AND GOVERNMENTS STAND IN FEAR BEFORE THEM.

Malaysian Islamists have made it very clear. It is all right to take and make money from infidels but it is prohibited to wish infidels well during their festive period.
Taking a leaf from the MM of Singapore Lee Kuan Yew, Takaful Malaysia a subsidiary of Bank Islam have apologised “for the confusion the e mail have caused”. That is certainly not acceptable. Bank Islam and specifically Takaful Malaysia must apologise and repudiate the contents and the author of this dangerous e mail. The author must voluntarily tender his resignation for not only causing “hurt and confusion to non-Muslims” but also for bringing shame to moderate Malaysian Muslims.
Unfortunately in the real world, Islamists do not resign, nor do they die or fade away but they find increasing strength in their numbers.
Captains of industries, commanders of governments stand in fear before them – often bending backward to accommodate their radical Islamists ideal of imposing a harsh, "one true Islam" over each infidel and each moderate Muslim.

Takaful apologises over e-mail.

Syarikat Takaful Malaysia Bhd, which is part of the Bank Islam group, has apologised for any confusion that has arisen from the misinterpretation of its recent e-mail.
An internal mail was sent to its staff by the insurance company’s management, prohibiting Muslim employees from extending Deepavali greetings to Hindus.
The e-mail was sent on Oct 3 by Mohd Fauzi Mustaffa of Takaful Malaysia’s syariah department.
A spokesman for Takaful Malaysia reiterated that Mohd Fauzi’s e-mail was meant for “internal circulation and as an advice or an opinion for our staff only. Source

Lim free to resign based on principle, says Mirzan.

Asli’s head of Centre for Public Policy Studies Dr Lim Teck Ghee has resigned over the controversial studies on the 45% bumiputra equity ownership in Malaysian companies
“We did an evaluation of the specific report and found it wanting. If its assumptions and calculations are faulty, we felt that the conclusions arrived at may also be faulty. As such, we feel that the report does not fairly reflect the true picture of bumiputra equity ownership in Malaysia,” said Mizran Mahathir.

He also expressed deep regret over the “hurt and confusion felt by all Malaysians” caused by the report.

And since Dr Lim had a different view to Asli’s and he felt strongly about it, he was free to resign from his position based on principle.
Asli’s head of Centre for Public Policy Studies Dr Lim Teck Ghee has resigned over the controversial studies on bumiputra equity ownership in Malaysian companies.
Dr Lim, a prominent political scientist, was also the former UN regional adviser and senior social specialist with the Environment and Social Development Sector Unit of the World Bank.
He also worked as regional adviser on poverty alleviation and social integration for the UN Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific. Source
