Malacca Chief Minister Idris Haron says the state of Malacca will not tolerate anyform of racism.
He said he is a “firm believer of a racial diversity and will never allow Malacca to be a breeding ground for racists and ultras."
"Our country is known for its cultural and ethnic diversities for the past 58 years...we will not tolerate any extremism in Malacca.
"This not only my stance but also of Governor Tun Mohd Khalil Yaakob to continue living as united Malaccans," CM Idris told The Star in an interview.
Idris said Islam calls for good relations between ethnicities.
"In a nutshell, Malacca is against anyform of bigotry,” he said.
His remarks comes days after the rally to “defend Malay dignity” organised by the National Silat Federation (Pesaka) and supported by Umno, in Kuala Lumpur.
Pesaka is headed by former Malacca Chief Minister Mohd Ali Rustam, who said the rally was to send a message to non-Malays not to insult Malay leaders.
The rally was also supported by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, who said Malays have been insulted far too many times to remain silent.
Najib was referring to the four Bersih rallies for clean election and cleangovernment. The latest Bersih rally last month also called for Najib's resignation.
At least 100,000 attended the Bersih 4 rally on Aug 29 and 30 while about 45,000 attended the Himpunan Rakyat Bersatu rally on Sept 16.
Earlier, Sultan Ibrahim Ismail of neighbouring Johor said racists have no place in the southern state.
