Ibrahim Ali的红包

这位伯伯，利用钱来买华人的心。还是有这么多贪心的先生太太去吃喝一顿，然后领白色压睡钱。
我觉得这位伯伯还好啦，只是跑政治路线的人都需要玩种族的游戏。
基本上，我不赞成什么新春大团拜，给你免费的吃喝，加上红包，当然都是具有政治目的的。


Ibrahim Ali dishes out RM10,000 in 'angpow'

Some 300 senior citizens and residents received a boon at Perkasa's first Chinese New Year open house today as close to RM10,000 was handed out.

Leaders of the right wing Malay pressure group handed out the season's angpows in uncharacteristic white envelopes, even if in Chinese tradition white packets are reserved for funerals.

And when the envelopes ran out, they directly dished out the cash.

===================================

Perkasa today hosted its first-ever Chinese New Year open house, which kicked off with an impassioned speech by Ibrahim telling invited Chinese guests that his group is not a racist organisation.

He charged that Perkasa had been grossly misunderstood in the past, and declared today’s gathering as proof that the Chinese community understood the group’s goals.

“Perkasa is not racist, but we are an organisation that fights for the unity of all Malaysians. We are defending the Constitution, just as Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tan Cheng Lock, and V. Sambathan did,” Ibrahim told a 350-odd crowd of mostly elderly Chinese.

Ibrahim said that he invited senior citizens from the Tiong Hua community as well as Chinese reporters, and that their presence proved that Perkasa is not racist.

“We want Malaysia to be peaceful and prosperous. Gong Xi Fa Cai! 1 Malaysia!” exclaimed Ibrahim to loud cheers from the crowd.

He later told reporters that he has been secretly meeting Chinese community leaders for the past few months, and that their response has been “encouraging.”

“They know who I am. When I shook hands with the elders of the Tiong Hua community, they say they see me in the papers. They know me,” said Ibrahim, who even engaged an interpreter who repeated his speech in Cantonese to the audience.

Ibrahim also said that Perkasa gave out a total of RM10,000 in cash via white ang pow packets to the elderly as well as others who attended today although the Chinese only use white envelopes for funerals.

“Perkasa is cash-strapped. Our celebrations are not grand, so this is what we can do,” Ibrahim said.

Many other familiar faces from Perkasa were also present including secretary-general Syed Hassan Syed Ali. Perkasa deputy president Datuk Abdul Rahman Abu Bakar wore a changshan, a traditional Chinese costume.
