May 13 eyewitness: Build monument, get leaders to pledge 'no repeat'

An eyewitness to the May 13, 1969 riots proposed a monument be built in Sungai Buloh to remember the fallen victims and also serve as a site for leaders to make an annual pledge for the incident not to repeat.

Foong Yee (photo, above), who was a 24-year-old probationary police inspector when the riots happened, said this is how he thinks the country should remember what happened on that day.
