The Speedzone ‘children’s party’ at Genting last Saturday had no booze. Haha! Just like their last one at KL Tower.
So glad i didnt go then . Feel sorry for those who went all the way there and got conned. Imagine being at a party and being forced to remain sober - all night.

Yes, no, yes, no?

As usual, after they fuck-up, the government tries to do damage-control. So now, Muslims may attend the Guinness gig. Whether guests will be able to drink is unknown. Probably not.
They were actually going to do a booze-free and Muslim-free party? How inappropriate and insulting, especially the Muslim-free part. What a disaster.
How dahell did we allow [...]

The Guinness 250th Anniversary party with Black Eyed Peas next month at Sunway Lagoon - no Muslim guests can enter. Not only dat, even though it will be for only non-Muslims and is a Guinness party, there will be no booze allowed. Orders from the government. (Read article here.)

Some people in Shah Alam want to ban d sales of beers at convenience stores there. Are they sane? It’s just beer for cryin out loud.
Yea, we all know Muslims aren’t supposed to drink beer (if they follow what they religion says), but does the religion also say non-Muslims cant have access to beer? I [...]

Freedom Festival - what next?

August 2nd, 2009 · 3 Comments · ~ Alcophobia ~, ~ Events ~

I got a reply from the Prime Minister’s Dept (Public Complaints Bureau) about a complaint i lodged against Jabatan Agama Islam Melaka (JAIM) about them stepping on the rights of non-Muslims to drink, and dress how they want.
JAIM claims they weren’t even there at the event. The organizer told me they were.
Looks like someone might [...]

Freedom Festival issue - Updates

June 4th, 2009 · 7 Comments · ~ Alcophobia ~, ~ Events ~, ~ Private partyz ~

UPDATE 1
I hear that the BN government, Islamic religious department & police have created ridiculous demands for all organizers. But d organizer still got screwed - the religious department harassed NON-Muslims, asking them to cover-up and shit.
I will be calling the religious department today to verify.
I doubt this organizer or any other will ever do [...]

Freedom Festival?? ‘Freedom’ my ass!

June 2nd, 2009 · 24 Comments · ~ Alcophobia ~, ~ Events ~, ~ Travel ~

O God, i travelled to a conservative,  alcohol-free party! I hope i can forgive myself. Definitely a first, and the last. But I’ll never forget Freedom Festival.
Although it was a fantastic production technically, the authorities messed things up.
Thank you for making me travel without leaving Malaysia. I thought I was in fuckin Afghanistan - no [...]
