    A Different Perspective, An Ally To The Cause: Non-Muslims Showed Greater Understanding And Respect

    Among netizens that responded to the non-halal issues of the bazaar at Geylang Serai include of course our non-Muslim friends too.

    If we did not care to notice, our Malay brothers and sisters may not have seen the way non-Muslims view the matter. Which is actually very heartening.

    For Geylang bazaar in Ramadan to be free of non-halal food, the cause may be closer to the hearts of Muslims, however for the non-Muslims the issue do concern them too and this is what some have came out to say.

    They showed greater understanding and respect for halal requirements. Salute!

    As such, there exist the need to observe halal dietery requirements of bazaars operating in the month of Ramadhan targeting at Muslims. And these are indeed prime examples of how diversity should be celebrated in our multi religious and multiracial society in Singapore.

    Best of all, most Muslims and non-Muslims share this common believe.

  • Commentary: Boycott Geylang Bazaar? Rising Rental And Non-Halal Food Are The Critical Reasons

    Commentary: Boycott Geylang Bazaar? Rising Rental And Non-Halal Food Are The Critical Reasons

    Bazaar Ramadan…

    Part1
    Sewa gerai makan= $17000
    Sewa gerai jual pakaian= $7000
    Tahun demi tahun, sewa gerai semakin tinggi. Tauke gerai buat bidding, kes tamak nak mampos. Tahun depan confirm naik lagi. Peniaga melayu semakin berkurangan kerana tak mampu bayar sewa yg tinggi. Dulu sewanya tak setinggi macam ni, dulu ramai peniaga melayu tapi kurang pembeli. Masa tu ramai yg cuma lalu lalang see see look look. Peniaga musiman jadi serik nak meniaga. Sekarang peniaga melayu semakin berkurangan, kita pula complain. Kesian pada peniaga melayu, tak berniaga kerana sewa yg mahal. Perit orang kita tak rasa. Adat berniaga ada pasang surut. Untuk elak dari benda ni berlaku, kalau orang Melayu bersatu hati, kita boikot bazaar geylang kasi tauke rugi. Kalau takde penyewa gerai, tauke gigit jari. Biar dia bayar hutang bank sendiri. Kita belanja aje kat Joo Chiat dan pasar Geylang. Kasi untung peniaga tetap yg dah bertapak bertahun2 kat situ. Takde bazaar takpe, Geylang tak ‘berseri’, tak best pun takpe. Yg penting kita ajar sama itu tauke. Abih macam mana peniaga melayu nak berniaga? Online kan ada. Peniaga gerai makanan boleh buat kat bawah blok, yg tu betul Bazaar Ramadan. 100% makanan halal.

    ———————————————————————————————

    Sambungan bazaar Geylang…
    Part 2
    Semalam dah draft tapi hold dulu. Nak tembak kena save peluru.

    Menang bidding= $1.79m
    Paling murah 1 gerai= $7k
    900 gerai= $7k x 900= $6.3m
    Tauke untung= $6.3-1.79= $4.51m
    Peniaga untung atau tak, tauke gerai tetap untung $4.51m, untung peniaga bergantung pada sales. Kalau rugi, peniaga tetap kena bayar sewa harga $7k dan lebih. So orang peniaga Melayu kena pandai, boikot besar besaran, kalau tauke menang bidding, tapi takde penyewa, dia tetap kena bayar duit bidding $1.79m. Kalau bazaar Geylang jual babi pun, biarkan aje sb menteri2 kita tak halang. Its ok sb itu bukan tempat Melayu/Islam lagi. Kalau dia hutang bank, itu pandai2 dia settle dgn bank. Kita jangan jadi barua pada tauke macam ni.

  • Alternative Return Flights Arranged For Singaporeans In Mecca; May Be Used For Future Pilgrimages

    Alternative Return Flights Arranged For Singaporeans In Mecca; May Be Used For Future Pilgrimages

    Close to 300 Singaporeans who are in Mecca for umrah, a minor pilgrimage, are scheduled to return on alternative airlines, after Qatar Airways’ licence was revoked by Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.

    Mr Mustafa Jumat, vice-president of the Association of Muslim Travel Agents Singapore (Amtas), told The Straits Times yesterday that most Singaporeans have settled their return flight details. They also did not experience any major disruptions to their travel plans.

    “Qatar Airways assisted them and directed them to alternative airlines,” said Mr Jumat. Some of these alternatives include Malaysia Airlines, Etihad Airways and Emirates.

    Although the schedules of Singaporeans in Mecca are largely unaffected, their return flight routes will differ, with different stopovers.

    The disruptions started on Tuesday, when Saudi Arabia revoked Qatar Airways’ licences and ordered it to close its offices within 48 hours.

    The move came amid a diplomatic rift between Qatar and a powerful bloc in the Arab world – Bahrain, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates – who are accusing it of supporting terrorism across the region.

    On its website, Qatar Airways indicated that all flights to the four states will be suspended “until further notice”.

    Should the ban continue, Mr Jumat said that alternative travel plans may be required for groups scheduled to go on pilgrimages in October and November this year.

    Pihak berkuasa Arab Saudi kini mengenalkan satu khidmat baru di bandar Madinah, bagi para jemaah yang ke bandar bersejarah itu. Dipanggil “Bas Pelancong”, perjalanannya bermula di Masjid Nabawi, membawa para pengunjung ke 11 tapak di Madinah.

    Ini termasuklah ke tempat-tempat dan tanda mercu bersejarah seperti Jannat al-Baqi, Gunung Uhud, Masjid Qiblatain, Jalan Sultan dan pusat-pusat beli-belah.

    Menurut Saudi Gazette, khidmat bas terbaru itu memulakan perjalanan pertamanya pada Selasa (6 Jun) dan dikendalikan sebuah syarikat pelancongan yang mewakili Penguasa Pembangunan Al-Madinah Al-Munawarah.

    Laman akhbar itu juga melaporkan, dengan menyasarkan para pengunjung dari seluruh pelusuk dunia, perjalanan itu menawarkan para pemandu yang dapat bertutur dalam lapan bahasa.

    Fahad Al-Bayti, pegawai hubungan awam penguasa itu, ditukil Saudi Gazette sebagai berkata perjalanan sulung itu, yang disaksikan pihak media dan para peniaga sedang dalam peringkat persediaan untuk pelancaran rasmi projek berkenaan di masa-masa akan datang.

    Bas dua tingkat itu juga mesra penumpang kurang upaya supaya orang berkeperluan khas juga dapat menikmati manfaat projek unik berkenaan, menurut laporan Saudi Gazette.

    Encik Al-Bayti menarik perhatian bahawa pertimbangan dilakukan dalam menetapkan harga tiket supaya ia mudah diakses orang ramai.

    Projek tersebut juga termasuk lima bas pada fasa pertama, sebelum ia ditambahkan kepada 15 bas selepas itu. Ia akan beroperasi selama 14 jam setiap hari.
