To keep you up to date…Nazri said Allah can be used by Federal Territory…but not in Selangor.
I guess he must have found out…FT voters…no hope for UMNO…and saying that ..to protect the Sultan of Selangor comment?
And right now…the Sultan’s company was revealed to be awarded with the RM500 million overpriced mosque in Shah Alam?
Why is he keeping quiet with so many waiting for his explanations?
Yes…it seems..money can buy Sultans loyalty too …to UMNO…just like their loyalties to the Japanese invaders..in the name of saving the citizens.
What high moral Sultans we do have.

MGR1940….Smart idea that will not work.
Try harder.
Why should Judge Lau Bee Lan resign?
If she is sacked or life being made difficult by Najib…that is another story.
No …she should stay put…to show real brave judges are plenty that cannot be bought or sold..to betray real justices pronounced.
I am sure…UMNO buggers must have found out…she is not a Christian too.
You know…how fast UMNO can work on anything to favours them.

Onlooker Politics have the patience to teach Chengho…an established worn from BN….no shame to keep hero worshiping UMNO at all.

Dr. Chen,
I think you or LKS should advice judge Lau Bee Lan to resign to keep up her dignity and show the world what this country is about.
I am sure every non-muslim will start contibuting every month to pay any losses if occures due to her resignation.

chengho,
The Swiss has chosen the building model of cathedral as the theme shape for town planning in Switzerland, just like you Malay people have chosen Islam as your official religion.

The French wanted to prevent terrorist attack therefore noone is supposed to wear head scarf (tudung) covering their face in the public places, but they don’t care what you wear or what you don’t wear at your own home.

However, our Home Minister was doing too much by saying that a Catholic cannot worship “Allah” in Church or at home when they speak the Malay Language! A typical tyrannic rule!

One ought to be able to laugh at the absurdity of it. But the message is one of ignorance, religious and racial prejudice and political opportunism…..
This carries two main dangers. The first is the continuing large scale exodus of capital and of talented non-Malays….A longer term danger….will generate secessionism in the Borneo states.

The act of banning the usage of “Allah” by non-Muslims in Malaysia by the UMNO-led government is GROSSLY ABSURD.

This is a case where….. someone from another religion ‘prescribed’ to another person of a different religion on ‘how he should/supposed to address his God… or how he should pray’

This is crystal-clear example where the majorities bully the minorities…… sort of jungle law.

Is this ‘Religious Bully’…. an act which is ‘Halal’ from Islamic perspective?

Dr Chen, the majority of right thinking muslims in this country are not silent but are silenced, gagged if you like.

Any muslim who does not toe the UMNO line is dealt with harshly by PDRM, Riot Squad, JAIS, etc, etc.

How they treated even highly learnered muslim like Former Perlis Mufti Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin is just one of many, many examples.

Instead of playing the religion-card, the government should focus on the national economy before it loses steam and collapses. According to reports, Malaysia had the largest outflow of foreign funds among South East Asian countries in 2009.

The government’s insistence on prohibiting non-Muslims to use the word “Allxh” will alienate foreign investors who perceive Malaysia as a hardcore fundamentalist Islamic country associated with terrorist activities. The government’s unwise action will drag the national economy into doldrums or even into a tailspin.

Only UMNO is not happy.In fact UMNO is trying to fan racial disharmony,thinking the general Malays will fall for their trap.In fact Malays are more educated now and can see that UMNO is a ticket for not Halal wealth.

Ah, The Silent Majority! I remember President Nixon (villain of sorts) claimed the support of the “silent majority”.

To be effective, the silent majority must make itself heard. I agree that muslims who support the High Court decision should make themselves heard. This is a matter of conscience.

Where are the list of names of those Malay who are confused by the usage of the word “Allah” by the “non-MALAY”.

This is obviously not a religious matter

Okay ! perhaps somehow the word “Allah” has the magic of turning Malay into Christian.

Show us it is not just a hypocrisy, by stamping all Malays’ Passport with “Not Permit to travel to All countries” in place of “NOT PERMITTED TO TRAVEL TO ISRAEL”

Drop the appeal and issue warning ..” ISA for those who raise the issue again ”

As least then, we malaysian would be proud of the “MALAYSIA BOLEH!”
