Negeri Sembilan Bersatu chief Rais Yatim said lessons should be learnt from the country’s past experience of accepting other races when dealing with Rohingya refugees.
Rais indicated that while they may be well-behaved when their numbers are small, this may change when their numbers grow.
“When their numbers are small right now, the Rohingya are gentle that they wouldn’t even kill an ant.
“But when their numbers are in the hundreds of thousands, they will maul us.
“It ended the same way with other races when they came during the British era in the 1920s.
“Let us learn from the history of siding with outsiders,” he said in a Twitter post.
