After the Syariah legal experts’ statement saying that prospective convert need not inform their families first, Minister in PM’s Dept in charge of Islamic Affairs, Ahmad Zahid says that the converts may ONLY need to inform AFTER converting! Nasi sudah jadi bubur (No point crying over spilt milk)! The issue is how to prevent all the dubious conversion cases and misuse of religion to the convert’s favor. No point doing it after conversion since the convert can hide behind syariah law and do as he/she please., causing more heartbreak for the abandoned spouse. » Read more: Zahid says can inform after convert

These comedians based their points on the fact that:

Based on Syariah laws, there is no nas (quotations from the Quran to prove or settle a point) compelling a person wishing to convert to Islam to inform the family before doing so

Now, since the person haven’t convert yet, since when did Syariah laws need to be refered to?  This is the problem when these guys meddle in something which is not in their territory yet. This kind of forum should be held by alls the non-Muslim legals experts so that can represent the true parties – the PROSPECTIVE converts (while awake or in comatose).

Please don’t infringe on others’ rights. » Read more: JAKIM says no to convert informing kin

Good explanation by the PM. I’m sure when others come out with Ketuanan Jawa, Ketuanan Cina, Ketuanan India, Ketuanan Dayak etc., he will be supportive and appreciate the effort to make the respective races as “tuans”.

Err..if all become tuan, who is the coolie? The foreign workers?

I think that coolies should not be looked down since there won’t be masters without coolies/workers. Workers all around the world are acknowledged during Labor/Workers Day on May 1st.

So, MIC can start by announcing their Ketuanan India strategy to ensure Indians become masters, as the community have been in the coolie role since pre-independence days. » Read more: Ketuanan India anyone?

Ministry to channel funds via MARA for Pakatan led states

I’m quite surprised to hear this. I thought MARA is mainly (99% or 100%?) for Malay community, so how can funds from the Ministry is channeled to them? Does that mean that the Ministry only have funds for Malays all this while? Or is MARA’s role being expanded?

If it is the first case, that means the SEDC is for certain community only? That is quite bad. Imagine all the none PR states using funds for SEDC for benefit of certain race only. » Read more: Ministry to channel funds via MARA for Pakatan led states
