Interview: Part 2
The last five years have seen the emergence of criminals from a certain ethnic group who target local Chinese merchants and attack their businesses, said Selangor community policing founder Kuan Chee Heng.
The former policeman, who now operates a community service center in Puchong, said he receives an average of 10 complaints on the matter every week.
“There was a case where the people from a certain ethnic group went into a Chinese restaurant, and after they had finished their meal, they called the boss, assaulted him, put his head on the table and asked; ‘do you think this is tasty?’
“The boss out of fear said no, then the gang replied by saying; ‘then no need to pay’ and walked out.” he said.
He said this group of criminals would also go into homes and proclaim themselves as security personnel offering service.
“If the owner rejected the service, the next day his car will be smashed,” he said during an exclusive interview with Komunitikini.
Kuan stresses that he is not a racist, as he merely wants to highlight a trend that “everybody knows” but is deemed as a taboo topic by politicians.
“Government should intervene”
“Now you see the street crime is committed by what race? The Chinese are being pushed into a corner, especially the businessmen.
“Why suddenly is there the emergence of this phenomenon in the Klang Valley? Is this because of political backing, socio-economic problems or their own problems?” he asked.
He urged the government to immediately intervene to assist the ethnic group, as failing to do so will only cause them to be left behind.
“If they need some assistance, do something, help them.
“If not, they will be left out from our society very soon. Nobody wants to hire them to work, this includes even their own race,” he said.
Interview: first part- a community know its criminals best
what a racist narrow minded person! Going by that logic,you are trying to tell me the chinese NEVER rob ,killed,rape,cheat wow! let’s a spade a spade . Alright ,here is a solution.so,whenever a crime
(murder,kidnapping etc)is commit by a chinese towards an other chinese ,KEEP QUIET AND TAKE IT ON THE CHIN.since crimes are only commited by a certain races. what a silly old man! or perhaps majority of chinese are indeed racist to the core.
I agree with you Mr Kuan. The race you are trying to mention are the Indians. It is common knowledge that most crimes like snatch theft,robbery and all those associated with money. Their case is a case of survival. You see Mr Kuan, most of these criminals were born in the estates and later they were chased out of the estates when estates were converted to build houses and other buildings. They were not given land and other forms of compensation to survive. They are not given land like the Felda scheme for them to continue with their life. But sadly they chased like dogs from the estates. Hence with no place to go, they migrate to towns and become squatters. With no skills, for survival they turn to the life of crime. So Mr Kuan, whose fault is this.
