Hands Off SUARAM! - Amnesty International Public Statement. September 19, 2012

Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) is not amused with the excitement which comes with Obama's statement on the Malaysian election. Obama seem to have accepted the result while he did talk about irregularities. Both parties, BN and the PR, seems to be lobbying for the support from the Super power.

While PSM acknowledges that there are serious election fraud in our elections, we nevertheless do not seek foreign intervention to solve our internal issues. In the same spirit, PSM calls upon the US to hands off Malaysia. The people of Malaysia will decide the legitimacy of our own Government and we will seek changes based on the desire of the majority of the people here.

The US does not have any morale authority to talk about democracy in the world based on their own bad records. We have seen many examples of US so called interventions on humanitarian and democratic grounds, only to learn that they have a clear imperialist agenda behind them.

The US Administration only seeks to protect the strategic economic interests of global capitalists that pursue maximization of profit at the expense of ordinary people around the world.

The struggle for democracy and social justice can only be succeeded through the organised masses of Malaysia.
