Respect religious differences: Msia deputy PM
|
[Straits Times] DEPUTY Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin called on Malaysians to respect religious differences among the people, saying mutual respect is a prerequisite for a harmonious living.
'Tolerance should continue to be practised so that the country can continue to enjoy peace and stability,' he said in a statement in conjunction with the Thaipusam festival on Thursday. Saying that tolerance was a two-way process, Tan Sri Muhyiddin reminded Malaysians to understand and take into consideration the sensitivities of other races so as to reflect the genuine spirit of tolerance.
'I am confident that by practising the 1Malaysia concept, which is acceptance and openness towards one another, we will be able to strengthen relations among the races and enhance understanding among us,' he said. Tan Sri Muhyiddin and family also extended greetings to all Hindus and wished them a Happy Thaipusam.
