All They Want For X'Mas.......

Kudos to the state govt of Trengganu
especially to the Menteri Besar Datuk Idris Jusoh for
taking the bold step of looking into the plight of
Christians in the state who have been deprived of
having a proper church.(Nst 23/12 2004.). It is indeed
sad and inappropriate that after 47 years of
independence, the state govt of Kelantan, Trengganu
and Kedah has deemed it not neccessary to allocate
land for christians to build proper church for their
christian parishernors.In these states, christian
churchgoers have to make do with makeshifts churches
located on the second or third floors of shophouses.
The time has come for the state govt. of
Kelantan, Trengganu and Kedah to look into the plight
of christians in these states and make a concerted
effort to address the problem.The christians in these
states just pray and hope that the govt would just
give them a small piece of land so that a decent
church can be build for christian churchgoers.That is
all they want for christmas and they will pray and
keep on praying as they did for the last 47 years and
hope that their prayers will be answered.
