“It applies only to certain offences and this comes under the jurisdiction of the Syariah court and is only applicable to the Muslims. It has nothing to do with non-Muslims.” If there is any truth to this at all, the laws regarding the subjugation of non-Muslims as dhimmis will not be imposed, but this will give an immense boost to Sharia hardliners who want to see those laws implemented in Malaysia as well as the hudud laws — that is, the laws mandating amputation and stoning, etc.
“Malaysia Backs Islamic Law,” Reuters, May 29, 2016:
KUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) – Prime Minister Najib Razak’s government threw its support in parliament last week behind an Islamic penal code that includes amputations and stoning, shocking some of his allies and stoking fears of further strains in the multi-ethnic country.
Critics believe the scandal-tainted prime minister is using “hudud,” the Islamic law, to shore up the backing of Muslim Malay voters and fend off attacks on his leadership ahead of critical by-elections next month and a general election in 2018.
The government on Thursday unexpectedly submitted to parliament a hudud bill that had been proposed by the Islamist group Parti Islam se-Malaysia’s (PAS).
Although debate on the law was deferred to October by PAS leader Abdul Hadi Awang, its submission to parliament brought criticism from leaders across the political spectrum, including allies of the ruling Barisan Nasional coalition, who represent the ethnic Chinese and Indian communities.
Mr. Najib sought to ease tensions with his allies on Friday, saying the bill was “misunderstood.”
“It’s not hudud, but what we refer to as enhanced punishment,” he told a news conference after meeting leaders of his ruling United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) party.
“It applies only to certain offences and this comes under the jurisdiction of the Syariah court and is only applicable to the Muslims. It has nothing to do with non-Muslims.”…

He more or less treats the nation’s treasury as his own. He is fabulously corrupt, even more so than any of his predecessors. He controls the police force, military, judiciary and leads the government. malaysia is his personal fiefdom.

And this is how political machinations can destroy freedom and human rights. Some desperate politician hungry for votes and a house payment will sell out to islam. Oh hell, we see this kind of traitorous shit every god d*mn day. Look at our own quacky leaders and how they grovel to islam with lies and apologies. This is isn’t a nuclear war with islam, it’s death by a thousand cuts. One freedom at a time we’ll turn islamic if we aren’t vigilant. Some will counter that this could never happen in America, but it’s already happening. We see every f*cking day, the barefaced lies and fallacious arguments in defense of islam’s barbarous ideology. Sharia creep and terrorism is a weekly occurrence. Islamic culture is eating western society alive. Political correctness has rendered us helpless in the face of islam’s claim of religious protection. But it’s not a religion, it’s a political ideology like Nazism. It’s supremacist, racist, and hateful in the extreme. It does not deserve constitutional protection as a religion. We cannot let our weak and immoral leaders sell our sacred values and beliefs for a pagan, barbaric ideology. I want to defend good morals and reason. Or I disgrace our sacred heritage and damn future generations to a lifetime of slavery and oppression under islam.
Who do we offend by rejecting islam’s doctrine of jihad hate for the infidel? Answer: Only those who work to sustain those evil ideas. I have to say, I’m not too worried about their feelings.
Jerry says
The world is full of weak-willed, lily-livered fools for islam. We see them every day in the news, the internet, in our face. We need more folks like Spencer, Wilders, and Geller, willing to fight for moral goodness and right action. We can’t expect these few courageous souls to do it all. I challenge those people who have been gifted with a leadership role to stand tall for human rights and speak out against islam’s fascist ideas. Dare to risk your high-paying position and reputation as a faithful duckling for your status quo momma. Who am I to talk? I do my part. I speak out, I give money, I keep a watchful eye. I use what nature has given me, little as it may be. The evil we face in islam is not an apparition. It’s a literal fact, clearly spoken in their faith and lived by multitudes of muslims. And the result is cut heads, mass rapes, and cultural annihilation. I recall a friend of mine who helped me with my critical addiction. He said failure is only a decision away. How right he was. We must realize that with islam there will come a time when our fate, our freedoms, are one decision away.
Islam is a unique threat in our history. Let’s not try and bend this new reality to fit our old conceptions. I say we should face this new reality with a response that is consistent with who we are as a nation and people. We should dare to walk the razor to define our goals and aspirations if the situation dictates, and islam surely is one of those cases. Let’s not be afraid to roll up our sleeves and dip the pen of righteous clarification. We are who we are, and that’s worth fighting for.

Malaysia has a dual legal system – civil law for non-Muslims and the Islamic courts for Muslims. Only if you marry a Muslim – all child custody cases must be dealt with under the sharia court – which rules almost exclusively in favor of the Muslim partner.
Even if two Malaysian Hindus were married and one converts to Islam – if they are divorced – then the Islamic court would have higher jurisdiction than the civil court – even as only the father converted to Islam.
The Muslim Malaysian already live under poky Islamic laws – but like Pakistan in order to maintain power beleaguered leaders will agree to more fundamentalist ‘enhanced’ Islamic laws. Pakistan has never looked back – and what a disaster that has been!
::
Malaysian Twilight Zone
The Malaysian body snatcher stories are another example of sharia having the ultimate authority. If a Hindu or a Buddhist dies – and the state has any reason to believe that person had converted to Islam – they confiscate the deceased from the funeral parlor or even from the morning family.
::
Social Enhancement
And that is the problem with Islamic populations in the west – as Muslim numbers increase – politicians either desperate to get elected or to hold on to power – might be willing to make deals for the implementation of sharia in exchange for Muslim votes.
Western politicians might sell the loss of freedoms that come with Islamic theocracy as ‘social enhancement’!!
::
In the Maldives – when they were imposing more draconian Islamic laws or restrictions on a moderate population – they were being told these things were making them freer.
No doubt – if the enhanced punishment are successfully introduced – and it is doubtful – the next step for the Islamic party of Malaysia would be to extend the Islamic laws to cover Muslim and non-Muslim Malaysians alike.

Amazing, isn’t it, how many “misunderstandings” occur with regard to islam? Don’t worry folks, the Prime Minister is not talking about stonings and amputations! Nooooooo…..he’s talking about “enhanced punishment.” Just so there’s no misunderstanding.

They are implementing Sharia as an additional way of purging their enemies and bypassing the legal system to commit political assassinations.
Jay Boo says
Those Muslim leaders are the ones who need to be assassinated.
umbra says
He has already done that with anwar ibrahim. However, it is important to note that anwar is a fanatical islamic creature compared with najib – najib is disproportionally more corrupt than islamic, but islamic nevertheless.
mortimer says
…and naïve Western elites who know nothing about Islam, except for the name ‘Islam’, are to blame for not realizing the serious of this tragedy for human rights!
All countries should boycott Malaysia.
Redmond says
The target of the legislation are Muslim citizens only. This means that they are afraid of the rampant apostasy that is going on right now. It’s better if we let it run its course. This will actually backfire against the Malaysian government.
umbra says
One of the largest opposition party in malaysia is PAS. This party has been pushing for more sharia in the national legal code for years is will back this bill. Even with revolt from BN coalition partner parties, PAS will see this bill through. When than happens, malaysia will follow burnei and aceh (indonesia), where sharia which initially only applies to muslims, now also applies to non-muslim.
Godwin says
And it will not be applied to the VVIPs.
umbra says
That is correct, because underneath, those individuals are hypocrites and narcissists. najib is the prime example in malaysia today. However, it is the sultan of brunei (and his brother especially) that takes the cake – alcohol, women, drugs, any vice one could name plus the super-no … pork, delicious pork.

Not so soon yet. I doubt they prepared to sacrifice their golden geese that lay the golden eggs. I mean their licensed casino at Genting Highland n other gambling establishments, like lotto, 4D betting n horse racing, which should be forbidden in an Islamic country.
After the 1WMD saga, Malaysia is very, very short of money n needs these gambling taxes badly.

It should read ” 1MDB ” scandal.

That’s the flaming garbage-heap that had a problem with a tsunami, killed 300,000, yes?

1. do we give them any money?
2. why?

No, that was indonesia, malaysia is the geographically smaller garbage heap.
Florida Jim says
This is inevitable wherever Muslim begin to migrate. They believe Islam must rule or “paradise” is denied them.Everywhere they go this begins slowly and grows steam as they get more power, more mosques indoctrinating them and , Finally Sharia, jihad, taqiyya, taxation, enslavement and domination
The only difference between this country Canada, Australia and America is time.Oust every single one while you can.
Baucent says
This Najib character is a greasy politician of the worst type. some years ago he was saying that all ethnic groups should unite as “malaysians”, rather than the be divided along ethnic/religious lines. but every time his party is threatened politically he stirs up the “rights of the Malay” lobby to save his political arse.
SD says
This damn imbecile just opened Pandora’s Box and he doesn’t even know it. You can’t have a little bit of Islamic law because the hardliners will always demand full implementation. And even worse once you implement a little bit of this type of backward religious legislation then you can never remove it because every time you attempt to do so the hardliners will unite against you and they will speak out against you, some of them will make threats and in the worst-case scenario they will also use violence.
SD says
Just look at this man’s picture he looks like a fucking weasel.
