PETALING JAYA: All Malaysians must uphold the Constitution and respect all religions, but there must be no excessive punishments like the 10-year jail sentence meted against a Facebook user for insulting Islam, says Lim Kit Siang.

The DAP adviser was referring to a Facebook user who was sentenced to 10 years and 10 months jail by the Kuching Sessions Court, after admitting that he had insulted Islam and the Prophet Muhammad.

Luckily it was hanging or firing squad. Seems everyone has an agenda rather fighting for what is right or wrong. LKS has nothing to do so he want to stir the racial card by looking as he is championing the issue. PH leaders so far only fooled me & others on all the promises.

When some one insulted Islam & Prophet everyone kept quiet and once the sentenced meted out start crying obsessive & etc. PH Leaders not only blind but dumb. Why on the 1st place you insult? More & more hatred coming towards PH with all kind of funny comments & actions. phbuckup

Why didn't disclose the person name? What he said? Is asking non-muslim paying jizya not disrespect(insult)& undermining others religion? What is the basis of the Civil court verdict? Blasphemy is death penalty by Islamic law but shouldn't the religion being evaluated?can it?

What is the insult? Who is the person being convicted? Is this gomen scam to enslave people for free community service?

The religion Ayah Pin's sky kingdom kill nobody but being destroyed completely by government. Should government being charge for insult and persecute others religious belief? Although I never belief in Sky Kingdom but shouldn't I respect others who belief?

What is the difference between religion& cult? Why Ayah Pin Sky kingdom being punish, isn't it a religion too? I never belief Sky kingdom but shouldn't I respect others religion? Isn't moral compass shall be basis to evaluate a religion? Why religion can not be critics?

Contempt of court. The decision was made by the judiciary and DAP lawmakers should learn to uphold and respect the law.

Next time use your brain before doing anything....kesian

I am not condoning the disrespect shown when a religion is condemned or insulted but let’s take a lead from the advise of the Prophet himself or else chaos is what will be left with.

Rules of Law lah apek! Adooi

it's not only for those insults islam.,same goes to other religions too..

Excessive.! And this is under PH Govt. Ouch! What in the world Pakatan is up to? And why one sided harassment and politics of intimidation as practised by TDM Adminstration. Crazy? No?

That is why think first before do something. God gifts you a brain, fills it with educations and knowledge, not stupidity.

I hope PDRM and the courts rule fairly and equally if other races' religion and nationality is questioned by any individual, regardless religion or race.

Hukum bunuh sepatutnya ..10 yrs kira ringan laa apek

Penipu

they lucky not be sentence for life😕

He must appeal for a reduced sentence.

Diam laa apek tua.. lu duduk rumah diam2 sudah..

siapa suruh jadi bodoh hina agama orang? dah tak ada kerja lain nak buat?

Dia lahir dimana?

This is a court ruling based on civil law or penal code right? Can we criticize a court decision? Its not contempt of court? Sorry if im wrong, not an expert

'for you, your religion, for us, ours.' Call us sensitive, but there is nothing excessive when it is all with regrds to Prophet Muhammad SAW.

Then x mau kena jgn ckp pasal agama org. Duduk diam2 saja

If BN is the government today limkitsiang will ask Mca President to resign. So who is Uncle Kit’s target now ?

Are you the judge?mulut busuk

Let this be firm reminder to Malaysians. Do not insult Muslim, Do not set Churches on fire, Do not Riot in temples seafieldtemple tablenacle

Klau tak nak kena hukuman mcm tu jgn hina nabi muhammad n islam.. simple.

limkitsiang : the late LKY was a just,stern ‘ruler’ of S’pore & your chinese MPs and chinese ADUNs are way below standards compared to the late LKY.LKY was very fair and did not allow anyone to insult other religion or race,ok?Straight to jail for any type-insulting citizen,ok?

Now investors will have second thought of coming to Malaysia. Is Malaysia becoming more extremist ?

He can appeal unless he doesn't want to...

Hntr balik china sana

Patut ko aje kena sumbat dlm lobang

Nope,iz not excessive! Your race is now too much,ok? Please rule. Not insulting the Muslim’s Prophet Muhammad PBUH.Have we Muslims ever insulted any of your deities? or temples?
