Press Statement by Christian Federation of Malaysia (CFM)

CFM OUTRAGED BY CONTINUED VIOLATION OF SACRED PLACES

The Christian Federation of Malaysia is outraged that the violation of places of worship continues unabated as has happened this morning to two mosques along Jalan Klang Lama in Petaling Jaya. 

We are angry that there are some who want to foment enmity and strife among Malaysians for political mileage or for mischief.    

These violent acts can divide Malaysians and so we call on all citizens not to fall into such a trap.  

We believe that the police will bring swiftly to justice the perpetrators who have done these evil intentioned acts. 
 
Let us be vigilant against all suspicious activities around all our places of worship and report such to the police.  

As Christians we continue to pray for the peace and well-being of our nation in these troubled moments.
