Several pro-government NGOs want the Home Ministry to take stern action against Malaysiakini for "giving publicity" to a demonstration scheduled for tomorrow night on the rise in prices of basic necessities.
 
According to 1Malaysia Veteran Army Association (PVTM) president , among the measures that can be taken include the shutting down of Malaysiakini .
 
Muhammad Ali ( in red T-shirt ) said Malaysiakini had been "promoting" the rally, which he declared was aimed at toppling the government.
 
To back his claim, Muhammad Ali showed reporters a printed copy of a Malaysiakini report quoting PAS Youth chief Suhaizan Kaiat urging the public to attend the rally.
 
" Malaysiakini should be helping the government. Must be fair in writing news. It should ask the people not to come or ask for the organisers to cancel their aims," he said at a press conference held at Dataran Merdeka.
 
Muhammad Ali also called on Malaysiakini to follow in the footsteps of Utusan Malaysia , TV3 , Berita Harian and RTM in writing news that will help the government.

He then criticised PKR director of strategy Rafizi Ramli for "slandering" Rosmah Mansor, the wife of Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.

He claimed that Rafizi had slandered Rosmah over the RM24 million ring , executive jet issue , and now the issue of her son purchasing a RM110 million condominium in the New York in the United States.

"I and my friends are disappointed with Rafizi who is too disrespectful towards Najib's wife," Muhammad Ali said.

"Why does he want to disturb another person's wife? Go and take care of your own wife," he added.
