The Federation of Chinese Associations Malaysia (Hua Zong) wants Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad to act against Culture, Arts and Tourism Minister Abdul Kadir Sheikh Fadzir, who recently questioned the loyalty of Chinese Malaysians.

When contacted, its president Chong Chin Shoon said the federation - which represents 5000 Chinese-based associations and organisations from 13 states - sent a letter to the premier last Saturday.
