Fahmi Reza should NOT be arrested
So, we need the Malays and Muslims to become outraged about Pakatan Harapan’s attacks on the Malays, Prophet Muhammad, Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, and much more. Hence people like Fahmi Reza should NOT be arrested. Instead, these people should be allowed to go on with their insults and attacks. That will help Perikatan Nasional tremendously.
NO HOLDS BARRED
Raja Petra Kamarudin
The Perikatan Nasional government should stop arresting people perceived as insulting the Malays, Prophet Muhammad (or even Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Noah, Adam, Eve, etc.), Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, or whatever.
First of all, people like Lim Kit Siang and the DAP-Pakatan Harapan leaders allege that Malaysia is a failed state and that there is no democracy, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, freedom of association, civil liberties, and whatnot in Malaysia.
Malaysia needs to become an advanced country like France
Hence, the Perikatan Nasional government needs to prove these critics wrong.
Malaysia needs to be like France, which allows cartoons of Prophet Muhammad. The Perikatan Nasional government needs to prove that Malaysia is not a failed state — which denies you the freedom to insult whoever you want to insult — and that the country is as advanced as countries such as France — which considers insults as part and parcel of freedom of speech and a sign of an advanced society.
In fact, the French Prime Minister even joined a demonstration in 2015 to protest the terrorist acts by those who oppose the cartoons of Prophet Muhammad.
Even the French Prime Minister defends the right to insult kings, queens and prophets
If Malaysians were allowed the freedom to insult the Malays, Prophet Muhammad (plus Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Noah, Adam, Eve, etc.), Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, etc., then how can Malaysia be a failed state? Malaysia would be considered an advanced country because Malaysians have the freedom to do whatever they want.
It is very important for the sake of giving confidence to foreign investors that Malaysia is not seen as a failed state but is seen as an advanced country. If Malaysians are free to have sex in their cars in Lake Gardens and men are able to make out with one another on the dance floor in gay clubs, that would send the right message to foreign investors, who would flock to Malaysia bringing billions in FDI.
More importantly, those such as Fahmi Reza are Pakatan Harapan people. Hence when they insult the Malays, Prophet Muhammad (or Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Noah, Adam, Eve, etc.), Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, etc., people who hate such things will hate Pakatan Harapan.
As we all know, Malaysian politics is the politics of hate. That is why they are attacking Muhyiddin Yassin, PAS, PPBM, Perikatan Nasional, the Raja-Raja Melayu, and all those other icons of Malay power (at one time DAP even attacked the songkok and datukships).
Lim Kit Siang says Malaysia is a failed state so prove him wrong
Hence Perikatan Nasional needs to play Taiichi by turning that same strategy back on Pakatan Harapan. Turn the hate that Pakatan Harapan is spewing back on them. And you achieve this by allowing them to insult the Malays, Prophet Muhammad (or Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Noah, Adam, Eve, etc.), Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, and so on.
This is like what happened during WWII. When WWII started, Americans did not want the US to join the war and US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt could not do anything. Then, when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbour, Americans were outraged, and the US was “forced” to join the war (which ensured the defeat of Nazi Germany).
So, we need the Malays and Muslims to become outraged about Pakatan Harapan’s attacks on the Malays, Prophet Muhammad, Islam, the Sharia, the Raja-Raja Melayu, the police, the military, the civil servants, the government, and much more. Hence people like Fahmi Reza should NOT be arrested. Instead, these people should be allowed to go on with their insults and attacks. That will help Perikatan Nasional tremendously.
