PETALING JAYA: PAS central working committee member Nasrudin Hassan is questioning the government’s intention in allowing world-renowned rock band Coldplay to perform in Malaysia.

In a post on his Facebook, Nasrudin asked if the government wanted to foster hedonism and perverse culture in the country.

“I would advise that they cancel the concert by the band in Malaysia. It does not bring any benefit to the religion, race and country,” he said.

He also posted side-by-side pictures of Coldplay promoting LGBT at their concert in London with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's tweet welcoming the group to Kuala Lumpur for their upcoming performance.

"Let us work together to protect our environment and keep the world safe," he said in the short video posted on his Facebook.

For the first time, the British band will perform a concert in Stadium Bukit Jalil in November as part of their Music of the Spheres World Tour.
