The Chinese Diaspora, numbering an estimated 40 million, and scattered across several countries are very much alive and thriving. Invariably, the early migrants did not have it easy. In every foreign soil they set foot on, they were subjected to discrimination, prejudice and hate mongering. Although slavery was abolished, Americans in the late 1900s were no different. The anger against the Chinese immigrants for the most part stemmed from the Chinese' willingness to work for lower pay, which had deprived the white immigrant labour as well as local labour of work.

Datuk Yip Kum Fook is very stupid and dirty to Buddha and MCA in Malaysia...MCA is very weak. Now, so many MCA members jump the party and also the Samnak Sambodhi Buddhist Temple, now the local people do not enter because they do not like the committee members, maybe the temple will no longer be one day, must be close according to our prediction.
ReplyDeleteInstead, we must inform Datuk Yip Kum Fook about opening a lawyer's office to cheat the people's money and lie to the Malaysia government about lawyer...we know you are very well, from the beginning of your business furniture and playing politics in Kepong
Many lawyers also don't like him because he is not a real lawyer...his title is a lawyer bought from a UK institution (no need to learn and practice about law)..Better close or close the office… it is a shame for Malaysia….
