The Islam Defenders’ Associations (Pembela) has announced plans to commemorate July 30 as Malay Civilisation Day.

This comes after the NGO expressed its disappointment in seeing Muslims celebrating the Bon Odori Festival, an annual cultural festival originating from Japan.

“I was shocked to see 35,000 people celebrating this Bon Odori Festival, who were mostly Malay-Muslims, even though the asatizah (religious teachers) group, including the religious authorities and the mufti forbade it.

“This is based on the results of their study, which found that there are elements of syirik (idolatry) behind it,” said Pembela chairperson Aminuddin Yahaya (above) in a statement today.
