In admitting Malaysia to be an Islamic state, AAB should immediately:

1. Kick out all non-Muslim political parties including MCA, MIC, PPP, etc. so as to reflect its Islamic status.

2. Invite PAS to join the government as it is a truly Islamic based political party and share the rule of this nation.

As for the non-halal food issue, this is not a new issue as it was normal during my schooling days in the 90s. If our parents were strong enough to voice their complaint at that time, my schooling days will be more meaningful. Please don’t not keep quiet, as a victim I know the damage it can do to you when you grow up later on.

I still remember how a Penolong Pengetua, THREATEN me and my classmate for NOT donating to built the school ‘dewan’. At that time, only my class alone is boycotting this event. For more then 15 years, the school had try to collect money to built a hall yet most of us wonder, why we need more then 15 years of effort to built a school hall? Is there something wrong? Hence, we decide not to donate since it was a donation, NOT a compulsory payment.

Yet one day, the Penolong Pengetua came to my class, threaten us and said “If you DO NOT DONATE (RM 10 at that time), the school will NOT allow you to take your SPM exam!” Yeah, those are the exact words coming out of a Penolong Pengetua’s mouth. However the shocking part is, no one file a complaint about it, not even my parents and we are force to ‘donate’ in the end. From that day onwards, that event change my perspective about donation and I hardly made any donation again after I enter working life.

Well, it happen in my secondary school, SMK Taman SEA, the school near Taman Bahagia LRT Station. After I left, the hall pop up suddenly out of no where after a new HM took over from the previous one. I wonder how much money those jerks took from our 15 years of donation effort.

But the Pengetua is very open-minded at that time & look only into secular disciplinary matters. Cultural events florish at that time.

10 years after, come 2004 – I met a student who says that there is only 1 (one), a single Chinese student in the whole of SMTJB!!!

Clearly, the non-Muslims/Malays are abondoning these ‘premier’ schools.

Soooo many Johorean Chinese parents are sending their children to study in S’pore schools. Why? If cannot get a place in Chinese school here – better to study there – brighter future. No Islamisation.

You’ll just love S’pore schools. Totally open-minded. Shorts for PE, no doa, no headscraves, lion-dances & cultural clubs are OK. There are even several schools where the girl’s uniform is a sleeveless gown. The skirts are also sooo much shorter – even for Malay girls. Many teachers also wear sleeveless tops/dresses to school. It’s OK. If any of our Malaysian LMN sees that – they’ll faint!!!

What if a person tells us that he had had rich experience in a particular field and knows what he is talking about, would’nt we blush? Peace.

Indonesia’s military have been seen by the population as the main bastion of the country’s political institutions, free from all sectarian tendencies and the pillar of its multi-ethnic nature.

However, the findings of a report released in 1995 indicated that some generals where “ideologically close” to some Islamic fundamentalist groups. Ever since the issue of the islamisation of the armed forces has remained at the top of the public agenda.

The idea proposed by some Islamic media outlets to allow women soldiers to wear the Jilbab, a headscarf, has found unconditional support among some politicians. According to Hidayat Nurwahid, speaker of the People’s Consultative Assembly, “if wearing the jilbab does not interfere in one’s military work, it should not be banned. Moreover, the law says nothing on the matter; therefore, it is an open field.”

Islam tells women to cover heads, says head of religious affairs office
Friday, January 18, 2008

Islam undoubtedly requires women to cover their heads, Turkey’s head of religious affairs said yesterday in a statement that coincides with the current discussions on lifting the headscarf ban in universities.

“As long as a woman says ‘I am a Muslim,’ she should cover her head,” Professor Ali Bardako?lu, president of the Religious Affairs Directorate, said in an interview with the private NTV channel.

“Discussions on the necessity of wearing headscarves or head coverings are of a legal and political nature. In religious terms, there is no doubt that they should,” he said, adding that Islamic rules, dating back centuries, are unalterable.

“Politicians may forbid or allow the wearing of headscarves,” Bardako?lu said. “It is not my duty to tell them what to do,” he added. “Whether Muslim women abide by the rule is up to their will,” Bardako?lu said, noting that the headscarf dispute can be solved with dialogue between political parties.

Karpal Singh shall be more qualified than webpage quoted by you to say turban is religous or cultural related stuff.

What Karpal said in public is turban is religious obligation for Sikhs.

You can go ask Malaysians about their perception on wearing tudung is closely related to religion or culture. Most likely the majority will say tudung is related to religious requirement.

FYI, tudong is never associated with Islam in Indonesia.

a. If only 2 % Chinese active in the army, are you expecting 30% generals are Chinese?

b. The fact is less than 0.2% applicants for police and military recruits are Chinese.
________________________________________________________

In the 60s, the Chinese and other races made up over 30% of the technical units, the combat support units, the Rangers infantry units and the Recce of our Army.

Their numbers started to dwindle in the 70s and continues to slide until now. I believe they now make up barely 1% of the total strength of the AF. Why? Its because of the government discriminitory polices against them on promotions, courses, recruitment etc. Do not believe the MOD when he says there is no discrimination and quota applied against the Chinese.

If this is the reality, why would the Chinese want to join the AF?
Do not also believe that the Chinese do not want to join because: they believe that good sons do not join the army.

====

Are you in the forces to have first-hand experience b4 talking like another ah pek?

Only two Chinese, me and another one in a cadet official (for tertiary students) recruitment exercise. Other Chinese students only interested to dream of big money earning prospect after finishing their courses.

Not every one can be promoted to higher postion eithe in private or public sector.

I have two chinese friends joined Navy about same time, one was promoted to a commanding officer in Butterworht Navy base while another one is just commading officer for a small ship.

Would you call it as discrimination against the latter one? PR skill makes them apart, one is good PR while another one is suck.

MOD is more happy to see 10-15% chinese in the army compared with current pathetic percentage. 10-15% will not affecting the balance in the armed forces.

I do not deny MOD would never allow non-bumi to be a dominant element in the Malaysia armed forces. This is also true for Singapore which would never allow Malay controls their armed forces.
