Petaling Jaya MP Maria Chin Abdullah has reminded the government that undocumented migrants were neither animals nor criminals, but human beings.
PETALING JAYA: PKR’s Maria Chin Abdullah has slammed an advertisement published in the National Security Council’s social media encouraging the public to report on undocumented migrants, labelling it “totally unacceptable and disgraceful”.“They are neither animals nor criminals but undocumented migrants. They are human beings,” the Petaling Jaya MP said in a statement.
Maria warned that such a tactic would force millions of undocumented migrants to go deeper into hiding.Maria added that the advertisement showed that the current administration, especially Hamzah, did not understand the concept of herd immunity.Migrants and refugees, she said, need to be assured that they will be protected and will not be arrested when they come forward to get screened or vaccinated.
According to the advertisement, the public was encouraged to report details, such as the location and number of undocumented migrants at a particular location.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
