The US-based investment company Blackrock is being targeted for boycotts by pro-Palestine activists due to several factors, said the Malaysian chapter of the global Boycott, Divest, Sanction (BDS) movement.
It said this after Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz defended a consortium’s bid to privatise Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB).
BDS Malaysia said the movement is targeting Blackrock because it has a significant stake in companies supplying weapons to Israel, namely Lockheed Martin, RTX, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and General Dynamics.
