ERMATANG PAUH, Dec 1 — An Umno leader under fire for claiming that the Chinese community in Penang bought political power with ill-gotten gains today clarified that he meant to say only some of the group were involved in gambling and prostitution.
Umno Permatang Pauh division chief Datuk Mohd Zaidi Said also insisted his speech at last week’s Umno general assembly was taken out of context, and that he was focusing on poor enforcement action against all vice activities, and not specifically against the Chinese.
"What I said was sometimes, some Chinese who are not Barisan Nasional supporters became rich with money earned from vice activities like illegal gambling and prostitution, not all Chinese," he told a press conference at the Pematang Pauh Umno headquarters here today.
He emphasised the word "sometimes" (kadang-kadang), which he claimed meant only "portions" (segelintir) of the Chinese became rich from illegal gambling and vice activities.
"I did not say all Chinese in Penang and I did not mean it to become a racial issue," he said.
