Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that: (1) the democratically-elected Government of Malaysia should condemn recent anti-American and anti-Semitic remarks by Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamed; (2) the Prime Minister should apologize and acknowledge the destructive and divisive nature of his words or, as an alternative, resign from office; and (3) the United States and Malaysia should continue to strengthen their bilateral cooperation and work to ensure the human rights of all ethnic, religious, and cultural groups.
