Please Don't Stop The Music............

PAS youth has been really aggressive lately, from Pussycat Dolls, Avril Lavigne, Gwen Stefani till Rihanna they want to boycott. Their reasons for boycotting are the USA and protect Asian Culture.

I couldn’t understand what Asian culture are they talking about, Malay culture or Chinese culture or Muslim culture? If its Malay culture that’s very subjective issue. PAS youth has become like Taliban, no compromise at all.

If they don’t want to go to those concerts, then don’t go but don’t affect people than is none of their concern.

I am totally against PAS youth trying to block music freedom in Malaysia. As a music lover, I view this situation as an unhealthy. PAS stands have affected non-Muslim as well. Their statement is too arrogant and do not take into consideration of non-Muslim. Music has nothing to do with them and nobody force them to go to those concerts.

I have been following PAS progress since 1990. PAS has been good under the leadership of Nik Aziz and people like Mat Sabu, Husam Musa and Shaari Sungib came out around that era. After 1999, PAS got lot of new guys who don’t know much about surviving in politics. From Pure Islam to Arab-influenced and now Talibanization.
