Perkasa wants Rev Eu Hong Seng probed for sedition

Please pray for our brother in Christ Rev. Eu Hong Seng - 1Christians

Malay rights pressure group Perkasa has urged the authorities to come down hard on the Christian pastor for allegedly questioning Article 153 of the Federal Constitution during a Christmas function on Saturday.

At a press conference in Kuala Lumpur today, Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali said Rev Eu Hong Seng (left) had allegedly questioned the rights of the Malays and Bumiputera and thus this warrants action, especially from the police. Rev. Eu Hong Seng is the senior pastor of FGT (Full Gospel Tabernacle) and president of the National Evangelical
Christian Fellowship Malaysia.

Ibrahim said this the social contract which has been agreed upon by all races when the country gained independence should not be questioned.

"We will be lodging a police report(on Thursday) following the remarks made and we want the police to take action on it by investigating and taking action under the Sedition Act 1948.

"I do not want the authorities to use the Internal Security Act on the pastor as the law would be repealed. However, they can use existing laws such as the Sedition Act to those who continue to question this," he said.

Ibrahim, who is also Pasir Mas MP, said he is not a racists by stating this, because he wanted the country to remains peaceful thus constitutional provisions on Malay rights should not be questioned.
