Indian Trader Marginalised

The Star, 22nd Nov 2009
The Star reports that an Indian trader who has been operating a mini market for 31 years which includes selling fish and vegetables was denied his license on the grounds that he refuses to move his business to a new market located at the edge of the woods. The trader says other provision shops too sell fish and vegetables but their licenses are renewed. This is a clear case of racial discrimination and an attempt by the racist Administration to reduce Indians in business bymaking them fail.
The Human Rights Party would like to remind the relevant authority that trading licenses cannot be denied to Malaysians, it can merely be regulated, and that too in non discriminative ways.
