See how UMNO-backed BN government has played or rather not playing a role towards the islamization of Malaysia. PAS is not involved in moving towards this legal efforts at all! So who intends to set up an Islamic State?? I believe BN would still say it is PAS!

PETALING JAYA (April 4, 2008): It is unconstitutional to punish non-Muslims for committing khalwat (close proximity) as there is no provision in law for it.
Malaysian Consultative Council of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism, and Taoism president Datuk A. Vaithilingam said yesterday that Article 121(A) of the Constitution allowed for separation between the Civil and Syariah courts.
“Khalwat is not recognised (as an offence) under civil law.
“It is not wrong for non-Muslims. Syariah law is only applicable to Muslims,” he said yesterday.
He was commenting on a proposal made during a seminar on Syariah Law review for non-Muslims who commit khalwat with Muslims to also be held liable.
