The wind internationally is not blowing in a “moderate” direction.
“Malaysian sharia laws: Parliament to debate hudud bill that could introduce stonings and amputations in state of Kelantan,” by Girish Sawlani, ABC.net.au, October 16, 2016:
The Malaysian Parliament is set to debate a controversial bill that could see stricter forms of sharia law introduced in the state of Kelantan, but critics have warned the so called hudud bill would result in whippings and even the amputations of limbs for crimes such as theft.
The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party — commonly known as PAS — is pushing to introduce the proposed laws in the conservative north-eastern state, but first the bill must be passed by the Malaysian national parliament.
Kelantan is a major stronghold for PAS, which was founded in 1951 and is among the country’s oldest and largest opposition parties.
“Among the mandate from the people is to try to establish the Islamic system here, including the Islamic criminal law,” PAS executive council member Mohd Fadzi said.
Kelantan’s state capital Kota Bahru is deeply religious and many of its citizens live by a strict adherence to Islam.
At shops and supermarkets there are separate queues for males and females, while signs advising women to cover up are common outside offices and government buildings.
PAS secures Prime Minister’s supportEarlier this year, PAS tabled a private members bill to amend act 355 of the federal constitution with the support of Prime Minister Najib Razak’s United Malays National Organisation party (UMNO).
The bill aims to increase the powers of sharia courts to enforce some aspects of hudud, which is the Islamic system of crime and punishment that includes amputations and stoning….

Obama wants to increase trade with Muslim Malaysia.
David says
Obama is insane. As well as guilty of Treason. I’m PRAYING for his arrest and punishment.
LR says
Treason? Don’t know where you get that idea.
Dacritic says
From promoting all he could about Islam?
Mazo says
Obama and most American Republicans and Democrats want to increase trade with Malaysia because of their hatred of China and fear that Malaysia will fall into China’s orbit. Obama wants Malaysia under American puppet control.
Schrödinger says
Thanks for that further fascinating insight Mazo.
However it’s still necessary to mark you down, just a smidgen, since you’ve again overlooked reminding everyone that islam is a religion of peace.

Hey, that’s great news for all Thailand tourists: What about adventure excursions to neighbouring Malaysia, to watch some real-life drama? Kelantan is really right on the other side of the border – really convenient.

here’s an update:
This individual just suggested that germans learn arabic etc, in order to better ‘integrate’ into quarters dominated by invaders. Apparently he received some strong responses, upon which he back-pedalled.

Huh, am I to think that the people pushing for it are unaware of that?
Roger Catlin says
Forced amputations would give the prosthesis more business. Maybe that is a motivating factor. I am just kidding. Such a bill is a sickness, a sickness given to the people at birth and early childhood and that is essentially impossible to correct after the age of 16-18. It is ingrained in their personalities, in their way of thinking. Those people almost cease to be human. It is so sad.

And if one thinks of a successful Muslim majority country, in terms of innovation, technology, etc… pretty much the only one that remotely comes to mind is… Malaysia.
Now I think that we understand why Singapore has such a focus on its military strength. Good old Lee Kwan Yue wasn’t such a moron, after all.
umbra says
No. No. Innovative, technologically advance, successful … malaysia is not. The educational level of their natives is appalling. Locally produced university “professors” are hopeless. Medical, law, engineering, science degrees from malaysian universities are not recognised in many many (especially developed) countries – probably deemed worthless. Almost all advance tech and advance engineering companies are foreign and use malaysia as a cheaper manufacturing centre. One of the few exception is proto, although this company hires foreign engineers to design its vehicles. When proto started in th 80’s, its vehicle designs (and quite possibly manufacturing equipment) were bought lock, stock and barrel from Mitsubishi. Also, other big companies like the state owned petronas utilises foreign companies (such as Shell) to perform/manage oil recovery. This country has grown mainly because of the exploration of its natural resources. For example, timber which has been nearly exhausted was a major resource from the 60’s to the late 90’s. Palm oil is another, though malaysia has been leaped frogged by indonesia in this sector. Tin was another major resource until its price dropped. Oil and gas, another diminishing resource.
It is difficult to say if an innovative, technological successful islamic country actually exist at the moment, or indeed at any time in history – it would appear that innovation (technologically) and islam are mutually exclusive. None has made any significant scientific discovery (in any field of science). None has given the world any recognisable technologically useful invention (cars, planes, telecommunications, GPS, modern medicine, the list goes on).
In regards to Singapore, she has a massive armed forces precisely because of her immediate neighbours (malaysia and indonesia). A country with approximately 5.5 million people has an armed forces that could mobilise around 1 million men. Her Air Force has more combat jets than both malaysia and indonesia combined. Her army has more serviceable battle tanks than both malaysia and indonesia combined. Consider Western European countries like the Netherlands (16 mil pop), Belgium (11 mil pop) and Denmark (5.5 mil pop). All these three countries combined have less mobilisable troops than Singapore. This situation is a reminder of another country that is completely surrounded in the Middle East. She has to have the best military in the region precisely because of her ROP neighbours. Note also that the small, but wealthy brunei with its tiny security forces is not particularly concern with either her two big neighbours (malaysia and indonesia). Why is that? Could it be because it is also ROP? In fact, brunie is more ROP since it has hudud on its books already.
Mazo says
You know Malaysia voted to kick Singapore out of the Malayan federation and not the other way around? Lee Kuan-yew wanted Singapore to stay in Malaysia but the Malays held a suprise sudden snap vote and kickes Singapore out entirely.
Not sure why you think Malaysia wants an extra population of several million non-Muslim, non-Malays.
Singapore has a Hadhrami Arab community who are citizens of Singapore and they are conscripted into the Singaporean military like all other citizens

Did you know that God is NOT deceiver since deception is a SIN and God cannot sin? did you know that followers of God in Christ Jesus are not allowed to lie as we are to be righteous and He (God ) wants us to not to sin! Did you know that theft and murder are sin no matter who you do it to ?
Did you know that allah of the qur’an and hadiths is actually Satan of the Bible? and that muhammed did not heed the warnings of Paul the apostle not to a listen to any angel that gives a different gospel than the one that he and the other apostles were given by Jesus?
john spielman says
because Satan masquerades as a angel of light according to Paul the apostle of Jesus Christ?
Mazo says
If you believe in the Bible you would know that Christians believe God has murdered people, like most other religions. Read Book of Job.
Unless you are an atheist I don’t get what point you are making.
JOHN SPIELMAN says
Dear Mazo; God has never “murdered ” anyone! if you bothered to read Job , you would realize that God had allowed Satan to TEST Job by allowing catastrophic events in his life like the killing of his servants by raiding tribes and the tornado that destroyed his children’s house and killed them. The destruction of the Canaanite peoples was ordained by God because of their very evil lifestyle – just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha. In the former God used Israelites to carry out the punishment, in the latter He intervened directly. later God used Babylon and Assyria to punish His people for their sins.
JOHN SPIELMAN says
ps to Mazo: God is NOT a deceiver as is allah/Satan, nor is he a thief nor a liar nor a murderer like allah/ Satan. Jesus said that Satan was a thief liar and murderer from the beginning just like the your allah and his apostle muhammed! Your filthy religion sanctifies – makes holy, murder, stealing, and lying, to unbelievers!
john spielman says
sickening; muhammed a “man of truth and peace”- mores lies and deception from the father of lies and deception allah (Satan to Christ’s followers) who muhammed said was the greatest of deceivers! In reality,
muhammed was a narcissistic demon possessed mas murderer thief lair and pedophile false prophet
David says
Thank you.
I’m shocked that many more persons in our mass media REFUSE to tell the simple truth about muslims and islam. Thank God for the web.
Let the truth flow freely.

What a crock!! …muhammad was a man of murder & mayhem which also describes the unholy quran!

Jolly good for the Malaysians.
While on this trifling subject of Hudud punishments, how about defining “theft”? Let’s also remind ourselves that Malaysia’s PM Najib Razak is facing substantial pressure, at home and internationally, over allegations of massive fraud and theft of up to an estimated $3.5 billion (yes, that’s $US3.5 billion) diverted from a fund set up with the stated aim of “boosting the Malaysian economy”. A sizeable portion of these “investment funds” were apparently provided by the Saudi government. Mr Razak himself, perhaps also the extended Saudi Royal family — for that matter, any wealthy Sheik anywhere — perhaps they’ll all need to give a little more consideration than previously to going anywhere near Kalimantan province.
Typically, this story about Malaysia attempting to extend the application of Sharia law seems to be attracting barely a ripple of interest from our indefatigable MSM. Older JW commenters may still recall a happier, bygone era when we had both some morals and a whole lot more sanity; a time when a spade was called a spade and barbarism was denounced as barbarism. Unfortunately, doing so now risks upsetting the wonderful multicultural harmony we all enjoy — especially that with the muslims.

Oh, yes. And well stated.
