Academic Tajuddin Rasdi has schooled Umno Youth chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh on the usage of the term “apartheid” after the latter took exception to a Malaysiakini columnist’s description of Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM).
Citing the Cambridge Dictionary, the UCSI University lecturer pointed out that while the word “apartheid” originated from the Afrikaans word for South Africa’s system of institutionalised racism, the word is also used in the English language to refer to discriminatory policies more generally.
