"At last, some prominent Malays have decided to speak up to save the race and this country from becoming an Isis state.
"Better late than never, and I hope they will follow up their public statement with more assertive and effective activities to stop the rot," Zaid said in a blog posting today.
The 25 eminent Malays include former ministry secretary-generals, judges, ambassadors and academics.
