PENANG AND SELANGOR ARE PAKATAN STATES. Why can’t they control their respective religious bodies?
IN PENANG, A WOMAN’S BODY WAS TAKEN AWAY DURING A TAOIST FUNERAL. IN SELANGOR, A BRIDE WAS TAKEN AWAY DURING A HINDU WEDDING CEREMONY IN A HINDU TEMPLE.
MCA has a valid point: Why are these incidents happening in Pakatan states?
Penang Islamic Religious Department stops Chinese funeral
JAIS RAIDS HINDU WEDDING, STOPS IT, AND TAKES THE BRIDE AWAY!

WHAT’S YOUR ANSWER, PAKATAN STATE GOVERNMENTS?
—
Why would Umno push for Hudud in Kelantan and next Selangor when it can easily implement Hudud in its controlled states unless of course to attack and to break up Pakatan?
Why is it religious bigotry always happening in Pakatan-led states? Unless of course, it manufactures opportunities for them to whack and to send Pakatan in disarray as well as to create a illusion among the voters which will then make them lose faith in Pakatan?
Well, are you wise enough to see through the veil?

MCA: Can’t wed or die in peace in Pakatan states
The actions of Islamic authorities in Selangor and Penang have prompted MCA to launch a scathing salvo against Pakatan Rakyat.
Among others, Penang MCA deputy chief Tan Teik Cheng wondered if the opposition bloc is planning to get rid of all non-Muslims in their states.
“Under the administration of Pakatan, non-Muslims are continuously being harassed by the states’ Islamic religious departments,” he said in a statement today.
According to Tan, Selangor, Penang and Kelantan have witnessed numerous incidents which infringed on the rights of non-Muslims.
“In states under Pakatan’s administration, marriages are stopped and those being laid to rest are prevented from being laid to rest.
…
Meanwhile, Tan also told Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng “not to run away from his responsibility” since JAIPP is under the jurisdiction of the state government.
He also recalled the case of Indonesian Christian migrant worker Halimah, who JAIPP had previously arrested and charged for close proximity (khalwat).
Also taking Lim to task was Gerakan Youth chief Tan Keng Liang.
“With due respect to JAIPP, the matter could have been handled better than disrupting the funeral of the deceased,” he said in a statement.

Anwar: ‘Arrogant’ religious authorities bowing to ‘extremist’ pressure
The Malay Mail Online
KUALA LUMPUR, June 10 ― Islamic authorities’ enforcement at a Hindu wedding in Selangor and Taoist funeral in Penang is a clear display of an “arrogance of power”, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said today.
The PKR de facto leader told reporters that the actions by both the Selangor Islamic department (Jais) and the Penang Islamic department (Jaipp) was “insensitive” towards the feelings and rights of non-Muslims in Malaysia, and suggested that this due to rising pressure from right-wing “extremists and fanatics.”
“In the issue of the wedding in Selangor, if the information is correct they should have negotiated (before stopping the wedding).
“The same goes for Penang; this was a funeral…. it should have been resolved in a better manner,” he said
Anwar was referring to Jais’ intervention during a Hindu wedding last weekend, and Jaipp’s stopping of a Taoist funeral ceremony on Sunday.
…
“Do not do this, do not be perceived as insulting other races,” Anwar added.
