I fought alongside Indians, Chinese, Sikhs, Ibans, Eurasians\u2026 they spilled their blood for this country. I will not listen to any more of this. Brendan stays.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that the vocal directors were stunned into silence and bowed their heads \u2013 perhaps in embarrassment, perhaps in shame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That was Tan Sri Ghazali Che Mat.
