In October 2024,[2] Tommy Mawat Bada responded publicly to racist comments directed at him on social media after an altercation with Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) player Arif Aiman Hanapi. Following the clash, which led to yellow cards for both players, Mawat took to Instagram to call for respectful criticism, urging fans to avoid bringing race or family into their comments. He expressed pride in his Dayak heritage and addressed the racial slurs, asking his critics not to target his ethnicity and reminding them of the impact such comments have on the Dayak community. The Football Association of Malaysia is currently investigating the incident.
