I WAS a bit perturbed by the accusation that the Jawi alphabet and stylistic khat writing is a sign of Islamisation. From my knowledge, the Jawi alphabet is an adaptation of the Arabic alphabet to suit our local language, Bahasa Malaysia.
I was told that when coming up with an argument, flip it around a few ways to see if it is ridiculous. And this “Jawi promotes Islamisation” argument can be flipped so many ways to show how idiotic it is.
