YAYASAN 1MALAYSIA CONDEMNS ARSON ATTACKS UPON CHURCHES
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Kuala Lumpur – 8 January 2010 – Yayasan 1Malaysia condemns the arson attacks upon a couple of churches in the Kuala Lumpur-Petaling-Jaya area last night. These are morally reprehensible, despicable acts.
The Qur’an explicitly urges people to protect all places of worship. No sane Muslim would indulge in acts that clearly violate the core teachings of the religion.
Yayasan 1Malaysia appeals to the authorities to apprehend the culprits and to take stern action against them in accordance with the law.
Yayasan 1Malaysia is an independent, non-profit foundation dedicated to develop, support and spearhead activities and programmes that will engage all Malaysians in working towards national unity and the 1Malaysia concept.
Dr. Chandra Muzaffar,
Chairman,
Yayasan 1Malaysia.
