Thousands rally in Kuala Lumpur from across Malaysia for anti-ICERD

Thousands of UMNO and PAS supporters travelled to the heart of Kuala Lumpur on Saturday (Dec 8) ahead of the anti-International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD) rally.

Ariana News Agency- The assembly will proceed despite the government’s announcement that it was no longer going to ratify ICERD, a United Nations Convention that condemns discrimination and calls upon states to pursue a policy of eliminating racial discrimination in all its forms.

Rally participants arrived from all over Malaysia by train, bus and air to lend their support to the cause.

Former prime minister Najib Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor, also participated in the rally.
