COMMENT | Apparently DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng wants to “engage” with Perlis mufti Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin after Asri (who claims there was a misrepresentation) made comments about the DAP in the press.

This is horse manure. The DAP secretary-general is not meeting the Perlis mufti, but rather, the finance minister of Malaysia is meeting with the Perlis mufti. Lim Guan Eng, who prides himself on being a “Malaysian” first (whatever that means), is meeting with a religious operative who has made it clear that someone like Zakir Naik is beneficial to Islam in Malaysia. A religious operative who recently backed a Muslim convert who allegedly disparaged Hinduism. Asri has a beef with the Hindu community, once claiming that no rational Malaysian worships cows.
