Malay first or Malaysian first?

So much hoo-hah this last week or so with church raids, apostacy and conversion claims alike. Let me keep this post short.

DPM Muhyiddin once said he is Malay first then Malaysian much to the pretense displeasure of the opposition people. I say pretense because that's the answer they wanted to hear to facilitate their constant spinning of facts and downplaying every BN government initiative through their exploitation and twisting of public sentiments. Without a doubt BN has many flaws but that does not entitle anyone to wrong all their rights. The loose coalition that is pakatan itself is equally if not more prone to wrongs than BN.

With all the happenings that have been occurring lately it is safe to assume that the power hungry and pakatan supporting non's are getting bolder and arrogant. No longer is pas the only one in the trio using religion as a political tool, dap has joined the fray with pkr nodding along obediently in a guard dog kind of fashion. pkr's sacking of Zulkifli Noordin is testament enough to pkr's stand on Islamic matters.

Honestly, if you asked me if I'm Malay or Malaysian first I'd say neither! My answer would be MUSLIM FIRST! That said, constitutionally, in Malaysia, Muslims are Malays. By definition any Muslim who views himself as Muslim first would, by default, be Malay first. So, Mr. DPM you answered correctly in my book! While the context of his answer was not so much in the spiritual sense, again by constitutional definition, Muslims are Malays and vice-versa which also means that DPM Muhyiddin is a Muslim first.

Let us put a stop to all these unconstitutional demands and show of arrogance by the power hungry and disruptive nons from pakatan. It is a pity that the ones fighting (non-Mulims) and defending (stupid pas Muslims) now are dumb enough not to see that neither Kit Siang, Guan Eng, Anwar or even Nik Aziz cares a hoot about their faiths and beliefs. They're just being used to incite hatred, create instability, divide the believers of different faiths into groups so that they can fish for votes.

So my dear level headed Muslims please stay true to your Muslim selves and defend our belief to our last breath. We are being challenged right now, do not doubt it for a minute.... and to my level headed non-Muslims who have lived with us in peace for more than half a century, please also stay true to yourselves regardless of your respective faiths. Observe and obey the constitution for what it says: which, in a nutshell, says Islam is the official religion of this country and is not to be challenged fullstop.

Salam Ramadhan....
