PAS Youth questioned, why its concerts here this week were approved when it had been prevented from performing here in 2001.<\/p>\n
The movement did not list out what issues it has with the band or its performances, calling it a \u201cnegative influence\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cPAS Youth is questioning the authorities\u2019 resolve in addressing this event, when they so clearly tout the Islamic entertainment guidelines,\u201d its information chief, YB Ustaz Hishamudin Abdul Karim, said in a statement.<\/p>\n
He further asked how the nation and Malaysians would benefit from the event, suggesting it was little more than an opportunity to witness unhealthy cultures.<\/p>\n
Hishamudin then insisted that Islam was not against entertainment.<\/p>\n
\u201cPAS Youth is confident that PAS, if given the mandate to rule, will not block the organisation of concerts that meet the guidelines set by religious authorities to preserve the prosperity of the public,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
PAS Youth has a history of protesting against foreign performers.<\/p>\n
Last year, it did so against US pop singer Selena Gomez due to her \u201csexiness\u201d.<\/p>\n
Megadeth will perform at the National Stadium in Kuala Lumpur tomorrow and Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
