Rejected petition Stop Anti-asian racism

I am devastated by the number of attacks amongst asians which has increased during this pandemic, from elderly to young children. I do not feel safe or welcomed when I am travelling alone outside anymore as I have been attacked verbally and racially.

More details

I want the Government and Parliament to raise this awareness for all the asians that has been attacked verbally or physically and make an end to this. We all bleed the same after all we are humans too.
