as a malaysian i wish Msia gov declare ponggal as a public holiday

wah only 2 DAP menteri

kalah teruk

the other troll managed to get 7 menteri

cmon JAKIM so shit must bubar . useless.

Actually, it's true, JAKIM has no power to enforce a lot of things. They are the central body where people "refer to for coordinating and managing anything about Islam in Malaysia".

So when people ask, "can a Muslim celebrate Ponggal?" for example, they will do some reading and meeting and come up with a unified statement: "No you can't".

But can they enforce it? NO. Can they sue somebody who celebrated it? NO. Can they instruct other bodies or authorities to adopt their stand? NO.

However, if any authoritative body decide to adopt it, then it can be enforced. So I think in the issue of Ponggal celebration, it's on KPM.

Already wrong, now want to pusing.

Its ok. I understand. Stupid people like that 1

7 menteri so what!
The school CNY decor already taken down after sat
Now now news liao

The fuckin irony here is the same bodo that say muslim should be allowed to celebrate poggal festival just because its not religious but just a custom is the same bodo that mengelupur tngk 3 pages explaining what is the jawi writing on our currency etc because it is can turn people to Islam..

Hypothetically, since the matter of Islamic religion is under the jurisdiction & purview of states, would it not be possible if the function of JAKIM be relegated into an inter-state agency, instead of centralised at the federal level? As such they're answerable to the state governments & their respective rulers directly, instead of an instrument for the federal government?

Therefore, the staffs shall be derived, seconded from the States, instead of being a federal employee, and the budgetary allocation will be derived from the contribution of each states instead of from the federal coffer.

This also shall prevent the perception that the federal government is interfering with the state jurisdiction on religious matter.

Just an opinion. Maybe there are parts of this idea that I'm ignorant of and blindsided about..

Because as per my knowledge, before its establishment, it used to be a secretariat for the Rulers Council, is it not?

Which is the reason the learned fellows says it has gone by the constitution!?

Jakim is federal. They act to synchinize differences between states.
