Officials in Brunei have banned the public celebration of the Christmas holiday, the country’s Religious Affairs Department confirmed yesterday after reports emerged that the authorities raided restaurants and other buildings that had put up holiday decorations.
The tiny oil-rich nation has banned the public celebrating of Christmas, following concern that it will affect the faith of its Muslims.
Lighting candles, putting up decorations and even wearing Santa hats will be off the cards in Brunei this Christmas – with offenders threatened with up to five years in jail.
Any Muslims caught celebrating Christmas, and non-Muslims who are discovered organising celebrations, could face the lengthy prison sentence.
While non-Muslims are allowed to celebrate the holiday within their own communities, they must not disclose their plans to the nation's Muslims – which make up 65 per cent of the 420,000-strong population.
The nation is also home to substantial Christian and Buddhist communities.
'These enforcement measures are…intended to control the act of celebrating Christmas excessively and openly, which could damage the aqidah (beliefs) of the Muslim community,' said the Ministry of Religious Affairs in a statement.

Chinese lesbian takes govt to court over textbooks
November 24, 2015 at 9:45 am in News
A Chinese lesbian on Tuesday took the government to court over textbooks describing homosexuality as a “psychological disorder”, a landmark case in a country where discrimination remains common.
Qiu Bai, 21, a student at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou, brought the action against the ministry of education, demanding that it give her details of how it approved materials and how they could be changed.
China only officially decriminalised homosexuality in 1997, removing it from its list of mental illnesses four years later.
Qiu’s team showed AFP a manual, “Student Psychological Health”, published in 2015 by the prestigious Renmin University and distributed to students nationwide.
“The most commonly encountered forms of sexual deviance are homosexuality and the sick addictions of transvestism, transsexuality, fetishism, sadism, voyeurism and exhibitionism,” it read.
Other psychology textbooks had similar content.
Qiu, who uses a pseudonym for fear of being victimised, told AFP that she hoped to make sure such materials “no longer harm students”, adding that she had come under pressure from her university over the case, but it had been mitigated by coverage in Chinese media.
Holding a large rainbow flag, she said she was “excited” by her “first opportunity to have a face-to-face dialogue with the ministry of education”.
Supporters brandished signs outside the Fengtai district court in Beijing reading: “We want a fair judgement” and “Homosexuals must gain visibility”.
“Of the 90 textbooks available in the libraries of Guangzhou, 42 percent present homosexuality as a disease or abnormality,” said Peng Yanhui, director of the non-profit LGBT Rights Advocacy, based in the southern city, citing a study.
Attitudes are changing in major Chinese cities, but gay men and lesbians are still widely subject to strong social and family pressures.
Often without siblings, due to the country’s one-child policy, they must contend with parental insistence that they have grandchildren, and so frequently resign themselves to heterosexual marriages while keeping their true sexual orientation secret.

Your shoe size can tell your age.
Grab your calculator and try this: Here is how it goes;
1. Take your shoe size.
2. Multiply it by 5.
3. Add 50.
4. Multiply by 20.
5. Add 1015
6. Minus the year you were born. You will get 4 digits, the first 2 is your shoe size and the second is your age.
Try it and lets see if am correct. Leggoo!!

yeah! am an adent follower of muhammadu buhari but I don't buy his idea of slashing his salary and other political office holders but slashing their allowances alone is big enough a sacrifices not their salaries

from your post, I can see you are not well informed! even though you are not well informed can't you use your thinking faculty to know Buhari's qualification saga is political? do you also know that Buhari's qualifications is equivalent to masters degree holder? do you know that the military now has is certificate? I guess you don't. for insulting buhari, you should have your head examined!

Ha! so funny but on a more serious note I'll stand on my ground and if they don't believe me then I'll tell them I want to speak with my lawyer. I know many of you'll say I don't know what I'm saying. But I believe personality counts.

yes he can change the educational sector. changing the educational sector is not about paying the outstanding debts of ASUU but checking the loop holes endangering our education. he did it in the health sector,where he said no government officials shall embark on any medical treatment abroad. I think he'll do it in our educational sector where public office holders must take their children to any public school .with this I think the educational sector will be given full attention.

wow! the guy is cute ooooooo. but his father, cute too but fucking up !

why should politics be played this way? PDP sef .I'm from aba and I only majority of the citizens needs Dr Alex otti of apga

Amen
