Penang Gerakan leader Baljit Singh has expressed surprise that his own comrade in Umno has described Gerakan as "Chinese" when criticising a local DAP man for dismantling the party's logo.

Baljit said, tongue-in-cheek, "I'm sorry to disappoint (Umno state secretary) Musa (Sheikh Fadzir), but if he really looks hard enough, he will see that I am not a Chinese."
