Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

So much for PAS won't trample on the rights of non-Muslims.
Anyway, you got a source for that?
Yes, just updated in the comment, if you read chinese daily, there is another source.
