    Osman Sulaiman: Government Must Work For, Not Against, Singaporeans To Foster Nation Building

    The coming presidential election reserved for Malay candidates has divided the nation with some polarised views.

    Often enough, the PAP gov has been quick to accuse the alternatives as playing racial politics. But the mother of all racist policies originated and created by this gov.

    Our pride from being a multi-racial society, living side by side, co-existing happily is all but a facade that this gov would want us to believe.

    Its brand of politics is never about empowering the people but rather to divide us against each other.

    How else would we explain this?

    1. The existence of SAP schools where those who are not able to speak mandarin are not eligible

    2. The subtle exclusion of the Malay/Muslim citizens in the Navy through its hollow reasoning of not being able to accommodate space for halal diet.

    3. Its perverse reasoning that the society is not ready for a minority Prime Minister.

    4. The appalling act of discrimination through its policy to deny job opportunities for those wearing the tudung.

    5. We are further divided in schools through elitism and streaming of students at a young age.

    The society will never be able to progress as a nation until our leaders act for us. Not against us.

  • I’m Indian Muslim But Mendaki Says I’m Not Malay, Why Such Different Standards?

    I’m Indian Muslim But Mendaki Says I’m Not Malay, Why Such Different Standards?

    MP Zainal Sapari said he considers Halimah Yacob a Malay even though she is an Indian Muslim and therefore supports her to run for Presidency. But according to netizen Mohd Azmi, “Then how come students of Indian muslim father but who speak malay & behave like malay does not qualify for mendaki assistance cause mendaki considers them as indian race & not malay”.

    How does Mendaki define what is Malay? Different people different life la.

    Zainal Sapari: Halimah Yacob Is 100% Melayu

    To me, beyond any reasonable doubt, she belongs to our Malay Community.

    What constitute a Malay person? – “any person, whether of the Malay race or otherwise, who considers himself to be a member of the Malay community and who is generally accepted as a member of the Malay community by that community”.

  • A Lesson On The Malay Race On Racial Harmony Day

    A Lesson On The Malay Race On Racial Harmony Day

    There is no definitive account of who a Malay is. Historically however, Malays are known to have originated from what is known as the Nusantara region that includes Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Southern Thailand and Southern Philippines. While possessing their own languages and dialects, they generally speak Malay and in more modern times, are adherents of Islam.

    So…

    Banjarese = Malay

    Acehnese = Malay

    Javanese = Malay

    Bugis = Malay

    Boyanese = Malay

    And of course the Malays from Johor or Malaysia are definitely considered Malays.

    Chinese Muslims not equal to Malay.

    Indian Muslims not equal to Malay.

    Pakistani Muslims not equal to Malay.

  • Should Food Delivery Services Here Have 2 Delivery Boxes For Halal And Non-Halal?

    Should Food Delivery Services Here Have 2 Delivery Boxes For Halal And Non-Halal?

    China’s Meituan stirred up controversy online after announcing that it will begin offering separate logistics infrastructure for halal food, causing Chinese netizens to condemn the company for “discriminating against” non-Muslims while also worrying about the “rise of Islam” in their country.

    Meituan couriers on bikes will now be armed with two delivery boxes, a normal one for non-halal food and a smaller one for halal food. Netizens viewed the change as discriminatory and vowed that they will delete the app en masse.

    In Singapore, food delivery services like Ubereats, Foodpanda, Deliveroo and several others are the bike couriers we see day to day on the streets delivering food both (halal and non-halal) to their destinations.

    These couriers store their delivery items inside a bag with their own company name imprinted on it. They do not carry two delivery boxes like what Meituan’s is trying to implement.

    However is not clear though if the bag has compartments inside to separate non-halal from halal food. Or are there dedicated riders to deliver only halal food and only non-halal food? If not, should Singapore follow what Meituan is doing to safeguard the sanctity of minority food?

    We also know that there are Malay riders who do not mind sending orders or food that are not halal. Can we hope for a change to this in the near future?
