This circular is to avoid tanglung case happen again.

They do it proactively before it becomes an issue. Now circular also becomes an issue.

Aiyo no hope.

Read carefully. The letter says "JAKIM says..."

so, in the end, Jakim lagi punya pasal. They have grown so large and influential that other departments and ministries are afraid of them.

If MOE seek advice of course la JAKIM must ‘says’. I believe MoE just want to avoid tanglung case happen again.

What confusion. It still says haram to join there. The "forced to part" with condition like unnecessary addendum when they could just end at "haram". Or get rid of the word "haram" and just advice what to observe.

Can't wait for them to come with another letter for celebrating CNY lol.

It is haram. Agree should stop at that.

JAKIM just give guidelines in case such situations exist. At the end it comes to the individual how he practices Islam.

CNY not religious so no problem but some muslim still don’t know.

Real muslim would have strong faith not swayed by simple act of joining other faith celebration.

.......or u toking about the "other" version in Middle East now?

I believe the issue here is acknowledging other religion, not getting swayed or get confused or whatever.

By joining other faith celebrations or ritual you are acknowledging its faith. That the main reason why non religion celebration is fine like CNY.
