DAP chairperson Lim Kit Siang has asked Pahang Menteri Besar Adnan Yaakob to apologise for implying that gambling is a way of life of Chinese Malaysians, even in the 21 st century.

"It is most shocking that Adnan made the insensitive, offensive and insulting remark o­n opium-smoking and implying that gambling is a way of life of Chinese Malaysians in the 21st century", Lim said in his speech at the Cheras DAP anniversary dinner in Kuala Lumpur last night.

Speaking in Kuantan o­n Monday, Adnan revealed that the Federal Government had issued a licence for a second casino in Malaysia at Colmar Tropicale Resort in Bukit Tinggi. The first o­ne is at Genting Highlands. Both are located in the state of Pahang.
