    Malaysia Tidak Berhasrat Bawa Pulang Ketua Militan ISIS Asia Tenggara, Muhammad Wanndy

    Malaysia tidak berhasrat untuk membawa pulang jenazah ketua militan ISIS Asia Tenggara Muhammad Wanndy Mohamed Jedi yang disahkan terbunuh di Syria.

    Demikian menurut Timbalan Perdana Menteri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

    Bagaimanapun, beliau berkata keluarga Muhammad Wanndy boleh berbuat demikian dengan perlu berbincang dan berurusan dengan pihak berkuasa di Syria.

    “Kerajaan Malaysia dimaklumkan oleh pihak risikan antarabangsa berkenaan kematian Muhammad Wanndy dalam satu serangan dron.

    “Kerajaan Malaysia tidak ada perancangan untuk membawa pulang jenazahnya. Pihak keluarga (Muhammad Wanndy) boleh berbincang dengan pihak berkuasa di sana (Syria) (untuk membawa pulang jenazah),” katanya.

    Encik Ahmad Zahid yang juga Menteri Dalam Negeri Malaysia dan kini dalam rangka lawatan kerja tiga hari di Australia bermula Ahad lalu, berkata demikian kepada wartawan Malaysia hari ini ketika ditanya tentang warga Malaysia itu yang dilaporkan terbunuh dalam satu serangan di Raqqa, Syria pada 29 April lalu.

    Ketua Polis Negara Khalid Abu Bakar mengesahkan perkara itu di laman rasmi Twitter semalam selepas membuat penelitian terhadap maklumat yang diperoleh.

    Pada 29 April lalu, berita kematian Muhammad Wanndy viral di laman sosial selepas isterinya Nor Mahmudah Ahmad, 28 tahun, memuat naik status dalam laman Facebook memaklumkan suaminya itu meninggal dunia dalam satu serangan dron.

  • Nasi Arab Unik Di Melaka – Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur

    Nasi Arab Unik Di Melaka – Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur

    MELAKA: Hidangan di sebuah kedai makan yang menjual nasi Arab mungkin kedengaran agak pelik namun pasti melekat dalam ingatan.

    Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur adalah salah satu menu menarik yang dijual di Kedai Sawit Corner, sebuah kedai makan yang terletak di bawah rimbunan pokok kelapa sawit di Solok Duku, Alor Gajah, Melaka.

    Lokasi kedai yang bersebelahan Tanah Perkuburan Islam Mualim di Solok Duku itu mencetuskan idea kepada para pemiliknya untuk menjadikan nama hidangan unik itu sebagai satu jenama.

    Kedai itu diusahakan sejak enam tahun lalu oleh Nabila Asyyiqin Marzuki, 25 tahun, dan suami, Mohamad Khairul Azwan Md Ramli, 28 tahun, selain dibantu saudara mereka, Muhammad Hayad Norazman, 25 tahun, lapor laman Berita Harian Malaysia.

    Menurut mereka, keputusan untuk menjenamakan hidangan Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur itu dibuat setelah menerima banyak pertanyaan tentang lokasi kedai.

    “Kami mengusahakan kedai makan ini sejak 2006 dengan menjual cucur udang, bakso, mi kari, laksa dan cendol sebelum menambah gulai kawah itik, daging dan kambing pada tahun 2009, diikuti nasi Arab pada 2011.

    “Penambahan juadah dibuat supaya pelanggan mempunyai pilihan kerana bukan semua mahukan hidangan alas perut, sebaliknya yang mengenyangkan untuk perjalanan jauh,” Cik Nabilah Asyyikin memberitahu Berita Harian Malaysia.

    Menurut catatan di laman Facebook Sawit Corner, Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur adalah nasi Arab yang dihidangkan dengan daging kambing berempah.

    Ia turut menjadi hidangan pilihan ramai pelanggan, dengan salah seorang daripadanya menyatakan: “Kalau akak mati hari ini pun akak reda dan puas sebab akak dapat makan nasi Arab. Sedap sangat.”

    Cik Nabilah Asyyikin berkata kedainya turut menyediakan Nasi Kambing Kat Kubur dengan ayam atau kambing, set dimakan seorang ataupun keluarga.

  • Oxford Study In Malaysia: For Malays, Being Malaysian Equals Being Malay

    Oxford Study In Malaysia: For Malays, Being Malaysian Equals Being Malay

    KUALA LUMPUR, May 5 — National identity and what it means to be Malaysian hold different meanings to Malays and non-Malays, according to a research paper sponsored by the CIMB Foundation.

    The study by Oxford University found that while respondents from the three major ethnic groups (Malay, Chinese, Indian) identified more strongly with their ethnic identities rather than a national one, Malay respondents believed that there was little difference between “being Malaysian” and being Malay.

    It added that integration efforts by the government, such the 1Malaysia concept, may not be successful in its intention as different ethnic communities had varying ideas as to what being Malaysian was.

    “Speaking in terms of being Malaysian to a Malay audience may not promote integration, and could potentially hinder it. More research is necessary to replicate and further investigate the relationships between these variables,” it added.

    By associating the Malaysian identity with being “Malay”, the researchers said that this could in the long run create “negative consequences”, as non-Malays may then view their contributions to the national identity as being disregarded.

    The study added that by assuming the Malaysian identity as being Malay, there was also a risk of it being perceived as an exercise in assimilation rather than integration.

     

    In its recommendation, the study said that the government should rethink its 1Malaysia policy.

  • Malaysia’s Islamic Battle Takes A Heavenly Path

    Malaysia’s Islamic Battle Takes A Heavenly Path

    In the Islamists version of hell, that is the one in Malaysia, voting against the PAS is a vote to hell.

    This is part of the campaign to promote a united PAS-UMNO front in Malaysia, and the elite of the Islamist party are going national in their attacks against Muslims who are resistant to the idea.

    “It is important to unite PAS and UMNO in order to eliminate the DAP,” says a WhatsApp group message.

    The group – unknown since the name is not published on the posting in a pro-opposition Facebook page – changed its Icon to that of a PAS-UMNO hand shake.

    The message continue: “If you want to enter hell, you can vote DAP.”

    But if you wan to enter paradise.”Vote PAS”

    The message does not end there.

    It goes further into declaring – similar to an Islamic edict or Fatwa – that people who does not vote the PAS will be made ‘kafir harbi.”

    The threats are not new in Malaysia.

    On 23 June 2016, the Mufti of Pahang shocked Malaysians by stating that it is a sin for Muslims to support the Democratic Action Party (DAP), which he labelled as Kafir Harbi (infidels against whom war can be waged).

    The statement received mixed reactions from the Muslims: some voiced their support while many opposed it. For non-Muslims, it became a source of fear, given recent threats announced by the Malaysian Islamic State (IS) based in Syria, and the first bombing incident by IS in Malaysia.

    Following the overall rejection of the labeling by Muslim scholars and intellectuals who claimed that the label was invalid and unsuitable under contemporary circumstances, the Prime Minister’s Office announced that no Malaysians should be placed under the Kafir Harbi category.

    There is in Malaysia an unfortunate practice of using the term Kafir Harbi for political reasons, and for demonising certain opposition political parties and certain non-Muslim groups.
