  • Makcik: University Graduate Girls Should Marry University Graduate Boys

    Makcik: University Graduate Girls Should Marry University Graduate Boys

    “Cik dah nampak the exchange of messages antara lelaki ITE yg nak kenal kenalan dgn pelajar NUS. Cik rasa tak salah kalau pelajar perempuan tuh reject based on tahap pendidikan.

    Ini kerana biarlah mereka yg ITE dipadankan dengan mereka yg datang dari ITE. Dan kalau yg uni tuh, biarlah dipadankan dengan lulusan universiti. Ini kerana kalau tidak, akan ada masalah dalam keluarga dari segi pemikiran.

    Cik pun ada anak perempuan yg sdg belajar diperingkat universiti. Harap DRZ tak marah, tapi kalau dia dipadankan dengan seorang yg bukan ditahap pendidikannya, takut akan ada ketidak seimbangan.”

    Adakah anda bersetuju dengan pendapat ini? Kalau tidak atau ya, mengapa? Ada pengalaman? Kongsi di sini dengan berhemah. Silakan.

  • American Working In Egypt: True Islam Rejects Violence, Don’t Blame All Muslims For Orlando Shooting

    American Working In Egypt: True Islam Rejects Violence, Don’t Blame All Muslims For Orlando Shooting

    I WORK IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

    My wife convinced me that I needed to share this. Most of you know that I work for Siemens as a Service Engineer in the Middle East. I am currently on a project in Egypt. It is a German project and I believe I am the only American here (definitely the only Texan).
    Over the last two days I have had over 20 people (Egyptians) many I don’t even know personally come and ask if my family and friends were okay. They understand the magnitude of the Orlando shootings and they simply wanted to let me know they cared.

    This morning I went out to site with a smile and a “sabah-al-kheir” (Good Morning) and the supervisor shook my hand then apologized to me for what happened in Orlando. As we talked, even more foreman and laborers began gathering around me shaking my hand. They wanted to let me know that this act is not acceptable to them as Muslims and they were “anah-aswah”…I’m sorry.

    Those who couldn’t speak english asked the supervisor to translate who in broken english let me know that they all wanted to let me know that this upset them and they hoped I would not hold all Muslims responsible. They hoped America would not blame Islam.

    This was impressive enough, but when I went to another area well away from where I was before, the same thing happened. Shaking hands, apologies, and condemnation to the shooter and the shame he has brought upon their religion. From Engineers to the young man who makes us coffee, even the guy who cleans my room; they all wanted to let me know they are angry too.

    I know that after the shootings the news and radio are probably all over this spreading fear and anger, because that is what sells. I want you to know, I spend months at a time living here and in other Muslim countries to include Saudi Arabia and it is the same everywhere. The Muslim people I meet are honest, friendly, caring, and consider you a close part of their lives with a simple shake of the hand.

    So take it from someone who practically lives here; don’t let the media or politicians sway you with their spin to win ratings and votes.

    True Islam does not accept these actions, it condemns them. Don’t hold the majority responsible for the actions of the very, very few.

  • Malaysians, Indonesians, Threatens Boycott Over Honda’s LGBT Campaign In US

    Malaysians, Indonesians, Threatens Boycott Over Honda’s LGBT Campaign In US

    KUALA LUMPUR — Several Malaysians and Indonesians have expressed outrage over Honda’s support of a US lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) pride parade, saying they would boycott the Japanese carmaker.

    American Honda Motor Company, Inc, which is the North American subsidiary of Honda Motor Company, Ltd, posted on its Facebook page last Saturday (June 18) that it would be participating in the 2016 Columbus Pride Parade in Ohio and posted a photograph of its vehicles in various colours, following the signature rainbow colour of the LGBT movement.

    “At Honda, we value diversity and inclusion of everyone. Our support for the LGBT community is a reflection of our company’s commitment,” Honda wrote.

    Many Malaysians and Indonesians, however, found issue with the automobile company’s backing of the community and posted comments saying they would trade in their Honda vehicles and stop buying from Honda.

    “I am a potential buyer who had a keen interest in your new Honda Civic, but since Honda support lgbt, you just lost a customer. I will spread this post and made you lost EVEN MORE customer,” said Facebook user called Penulis Tanpa Nama, whose post received 474 “likes”.

    Another Malaysian Facebook user, Syarifah Husna, said she would now choose Mazda over Honda, warning Malaysians that “eventually it will come to here… And last thing u know they will fund lgbt here”.

    Malaysian Facebook user Bendahara Alam Warisan said he used to be a big supporter of Honda, but now he would trade off all his vehicles and cancel two orders of a CR-V and Civic.

    “I shall never buy honda again n i shall tell all my friend dont buy honda. The least we could do to stop lgbt,” he wrote.

    Indonesian Facebook user Didi Rachmadi said “since Honda support gay, lets move to Toyota for the next car”.

    Some Facebook users, however, supported Honda’s pro-LGBT stance.

    Shafiqah Othman Hamzah told Honda to keep “spreading the love and keep making bucks”.

    “Thank you for standing up against homophobia,” she wrote.

    Facebook user Mohd Faiz said: “Dear ‘muslim’ Honda users. Please donate me your Honda Jazz. I love that car the moment I’m using it”.

    Facebook user Zanthrax Will apologised on behalf of Malaysians who posted offensive comments, saying: “We all know that LGBT are humans to [sic]”.

    Malaysia and Indonesia are Muslim-majority countries. The local LGBT communities are often targeted by Islamic officials on grounds that homosexuality is forbidden in their religion.

  • Orang Sibuk Berterawih, Pasangan InI Ditangkap Basah

    Orang Sibuk Berterawih, Pasangan InI Ditangkap Basah

    INDONESIA: Sedang umat Islam sibuk menunaikan ibadah terawih di masjid setelah seharian berpuasa, sepasang kekasih juga sibuk memadu asmara di sebuah rumah sewa di Jawa Barat.

    Pasangan itu, Ahan 35 tahun dan Lis Hermawati 29 tahun, bagaimanapun ditangkap penduduk kampung semalam (19 Jun) semasa orang lain sedang bersolat terawih di masjid.

    Serbuan ke atas mereka itu dibuat hasil daripada rasa curiga pemilik rumah sewa tersebut yang sering melihat Ahan masuk ke rumah itu semasa suami Lis tidak ada.

    Semasa serbuan dijalankan, pasangan yang pada ketika itu hampir tidak memakai seurat benang pun, cuba untuk mengelak ditangkap basah dengan bersembunyi di dalam sebuah almari.

    “Semasa serbuan dibuat rumah itu seperti tidak ada sesiapa, tetapi apabila saya memeriksa di dalam, mereka sedang bersembunyi di dalam almari,” menurut Soleh pemilik rumah tersebut.

    Pasangan itu kemudian dipaksa keluar dan hanya dengan berpakaian dalam, mereka diarak keliling kampung sebelum dihantar ke balai polis.

    Pasangan itu masing-masing sudah berkahwin bahkan semasa di balai polis, isteri Ahan dan suami Lis turut hadir.

    Walid J. Abdullah: Racism Is No Laughing Matter

    A lot of us like to share feel-good stories about seeming cooperation and tolerance, or acts of goodwill, involving people from various races. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that. In fact, it can be an extremely positive thing: if we are too mired in negativity , we may forget that there are genuinely nice and kind human beings all around us, and that we experience these acts on a regular basis.

    At the same time, some of those who wish to believe that their societies are harmonious and tolerant find it difficult to accept that racism does indeed exist, or even, that they themselves are racists. Too many times I have seen people justifying their palpably chauvinistic stances via what they think is “reasoned” argumentation.

    “Calling an Indian apuneneh is not racist, it is just a term of endearment.”

    “Saying ‘keling’ is not wrong, it has historical roots.”

    “It was just a joke, don’t be so sensitive.”

    “How is saying that Malays make good barbers and security guards racist; I joke like that with my Malay friends all the time.”

    “Believing that Malays are lazy is not necessarily racist; that is just stating a fact.”

    Next time, I hear some smart alec making a racist comment, I may just be tempted to slap the person and then say:

    ‘Don’t be so sensitive, i am just playing.’
    ‘This is my way of showing endearment to you.’
    ‘I do this to my friends all the time!’

    Racism will continue to exist, as long as we allow it to, and as long as it remains unchallenged. Whether mainfested in ‘jokes’, words or actions.
