Malay rights group Perkasa yesterday questioned the manner and nature in which the committee for inter-religious understanding has been formed and is to be supervised.

It objects in particular to Koh Tsu Koon overseeing the body in his capacity as Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, in charge of the National Unity and Integration Department.

Perkasa chief Ibrahim Ali (centre) told a press conference that it is not appropriate to place a body dealing with religious matters under a department for inter-ethnic relations.

Why is a committee that has to do with Islam under Koh? Why not under Minister in Prime Minister's Department Jamil Khir Baharom, who is in charge of Islamic affairs?" he asked.
