In a sudden fit of rage, Malay Army Veterans Association president Ali Tinju has branded the Malaysian Chinese community as the "race of cheaters".
He made this controversial statement while shooting accusations at MCA leaders, that recently said the phone scam incident in Kota Raya has nothing to do with race.
"I am warning MCA leaders. Shut your mouth, don't question other races. School your own race first. Your race are cheaters," blasted Ali Tinju, over a phone interview with ProjekMMO, yesterday.
ProjekMMO is the Bahasa Malaysia, sister publication of Malay Mail Online.
Continuing his spew of insult, Ali Tinju went on to say that MCA should just leave the BN coalition and join the opposition party, so that it will be easier for "critics" to attack them

Responding to Ali Tinju's sudden hate comments against the Chinese people, MCA Youth chief Chong Sin Woon said that Ali's opinions do not represent most Malays that are known to be peace-loving, wise and moderate
Just two days ago, on Monday, 21 December, Ali Tinju made equally racially sensitive remarks about the Chinese community, calling the Chinese traders "unethical" and "irresponsible blackmailers", referring to the recent phone scam incidents

Just hours after he made that statement, he was arrested and the police obtained a two-days remand order under Section 117 of the Criminal Procedure Code
This wasn't the first time Ali Tinju is being arrested for seditious remarks. On 14 July, he was picked up by the cops for making racially insensitive comments about the Low Yat incident.
