Is it about race?

Who is being racist here?
I read that a certain newspaper had written these remarks in its daily. I am also reliably informed that the newspaper concerned belongs to UMNO. In fact it is said that the newspaper is the mouthpiece of the said party.
The said newspaper wrote “Bukan orang Cina atau penyokong Pakatan Rakyat saja yang tahu marah dan mahukan keadilan”.

“Kenapa Menteri Besar Selangor, seorang Melayu, meragui kebolehan orang sebangsanya bertindak dengan tulus dan adil?
Bukankah banyak pegawai agensi atau institusi kerajaan orang Melayu? Adakah polis, hakim, guru, penyiasat, doktor, pensyarah Melayu semuanya tidak boleh dipercayai?”
Our good friend, Minister Nazri has been telling everyone to stop making "racist" remarks with regards Teoh's death in the MACC building. Would he now tell the newspaper that belongs to UMNO to shut up as well?
Idiots! This is about a Malaysian citizen who died. Period! There is nothing racial about it at all. We all demand the truth. We all demand to know what happened to Teoh. For if a mere witness like Teoh can be interrogated until the wee hours of the morning and end up dead, don't we all need to be worried?
