SHAH ALAM, Feb 22 Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad voiced worry currently which the mushrooming of Malay as well as Muslim rights groups could further erode Malay togetherness as well as turn the village in to the minority in their own country.

The former budding minister warned which this could outcome in Malays losing all their rights as well as ownership, as well as forcing them to turn even some-more dependent on others.

In reality, you have been still the lowest village in this country. We do not seek to squeeze the rights of others... you usually seek our rights.

But if you have been split, you turn weak, as well as afterwards our properties would be owned by others, he told the press conference today.

Dr Mahathir was commenting on yesterdays launch of Jati, the Muslim NGO led by former PAS personality Datuk Hasan Ali, which seeks to turn the saviours of the faith by defending Islam, Malay rights as well as Malay Rulers (IMR).

Dr Mahathir, who is patron to Malay rights group Perkasa, said Hasan should insist in item Jatis inlet as well as state either it is domestic or quite religious. He afterwards reiterated his concern over some-more groups in the Malay community.

Maybe it (Jati) is to insist religion, afterwards he could do so, but I do not like anymore parties which split up the Malays who have been already split in three... now, four, five, six... until they turn the minority, he warned.
