Heineken ops under MCO revoked - goons have acted in 'mysterious ways'

Malaysiakini:

Putrajaya revokes Heineken's approval

Putrajaya has revoked its approval for Heineken Malaysia Bhd to continue its operations during movement control order (MCO) period, according to Federal Territories Minister Annuar Musa.

This came after Umno, PAS and Bersatu leaders criticised the government for making such decision when alcohol was not an essential product.

Taking to Twitter, Annuar said the approval for the alcohol beverage manufacturer to work was not in line with MCO policy.

"It has been cancelled this morning ... because this was not in line with the policy of the government," he said.
Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry, in a letter to Heineken sighted by Malaysiakini, agreed that the alcoholic beverages producer was a food supply operator and therefore can operate during the partial lockdown.

What policy kerbau?

The latest belakang pusing is yet another comical backflip by this government (and Mahathir's as well), but it's not so comical (funny) when you look at the consequences.

Yet another concession to the ultra religious, stomping all over our (non Muslims') rights (not that we have many).

Remember the recent viral video of a Chinese woman misbehaving and insulting frontliners came under the scrutiny of the Perlis mufti who implied that her citizenship be revoked.

As Malaysiakini columnist Commander (rtd) S Thayaparan quoted Khalid Samad then criticising Dr Asri's double standard in implying the Chinese sweetie's citizenship be revoked:

“There are those who mocked the police, calling them pigs, but they are accepted because they are Malays. When it comes to Chinese yelling at the police, then he speaks."

Really podah lah, it's a non-Muslim issue so why must some Muslim leadership intrude into our affairs. But I suppose to PAS, the wrath of Allah swt has manifested. HE swt has (or rather the goons have) acted in 'mysterious ways'.
