is what happens when a country has institutionalised racism - the 4th or 5th tier of talent rise to become Ministers while the 1st, 2nd and 3rd tier of genuine talents have gone to greener pastures in S'pore and the West. LOL!

Analysis: A war of opinions brewing in Malaysia and Indonesia over impact of anti-Israel boycotts
Analysts say boycotts on alleged pro-Israel businesses are unlikely to directly impact the hostilities in Gaza, although they can be a moral support for the cause.

This sounds really scary. If this happens, we must always be on alert.
