“No DAP agenda, no normalising LBGTQ lifestyle”, FT PAS Youth forewarns FT Minister Hannah Yeoh

 

THE Federal Territories (FT) PAS Youth has issued a stern and unequivocal warning to newly-minted Federal Territory Minister Hannah Yeoh so as “not to bring, revive or nurture the agenda of DAP and its allies which clearly contradict Islamic values, Muslim sensitivities and community harmony”.

The long list of don’ts for the Segambut MP who was moved from her Youth and Sports portfolio to replace Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa who was surprisingly dropped include:

• Proposing local government election that have the potential to create power imbalance and social conflict;
• Liberal approach in urban administration that erodes the role of religion and moral values;
• Development policies that oppress the indigenous population, marginalise the B40 and accord priority to developers; and
• Attempts to normalise a perverse agenda in the name of fundamental rights and individual freedoms.

Chief among the concerns are the normalisation of LGBTQ and immoral/sinful acts via social activities, events, media campaigns and pressure on government institutions.

“We would like to clearly and firmly stress that the FT is not a ground for the normalisation of vice nor a site for liberal ideology experiments,” FT PAS Youth chief Azmer Syazwan Ahmad Suparmin pointed out in its official statement.

Any effort to (i) make LGBTQ a generally accepted lifestyle; (ii) relax enforcement of laws related to moral offences; (iii) provide space to programmes, campaigns or narratives that implicitly or openly promote immorality; and (iv) pressure religious agencies to submit to liberal beliefs is a betrayal of the trust of the people and the Federal Constitution.”

No compromise on Islamic interest

Elsewhere, PAS Youth also stated its non-comprising stance in the event:

• The Islamic agenda is marginalised, belittled or sacrificed in the name of openness;
• Vices and moral deviations are normalised in policies and administration;
• The welfare of the population is ignored, including housing issues, cost of living and land acquisition; and
• Injustice occurs to the people regardless of race because justice is a universal Islamic principle.

Towards this end, Azmer who is also the Titiwangsa division PAS Youth head further warned Yeoh that the FT PAS Youth will:

• Closely monitor every policy and decision of the FT Ministry;
• Not hesitate to voice open objections in Parliament, the media or stage public protests;
• Together with the rakyat defend the dignity of Islam and the well-being of the community; and
• Mobilise political and social action if the boundaries of principles are violated.

“Your position is a trust, not a license to dilute religious values ​​or normalise evil,” he reminded Yeoh. –  Focus Malaysia
