YOURSAY l ‘Why is it that flight attendant uniform is an issue but bauxite mining is not?’
Joker: The purpose of the requirement to cover aurat is so as not to entice the male species, is it not?
That being the case, then one could argue that why just stop at covering with long sleeves and long pants? Why stop at looser clothing?
One should argue for banning of make-up and even hiring more male stewards rather than female stewardesses.
After all, the purpose of cabin crew is to serve such as serving drinks, lugging luggage, etc, of which the male species is more than capable of doing.
Bad Feng Shui: Yes, why not just hire male flight attendants? In fact, if having women around is so problematic, why not ban all female staff. That should make the pious people happy.
TehTarik: Will the airline allow passengers who are not dressed according to syariah law to board the aircraft? Also will passengers be allowed to carry non-halal stuff like alcohol on board?
Will passengers be segregated according to their gender, particularly those who are unmarried or travelling without their spouses?
Can female crew members serve male passengers and vice versa? I hope that the airline can clarify the issue, especially for non-Muslim passengers.
P Dev Anand Pillai: From what we see and gather, Islam in this land of ours seems to be only concerned with dress code, submissiveness and obedience, but it doesn't seem to be the least bothered about corruption, abuse of power, cheating, discrimination, unfair practices, racialism, etc.
What’s next? Muslim-only airlines, where the crew and the passengers must be only from one religion?
Anonymous_1419570792: Indeed, why is it that flight attendant uniform is an issue but bauxite mining that is adversely affecting the rakyat in Kuantan is not?
Iiiizzzziiii: If a person gets aroused while looking at a female form, why all the blame rests on that female form?
What about the person who has all these fantasies in the first place? It takes two hands to clap. Adopting a policy such as this will not help anyone to be a better Muslim. This kind of siege mentality belongs to the medieval time.
Living in the modern world also means every individual needs to make the necessary adjustments in their outlook on life.
If this continues, what kind of future is it going to be? I am sure paradise on earth is not one of it.
Anonymous #42582403: It's always the women who gets it. Rayani Air is definitely not on my list.
Hamzah Paiman: Malaysia sinking deeper and deeper into the dark ages. The present government is powerless in affecting positive change on religious extremists unlike the past. They rather sing and dance with PAS.
Xiao Zhu: Whether the uniform is in compliance to any religion doesn't save any airlines from disaster or an aircraft from mechanical problems.
More important is the profitability of the airline.
Clearwater: The ultimate proof of success is how well Rayani Air does in the competitive aviation industry, not how its cabin crew dresses.
Can it compete successfully and expand its routes or will it fly into oblivion in due time?
Worldly Wise: Religion must not be used to separate people. Covering the aurat was practised by Queen Elizabeth and Queen Victoria. It is not Islamic. It is prejudice.
Islam is much more than covering the aurat. Islam promotes higher values.
Exranger: What about passengers? Can they reveal their aurat? If they can, then it serves no purpose.
SultanMydin: Employ male staff as crew if there are those who are unhappy with how these stewardesses are attired. Would they prefer these women in a ‘hijab’ with a veil on?
Headhunter: Some people are not happy until the air hostesses look like a sack of potatoes.
Why is wrong with women making themselves look good as long as they don't do it provokingly? Some people seem to have a wild imagination.
Telestai: Forget about syariah compliant this and syariah compliant that. First and foremost, can we have a syariah-compliant government.
A government that safeguards the rights of the people. A government with ministers that are corrupt-free and do not steal money from the state coffers.
Anonymous 19321438170918: I guess some pious men can instantly get aroused by short-sleeves nurses, shirt-clad stewardess on Air Halal and leotard-wearing gymnasts.
Stop looking at them and go get a life. -Mkini
