SUARAM’s Candlelight Vigil – Who Actually Supports RACISM?

SUARAM’s candlelight vigil at Esplanade, Penang. (The photo is from Generasi Pejuang Bangsa/ GPB).

Suara Rakyat Malaysia’s, (SUARAM) Candlelight Vigil was held at the Esplanade in Penang on May 13, 2013.

(sejarahmelayu.blogspot.com/2013/05/hot-melayu-pr-ppinang-engkar-fatwa.html)

I would like to say three things about the above picture:

1. There is a man wearing Muslim attire in the photo - Didn’t he knows that Muslims should not join Candlelight Vigil?

2. The candles on the ground forms the sentence, “TOLAK RASISM!!!” - Who are they referring to?

3. The second banner from left says; “APA WE MAO? Bersih Lah” - Why did they use the word ‘MAO’ when they should know that the right word in Bahasa Melayu is ‘mahu’; so they actually humiliates the Malays, especially when the word ‘Mao’ is synonym to Mao Zedong, a communist leader from China.

GPB wrote that:

“Turut hadir beberapa anggota Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN), termasuk (Sungai Puyu) dan Dr Afif Bahardin (Seberang Jaya).”

I am sad to see Muslims who do not understand that Muslims cannot take part in any Candlelight Vigil activity and PAS who supports SUARAM does not care to warn the PR’s Muslims about this.

(e-fatwa.gov.my/fatwa-kebangsaan/hukum-penglibatan-orang-islam-dalam-aktiviti-candlelight-vigil)

And in referring to them using the word ‘MAO’ instead of ‘mahu’, I want to ask SUARAM, now who are the ones who are actually racist?

It is easy to say bad things about others but it is hard to admit our own mistakes and for SUARAM, they are always perfect and like all the PR leaders, members and supporters – BN is never right and they would try to blame BN for whatever mistake that they ever made. 

 Muzakarah Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Kebangsaan Bagi Hal Ehwal Ugama Islam Malaysia Kali Ke-88 yang bersidang pada 2 Oktober 2009 telah membincangkan Hukum Penglibatan Orang Islam Dalam Aktiviti Candlelight Vigil. Muzakarah telah memutuskan bahawa:

1. Islam melarang umatnya daripada terlibat dalam apa jua amalan yang bersifat ritual atau upacara agama bukan Islam.

2. Umat Islam dilarang menyertai aktiviti Candlelight Vigil kerana ia mengandungi unsur-unsur tasyabbuh dengan agama bukan Islam yang akan menjejaskan akidah umat Islam.

China’s Sichuan province was hit by an earthquake on Saturday morning April 20, 2013.

The official Xinhua news agency reported that at least 71 people were killed while more than 2200 others were injured.

The earthquake occurred at 8.02 a.m. (0002 GMT) in Lushan county near Ya’an city and the epicenter had a depth of 12 km (7.5 miles), the U.S. Geological Survey said.

China’s seismological bureau measured the earthquake at magnitude-7 while the U.S. Geological Survey at 6.6.

It was reported that nearly all of the structures in Longmen village collapsed and that nearly 10,000 houses were damaged throughout the county.

Water and electricity were cut off in Lushan.

The shallow depth of the earthquake caused greater damages to the area.

Hard-hit parts of the county remained unreachable by road, with several highways cut off.

On May 12, 2008, a devastating 7.9-magnitude quake struck the nearby area leaving more than 90,000 people dead or missing and presumed dead.

Rescuing Victims Of China’s Latests Disaster-Mudslides

Terrible mudslides, land slides and flash floods hit northwest China on Sunday.

In China’s Gansu province, entire villages were buried in water, mud, and rocks.

At least 127 people were killed and at least 1300 were missing.

About 45,000 people have been evacuated.

Reports said that 88 people were injured.

Rescuing victims in the hardest-hit Zhouqu county was really hard.

Streets were covered with mud as thick as two metres (yards) in some spots.

Cars and homes were buried in mud and debris while roads and bridges were destroyed.

The landslides swept mud, houses, cars and other debris into a river running through Zhouqu.

The Bailong River was blocked and the overflowed water flooded the valley.

The town was covered with mud and water.

Demolitions experts set off three sets of charges to clear debris that blocked the river.

Rescuers and residents walk on a road covered by rocks and mud near a collapsed building after a mudslide triggered by heavy rains in Zhouqu county, in northwest China's Gansu province, Monday, Aug. 9, 2010. Rescuers searched Monday for an estimated 1,300 people left missing after rubble-strewn floodwaters tore through a remote corner of northwestern China, just one of a series of flood disasters across Asia that have plunged millions into misery.
