Retract your statement, MCA tells Ibrahim

MCA central committee member Loh Seng Kok says that the Perkasa chief's provocative statement has no place in a multi-religious Malaysia.

PETALING JAYA: Perkasa president Ibrahim Ali must retract his recent calls for Muslims to burn Malay Bibles with the word “Allah” in them.

In a statement today, MCA central committee member Loh Seng Kok also said that as an elected MP, Ibrahim should strive to work for the betterment of all Malaysians, irrespective of their religious beliefs.

“He has pushed things too far. Ibrahim’s attitude is unbecoming and disappointing,” said Loh.

On Satuday, the Pasir Mas MP urged Muslims to burn Malay Bibles, known as the al-Kitab.

He claimed certain quarters were trying to provoke the Muslims by using Arabic words in the Christian holy scriptures.

His statement drew brickbats from various quarters, with civil rights lawyer Syahredzan Johan urging the police to investigate Ibrahim under the Penal Code and the Sedition Act.

Loh said that although the Barisan Nasional government respects freedom of speech, an individual must remember that Malaysia is a multi-religious country.

“And we must practise tolerance and respect for each other, in the spirit of the 1Malaysia concept,” he said.

Loh added that Ibrahim’s statement was not only dangerous, but was also inflammatory and seditious in nature.

“Not only did he disrespect the Christian’s holy book, Ibrahim’s calls to burn the al-Kitab also tantamount to vandalism,” he said.

How did Gautama Buddha reach Enlightenment (Nirvana)?

Ven. Dr Ashin Indaka from Myanmar charged rm400 per who want to be monk at SAMNAK SAMBODHI TAMAN DESA JAYA BUDDHIST TEMPLE...ANYONE GO THERE, MUST CAREFUL...THIS IS MAKE BUDDHIST SHAMEFUL...Buddha is never asks money from his students..a lot people unhappy with that cost..

We would like inform to all committees of SAMNAK SAMBODHI BUDDHIST TEMPLE, No: 19 Jalan 38 Taman Desa Jaya, Kepong, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There are so many Myanmar condemnations about when anyone wants to become the monks, who chief monk requests them to pay about RM400.00 per head.

This is one of crushing shame and exploitation because may be that cost high for Myanmar, also this is one kind of business system in Buddhist, all of us must think in correctly, Buddha went to became a monk with free of charge and he practiced to attain Enlightenment without any cent of dollar to spend, sometimes needed to referred from the Buddha times.

Buddhist Temple in Malaysia 100% supported by public. The committees of Temple, they worked as voluntary and take care of Temple with organized but in Temple not allowed to played politic because in Temple must be clean and welcome all everyone.

Recently, do bad and good must careful because everything's huge complaint in Internet, about Buddhist teaching a lot of at Internet, sometimes we can't tell lie to the others one. We must help Myanmar people as they came to Malaysia to work, earn money and save money for their family at home.

We are Malaysia Buddhist must help Myanmar Buddhist, not to cheated them because they came to our country to work, we must show our good quality and our good Buddhist. Not like some committees members cheated money Myanmar monks; this is very bad Malaysia Buddhist.

Hope YIP KUM FOOK (MCA GOMBAK) realizes himself, now many people know in what he done for Buddhist, Buddhist Kamma will attack to everyone, if they do bad or good.
FORWARD BY PANCHAN-KYAIK

Born in Lumbini, Nepal, Siddhartha was destined to a luxurious life as a prince, had three palaces especially built for him. Siddhartha escaped his palace, accompanied by Channa aboard his horse Kanthaka, leaving behind this royal life to become a mendicant. Sitting under a banyan tree, now known as the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya (Bihar, India), he vowed never to arise until he had found the Truth. After 49 days meditating, at the age of 35, he attained Enlightenment (Nirvana). Gautama, from then on, was known as the Buddha or "Awakened One." Buddha is also sometimes translated as "The Enlightened One." Often, he is referred to in Buddhism as Shakyamuni Buddha or "The Awakened One of the Shakya Clan."
