with Christian groups and all the different religious groups in order to
address interreligious issues and work towards the fulfilment of all religious
aspirations in accordance with the Constitution, taking into account the other
relevant laws of the country.
He also gave his assurances of the
government’s commitment in solving any religious issues in this country.
The 10-point solution to address the
Bahasa Malaysia/Indonesia Bible and other related issues:
PRIME MINISTER
MALAYSIA
MALAYSIA
11 April 2011
JPM.PEMANDU,600-231112011 (2)
Bishop Ng Moon Hing
Chairman
Christian Federation of Malaysia (CFM)
Chairman
Christian Federation of Malaysia (CFM)
As we are all aware, the impounding
of the Bible in Bahasa Malaysia/Indonesia has triggered concerns and tensions
within the country which we have to address urgently to prevent these from
escalating any further. Consequently, we have been in discussion with the
Christian Federation of Malaysia and other Christian groups to resolve the
Bahasa Malaysia/lndonesia Bible and also other religious issues. Taking into
account the polarity of views of the different religious groups, including Christians
and Muslims, the Government decided on a Ten-Point Solution.
On 2 April 2011 the Government
announced a Ten-Point Solution to address the Bible issue and other related
issues. I wish to confirm that this is a collective decision by the Cabinet.
The Ten Point Solution is as
follows:
1. Bibles in all languages can be
imported into the country, including Bahasa Malaysia/Indonesia.
2. These Bibles can also be printed
locally in Peninsula Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak. This is a new development
which should be welcomed by the Christian groups.
3. Bibles in indigenous languages of
Sabah and Sarawak such as Iban, Kadazan¬Dusun and Lun Bawang can also be
printed locally and imported.
4. For Sabah and Sarawak, in
recognition of the large Christian community in these states, there are no
conditions attached to the importation and local printing of the Bibles in all
languages, including Bahasa Malaysia/ Indonesia and indigenous languages. There
is no requirement for any stamp or serial number.
5. Taking into account the interest
of the larger Muslim community, for Peninsula Malaysia, Bibles in Bahasa
Malaysia/Indonesia, imported or printed, must have the words “Christian
Publication” and the cross sign printed on the front covers.
10-point solution – page 2
6. In the spirit of 1Malaysia and
recognising that many people travel between Sabah and Sarawak and Peninsula
Malaysia, there should be no prohibitions and restrictions for people who bring
along their Bibles and Christian materials on such travel.
7. A directive on the Bible has been
issued by the Ketua Setiausaha (KSU) of the Home Ministry to ensure proper
implementation of this cabinet decision. Failure to comply will subject the
officers to disciplinary action under the General Orders. A comprehensive
briefing by top officials, including the Attorney General (AG), will be given
to all relevant civil servants to ensure good understanding and proper
implementation of the directive (See Attachment 1).
8. For the impounded Bibles in
Kuching, Gideon, the importer can collect all the 30,000 Bibles free of charge.
We undertake to ensure the parties involved are reimbursed. The same offer
remains available for the importer of the 5,100 Bibles in Port Kiang, which
have already been collected by the Bible Society Malaysia (BSM) last week.
9. Beyond the Bible issue, the
Government wishes to reiterate its commitment to work with the Christian groups
and all the different religious groups in order to address interreligious
issues and work towards the fulfilment of all religious aspirations in
accordance with the constitution, taking into account the other relevant laws
of the country. In order to bring urgency to this work, in my capacity as the
Prime Minister, I will meet the representatives of the Christian Federation of
Malaysia (CFM) soon to discuss the way forward.
10. The Christian Ministers in the
cabinet will meet on a regular basis with representatives of the various
Christian groups in order to discuss their issues and work with the relevant
Ministries and myself in order to resolve them. As the leader of this country,
I wish to reiterate the Government’s commitment in solving any religious issues
in this country. There is a need to manage polarities that exist in our society
to achieve peace and harmony. I believe the best way to achieve this is through
respect, tolerance, forgiveness and reconciliation.
Yours sincerely,
DATO’ SRI MOHD NAJIB
(Prime Minister of Malaysia)
(Prime Minister of Malaysia)
