PAS Youth wants to spell out types of events
SHAH ALAM: The Selangor PAS Youth will ask the state government to meet with the relevant departments and state-owned companies to discuss the types of entertainment programmes which should be allowed in the state.
Its chief Sallehen Mokhyi said the meetings would help the state government ensure that only activities which focused on the healthy development of youths would be allowed.
“We (the Youth movement) can also play a role in perhaps coming up with guidelines on the kind of activities to help instil good moral values among the youth,” he told reporters after a visit to the state mufti’s office here yesterday.
Asked about the Youth movement’s meeting with the Sultan over the protest against a performance by rock queen Ella and dangdut singer Mas Idayu at the Sultan of Selangor Cup football match, he said he was still waiting to be informed of the date.
The movement handed a memorandum to the state government last week to protest against the performance by the two artistes and an upset Sultan of Selangor Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah threatened to call off future matches if the protest went ahead.
Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim later said that he would organise a meeting at the end of this month to allow the Sultan and the movement to discuss the matter.
