MCA rejects PAS ‘addin’ move


KUALA LUMPUR: The MCA rejects PAS' proposed amendment to the Federal Constitution by replacing “Islam as the religion of the Federation” to “Islam is addin (a way of life)” as it will affect non-Muslim minority communities who do not practise that way of life.

MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek said when religion is imposed as a way of life for the majority, this will have an impact on a country that is made up of people of many faiths and cultures.
