SHAH ALAM, Oct 6 — Shah Alam Member of Parliament Khalid Samad has challenged Perkasa chief Datuk Ibrahim Ali to contest the Galas state seat to prove that his group was not backed by Umno.
Ibrahim has repeatedly denied accusations that his Malay rights movement was linked to the Malay ruling party.
“If he (Ibrahim) does not contest and he campaigns for Barisan Nasional (BN), people should realise that this is Umno’s political game,” Khalid told reporters today.
“It is a good-cop bad-cop method to gain support from extreme Malay nationalists and moderate Malays,” he added.
