non- shariah...

Posted by Zul Ilman Muhammad > 2012-08-09 23:32 | Report Abuse

yap..most likely..i think becoz of the non-permittable entertainment..

Juz wonder why MITI also had this allocation for Bumiputera.. +_+'

because some dont even bother..
and some not necessarily a Muslim.. org asli, sabahan or sarawakian n etc.

Yap, but im sure the government can tighten their allocation. Nway, can also trace from IC ma.. Its juz they dont want to do it. In a country where official religion is Islam, this situation should not be happem.

So Muslims who applied for Astro are bongok? Is that how you justify them?

ckinsg, jangan la jealous sangat on the miti allocation. You can apply thru ballot, hehhehe

Posted by KC Loh > 2012-08-10 11:25 | Report Abuse

sorry, the comment by ckinsg doesnt represent all non-muslim as far as i am concerned. MITI is only fulfilling the role of keeping govt checks on quota. Although i believe in free market and that everyone should buy and sell freely instead of quota base, we have to live with reality. govt is just doing their job ensuring bumiputera participation. So i can live with that!

in the stock market, its not muslim or buddhist or any religions. future religion incited jealousy should be stamped out!

this being said, let the matter rest and not resort to brickbats now!

For those who wondering about syariah ke tidak. First you need to understand why it is not syariah. I'm try to look whether any astro subsidiary jual arak, babi atau buat judi. Kalau the only reason is due to entertainment or bank loans, maybe I will apply. Kalau nak ikutkan Bank Islam pun tak Islam compliance tapi syariah compliance. Ada beza between islam compliance and syariah compliance. Look it up yourself, malas nak cite Macam berid says about bank loans. Unless we revamp the financial institution, start using gold or use money that backup by gold. So please share info on astro subsidiries operations activities... Mana lah tau kot kot ada yang buat arak ker..

businesses and trade-related activities in this country is so "inter-twinned". hard to comment on all these.. a case in point, PNB owns Maybank (non shariah compliance). a lot of ASB depositors use the $ received from annual dividends to perform religious abligations..
