SHAH ALAM, Nov 9 (Bernama) -- Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said Umno members involved in the cow head procession in front of Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah building acted as individuals.
He told Ng Suee Lim (DAP-Sekinchan) that the state government could not do anything more since some of them had been charged in court for the procession.
Ng, in his supplementary question, wanted Khalid to identify those involved in the cow head procession to protest the relocation of a temple.
About 200 people, mostly residents of Section 23, Shah Alam took part in the procession on Aug 28.
Khalid disagreed with Ng's statement that Umno was a racist party and was behind the procession. He called on the party to disband.
He said it was important for Pakatan Rakyat to show strength in representing various races and that it could administer better and with transparency.
To the original question by Yap Ee Wah (BN-Sungai Pelek) on action taken to restore racial harmony, he said the state government had considered the interest of all quarters including the right to free speech and religious beliefs.
