UMNO denies 90% Indian scrap metal operators licenses: Police, DOE, DBKL harassment and forced to close shop

We welcome the UMNO controlled MACC in arresting ten including six policemen and three Department of Environment Investigating officers for allegedly soliciting money from scrap metal dealers.

UMNO should similarly also get the MACC to also investigate the hundreds of Indian scrap metal dealers being harassed for bribes on a weekly basis, alternatively by the police, Department of Environment, (DOE), DBKL, the various City, Municipal and District Councils to the point that some scrap metal operators had to close shop.

To compound matters UMNO grants the local most often corrupt police force the power to issue scrap metal licences and at the same time also requiring consent letters from the often corrupt fire services department, DOE, local councils and a few more authorities.

Almost all these Indian scrap metal dealers have deliberately been abused by UMNO’s racist, religious extremist and supremacist policies for the simple excuse that a number of theft items are being handled by these Indian scrap metal dealers.

If only the police were above board and not themselves “partners” in crime and diligently discharge their duties then there should be no excuse for UMNO to unduly deny these Indian scrap metal operators their due licenses.

This level of UMNO’s racism, religious extremism and supremacy does not exist in any other part of the world except in Malaysia.

Give the Indian scrap metal operators their licence, and for car wash, petty trading food stalls, petrol stations like Petronas, Shell, Esso, Mobil and franchise outlets like KFC, Mc Donalds, Ayamas, Sturbucks, Burger King, Coffee Bean and all other business licences and in return crime, gangsterism and violence among especially the Indian youths will be reduced by 90%.

But UMNO will refuse to do this under their racist religious extremist and supremacist policies. And UMNO would rather get their Polis Raja Di Malaysia to gun down mere Indian suspects or arrest, beat up, falsely prosecute and force these Indians to plead guilty, so much so that the Indians form an estimated 60% of the remand and prison occupants when they form only 8% of the population.
