Makan Makan - My Shoe

GEORGE TOWN: The Penang Malays Congress (PMC) Secretary Mohd Noor Mohd Abdul Kader - today hit out at Perkasa members for causing the ugly Esplanade ruckus during the anti-Lynas peaceful gathering on Sunday. He condemned Penang Perkasa leader Mohd Rizuad Mohd Azudin for rudely showing a shoe to Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng when the DAP leader was leaving the place in his official car.

Mohd Noor criticised the Perkasa mob for being “un-Malay-like” in creating the disturbance at the peaceful gathering, in which two reporters were roughed up.
“Perkasa has embarrassed the Malays and insulted the intelligence of a civil society with its mob culture.

“The crowd was rude and vulgar,” Mohd Noor told FMT here today. He said he was ashamed at the ill-mannered behaviour of Mohd Rizuad, who was seen by many – and caught on cameras and videos – showing a shoe to the chief minister.

“It’s against Malay culture and custom. Malays are disgusted with Rizuad’s loutish gesture.” “Umno should blame Rizuad if it loses more votes and seats in Penang in next general election,” he added. He blamed Lim for causing the Esplanade ruckus. He claimed he was upset when Lim condemned Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak and his 1Malaysia concept in his address to the anti-Lynas crowd.

In the ugly incident, two newsmen from Kwong Wah Daily were roughed up by the mob. Besides Perkasa members, state Youth chief Shaik Hussein Mydin has confirmed that the mob included members from the Umno Tanjung division
