Dude.. This is not only first time for DAP to do it. I remembered
sometimes ago when some DAP big shot make a big news out of some
Chinese kena saman in one village. When anyone who can just make a
simple calculation will be able to find out that the numbe rof saman
those villagers got is more a less the average numbe rof saman everyone
is getting over here. So don't blame other when they continue to see
DAP as just jaguh kampung for Chinese.

Without looking at the text of the relevant press release or speech
from the DAP MP or spokesperson, I can only wonder whether it is the
DAP or perhaps you who is considering the "race" of the person getting
the summons to be the relevant issue. Is is that DAP cares only about
Chinese people or that whenever they speak out on an issue that
affects Chinese constituents of theirs, you automatically see that
through a racial rather than constituent service prism? I seem to
remember one Lim Guan Eng getting into considerable trouble for his
efforts on behalf of a Malay constituent, and having insult added to
injury by being blamed for getting involved with Malay issues that
were supposedly none of his business, simply because as a Chinese man,
he is somehow expected to care only about Chinese issues...

Best,
