PETALING JAYA: Respecting religion goes both ways, deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said.
“For my religion to be respected, I must learn to respect other religions,” Zahid said at the “Pre-Gawai 2024” celebration in Sarikei, Sarawak, this evening, The Borneo Post reported.
He said if people respected each other’s beliefs, there would be peace and harmony.
Zahid also hailed the inter-racial festivals celebrated by Sarawakians, calling it a “testament to greater understanding and harmony”.
He said the racial and religious harmony in Sarawak should be emulated by all in Malaysia.
For Malaysia to become a harmonious nation, especially in view of the country’s religious diversity, politicians must put the country and the people first, he said.
They must also tread carefully when it comes to issues linked to race, religion and royalty.
