Those missionary run schools offer good education.<BR/>Sometimes I feel there are people and certain politicians who are purposely playing these issues up for their gain. Its the rakyaat that will be ultimately losing. Gone will all the goodwill that has been built between all the races and replaced by hatred and distrusts.<BR/>Do we all need these negative things to happen?<BR/>The politicians should be more responsible and have moral values and should be shameful of playing these things up.<BR/>After all the non malays dont complain if they bought 'halal' chickens from the supermarkets?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1648478786459644372007-12-06T03:46:00.000+08:002007-12-06T03:46:00.000+08:00Oh come all having cross wouldn't hurt anything.It...Oh come all having cross wouldn't hurt anything.It is after all a missionary school. Having different surrounding enriches you. <BR/><BR/>You fear what you don't understand. I have to confess I am Malay as well and I did go to convent since I was kindergarten until I was form 3. There's nothing wrong having all these around you. You learn about you friends culture and they learn about yours as well.<BR/><BR/>My school celebrate Easter as well as Eid. They're fair and we're tolerant of each other. Whenever I am still in Malaysia I still go visit my friends regardless their races. Have lunch at their home. <BR/><BR/>These school promotes tolerance since there is no restrictive identity forced upon you. You don't have to be Malay,Chinese or Indian. <BR/><BR/>This is very disappointing. I hate to see my school identity replace.milleu87https://www.blogger.com/profile/01412396615679360917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-56116736792232392592007-12-05T15:51:00.000+08:002007-12-05T15:51:00.000+08:00And we cannot have school names after Cristian sai...And we cannot have school names after Cristian saints in the like of SAINT JOHN, SAINT PAUL, La SALLE, METHODIST BOYS OR GIRLS SCHOOL, ASSUNTA or whatever!....heheheAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-40615915037542335572007-12-05T13:45:00.000+08:002007-12-05T13:45:00.000+08:00Doesnt AAB islamic Hadari concept allows greater f...Doesnt AAB islamic Hadari concept allows greater freedom for non muslim and more tolerance by muslims for their non muslim neighbours<BR/>Logically if this logic is continued it will be a matter of months when its deemed its haram for muslims to allow open house for their hari raya festivals and for muslims to visit their non muslims during their religious festivals<BR/>The way i see it, AAB is in a deep quagmyre to solve this problem. He keeps hearing and say it ' pains and hurts' his big ears listening but he never said " I will act or solve it" Very belit belit statements!<BR/>yet he keep asking the tourists from europe or other christian countries to visit malatsia!<BR/>Haiyaaa!

Simple solution, to be implemented in due course - just censor all dictionaries to remove the word "cross". Thereafter we call all those cr..s roads as "Crescent Road", like The Red Cr..s has became Red Crescent. Malaysia manyak-manyak boleh, mah!<BR/><BR/>Then, for example, in our angkasawan books, we can refer to the Southern Cr..s which appear on the Australian flag as the Southern Cresent. Immediately, PM will be appointed to be the leader of Muslims of the whole world.<BR/><BR/>Then he can really sleep well. In between making more meaningless speeches in Bahasa which the entire Arab world would not understand. Of course.<BR/><BR/>"Me wonder when Malays go to Universities in UK or other european countries whether the gomen complain if crosses and crucifixes are in their buildings and academic halls?"<BR/><BR/>Another silly question!<BR/><BR/>Ask the SIL, lah!

How could such "well-educated" person become an MP in the first place? Instead of serving the people, these MPs are tearing the very fabric of our society...the Malaysian society. They claim to be moderate Muslims but look at what is coming out of their mouths? To the MPs (esp Pak Lah), please walk the talk. So far, it's all air that's coming out...and it does not smell particularly good either...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-54179366190382595272007-12-04T22:53:00.000+08:002007-12-04T22:53:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-2022090930996221022007-12-04T19:31:00.000+08:002007-12-04T19:31:00.000+08:00"It is a part of the British/Malaya heritage, it i..."It is a part of the British/Malaya heritage, it is a part of Malaysian history. Demolish that? Demolish a part of our country's history just because you are an uneducated prick that have no religious tolerance?"<BR/><BR/>Well said, indeed!<BR/><BR/>Just like what the Taliban did to their Bamiyan Buddha statues. They destroyed it without any appreciation that they were destroying a part of their national history. The Taliban showed no tolerance for mere pieces (large, no doubt) of crafted stones - that is how blinding religious fervour can become.<BR/><BR/>And what did Buddhists worldwide do as a reaction to that? NOTHING. Simply because Buddhists understand that those are just pieces of stones, and you simply dont take it out on living people (valuable lives, Taliban or otherwise) over pieces of stones which, in any event, belonged to them.<BR/><BR/>It is my view that a people who do not value their own history cannot nurture any semblence of a culture, and a people without a sense of culture are clearly pariahs and riff-raffs. Please let us not head in that direction.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-83933483835636480152007-12-04T16:28:00.000+08:002007-12-04T16:28:00.000+08:00What is becoming of our nation?
