Surah Yusuf

They said: By Allah, well ye know we came not to do evil in the land, and are no thieves. (73) They said: And what shall be the penalty for it, if ye prove liars? (74) They said: The penalty for it! He in whose bag (the cup) is found, he is the penalty for it. Thus we requite wrong-doers. (75) Then he (Joseph) began the search with their bags before his brother’s bag, then he produced it from his brother’s bag. Thus did We contrive for Joseph. He could not have taken his brother according to the king’s law unless Allah willed. We raise by grades (of mercy) whom We will, and over every lord of knowledge there is one more knowing. (76)

I have proposed UNHCR a similar BUT much better and wider plan for all the refugees around the world

September 15, 2013

I have proposed UNHCR a similar BUT much better and wider plan for all the refugees around the world, about 5-6 years ago.
I sent through e-mails, registered posts and by-hand to one of the Malay lady officer who visited my clinic.
They never show any interest nor any response at all. Seem to fall on deaf ears and there was a deafening silence from the UNHCR.
Shame to you UNHCR officials!
I hereby wish to request my friends in high places or who have good connections, please forward my suggestion to the UNHCR HQ.
I will search and give the links of my proposal below as comments.

Refugees will get the work permits from Malaysian Immigration Deprtment

July 12, 2013
On the illegal Myanmar traders at the KL and Selayang wholesale markets, Ahmad Zahid said the issue had to be tackled by all quarters so that the welfare of the public, traders and workers were protected.
“Ninety per cent of the workforce at the markets consist of Myanmars whose services are badly needed because locals do not want to do this type of work. Not all of them have valid UNHCR cards. Most do not have any identity documents.
“My ministry is coordinating with UNHCR on this matter, if they qualify as refugees, we will get the Immigration Deprtment to issue them work permits,” he said.

SHAME ON YOU, OIC, and 3 Muslim countries in ASEAN for not helping the Muslim Refugees

June 18, 2013

From that more than 90% are Christians.
UNHCR is helping more on Christians.
Malaysian Chinese Christians are only helping Christian Chins, Christian Kachins and Christian Karens.
Third countries (hosts) and the NGOs are only eager to help Christians.

SHAME ON YOU, OIC, and 3 Muslim countries in ASEAN. Allah has given you enough blessings but you ignored the plights of downtrodden Muslims of Myanmar.

You all don’t care about the plight of Muslims of Myanmar.

Even if you do not wish to give refugee status, Asylum or citizenship….

Please kindly just give yearly visit passes like IMM 13 which you have freely given to your real-brothers from Indonesia, Acheh, southern Thai and southern Philippines.

Until things improve, something needs to be done to help refugees awaiting resettlement to third countries or until they can return to their home countries.
