No big deal. This is exactly what would happen in the U.S. The whole world has agreed that the proper response to violent intimidation from Muslims is surrender and submission.
“Malaysian court bans Chinese-education lobby group’s protest against ‘Islamisation’ of schools,” by Bhavan Jaipragas, South China Morning Post, December 27, 2019:
A Malaysian court on Friday banned a planned weekend protest, organised by a powerful lobby group for the country’s Chinese-medium schools, that officials had warned could stir up ethnic strife in the multiracial country.
Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad warned last weekend that the event by the Dong Jiao Zong group had the potential to cause “chaos” as it pitted Malaysia’s minority Chinese community against the Malay-Muslim majority.
Dong Jiao Zong’s primary aim for the protest on Saturday at a college in the town of Kajang – 28km from Kuala Lumpur – was to voice its opposition to the education ministry’s plan to have all local schools teach khat, a calligraphic form of the Arabic script, or Jawi, that was once the preferred system to write the Malay language.
Local media said the court order obtained by the police cited the risk of “riots if the meeting was allowed to take place”.
“In view of this, your presence at Dewan Kolej Universiti New Era Kajang tomorrow is forbidden and you have been warned not to gather or take part in any part of the meeting,” the order said.
The Malaysiakini news website quoted protest organiser Low Chee Cheong as saying the group would “respect the court order [and] our meeting tomorrow will be cancelled”….

The fanatics have taken over in Malaysia. Reason and discussion are useless. The religious persecutions and slaughters of non-Muslims can only be months away. Malaysia has now turned towards absolute Islamic supremacism. Heaven pity those non-Muslims who cannot escape the coming terror.
Religious terrorism and bigotry are normative Islam based on the bigoted texts in the Koran and hadiths. Those are the ‘decrees’ of Allah. Only by leaving Islam can a Muslim shake off this intrinsic bigotry.

Yes because submission worked so well for the Jews thru out history.
mortimer says
This is official discrimination by the Malaysian government, the suppression of the freedom of assembly and the censorship of a peaceful demonstration in support of a reasonable grievance … namely the suppression of the freedom of religion and the freedom of conscience.
The freedom of assembly is defined as the right to hold public meetings and form associations without interference by the government.
The freedom of peaceful assembly is guaranteed by the First Amendment in the US Constitution. Freedom of assembly is the individual right to peacefully assemble, collectively express, and petition the government for redress of grievances.
Malaysia needs an equivalent of the First Amendment.
Teaching Islam intrinsically involves teaching bigotry against non-Muslims, since Islam requires Muslims to have ‘comradeship’ (Walaa) with Muslims only and ‘segregation’ (Baraa) from non-Muslims.

Easy enough to criticize the Malaysian government and its lack of educational freedom. It would appear that Americans are in full control of its own school system – so what is all this nonsense about the rotten Common Core Syllabus that`s gotten an iron grip on education in most US States.
THAT core was prepared by Islamic states in the Gulf and is right now being shoved down the throats of American school kids while parents are practically helpless to oppose its implementation unless they are resourceful enough to go to court for a bruising challenge.
All Muslim states including Malaysia have implemented a rigorous system of childhood indoctrination which includes the madrassa for Islamists , or public schools with an Islamized set of skewed revisionist texts to brainwash `others`.
My disappointment is – why is this situation still embedded in the US : why hasn`t Trump put a stop to it in the Red States at least. This is a festering threat to the future of American freedom and such a future is worrying because…….
without America there IS no freedom ( now where did I hear that ).
gravenimage says
Katherine, in the US the President has no direct control over education.
But he does have a “bully pulpit”, and should indeed make use of it.
And whatever the problems in the US–and they are many–you don’t have to worry about any part of the population going on murderous riots if someone criticizes Department of Education policies, as in Malaysia.

Dong Jiao Zong should appeal to Beijing to militarily intervene and occupy Malaysia. I’m sure Beijing, having flexed its regional muscles, would be happy to. Occupy that country, and send every Malayan, starting w/ Mahathir Mohammed and including Zakir Naik, to re-education camps in Xinxiang
katherine says
Sounds like a desperately good idea. Now what do you do about the idiotic Baboon called America
hopping over to free a democratic Malaysia from the clutches of the Commies and re-instate the freedom of their Muslim Allies ?
Infidel says
America is more likely to impose sanctions on Beijing than start a war in such a scenario (they may start a war if China moves against South Korea or Japan or even Taiwan). Something that I’m totally fine w/

Islam and Communism are both hideous oppressive creeds.

This is what happens when the west abandons innocent people to nominal independence & self-determination.
Infidel says
I reject Rudyard Kipling’s ‘White Man’s Burden’, which is what you allude to. It’s not the job of the west to civilize people elsewhere. Just leave them alone, and if they happen to be barbarians, like Muslims are, keep them out of your country.
Diversity is a good idea when it comes to having people of different cultures but similar values. Like a bunch of Japanese, Koreans, Norwegians, Swedes, Boers, et al wouldn’t hurt us. But there’s no reason to have Somalis, Iranians, Arabs, Turks, Pakistanis and those types here
elee says
I embrace the notion that much is to be exxpected from the fortunate. We cant Isolate ourselves from the world, it has already found us and penetrated us. The African or Asian Christian is not less worthy of protection than the Christian of Europe or New Zealand. Evil and oppression are evil and oppression wherever they occur. Im not in favour of conceding several continents to them. f
Infidel says
Well, we’ve been in Afghanistan for now 18 years. Why are they not a pluralistic society like ours that embraces religious diversity? Where Christians, Buddhists, Sikhs can live peacefully alongside Muslims?
elee says
Infidel: Nobody can live in peace with Muslims unless and until the Muslims are convinced that imposing forced conversion on others is both suicidal and unavailing. We cant even convince the Muslims among us of that, they are quite candidly waiting until they are strong enough to do that to the west. We cannot avoid this by deporting Muslims or by closing our borders to them. And we cannot avoid this confrontation by making sacrifices of the innocents of other continents.
Infidel says
Elee, there’s another option: quarantining them! In other words, keep Muslims out of non-Muslim countries, and don’t send non-Muslims to Muslim countries. That way, they’re separate. Militarily, Muslims are far inferior to non-Muslims, and so once that wall is erected, non Muslims should theoretically be safe.
Of course, it also helps to deport all Muslims already in bilad ul Kafir

Malaysia is 62% Muslim, and Islam is the official religion there. I’m not sure how much the West would be able to help them.
elee says
A lifetime ago, when Hitler Mussolini and Hirohito ruled a continent and a half, Britain—-and the West—-found their finest hour. Do we believe less in the justice of our cause than the men of that time? Is civilisation needed any less in the Sudan than it was 120 years ago?

Malaysia: Court bans protest against Islamization of schools for fear Muslims would riot
…………………
More threats of violence if Muslims don’t get their way. Infidels in Malaysia–Buddhists, Christians, practitioners of traditional Chinese religions, and Atheists are pretty much screwed there

MMM
Modern Moderate Malaysia
Angel says
As long as a Muslim country, the country will never prosper. Malaysia is consider doomed, as the law is always one sided. It is never fair. All start with the government, therefore minority unable to voice out. Even if able to voice out, the government will use as an excuse that we are racist or many reasons. If only we have our own land and all non-muslim move over and left the muslim, guess what will happen? They will become poor with full of debts and eventually seeking refugees from western countries.
Save Europe says
The only reason why Malaysia is fairly affluent is due to the Chinese, non Muslims, working their posteriors off.
The Muslim majority parasitically live off the non Muslims.
OLD GUY says
The muslims win when we submit to their way of thinking. Freedom YES, islam NO. Islam brings nothing but hate, fear, and death to the people of this world.
