Christians in Sabah and Sarawak can continue using 'Allah'


KOTA KINABALU: Christians in Sabah and Sarawak can continue using the term “Allah” in their worship, as the Federal Government will honour the 10-point solution on the issue made in 2011.

Stating this, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak also advised all groups not to politicise the issue “as they will be playing with fire that can eventually burn them”.
