'Allah' usage: It's status quo for Sabah and Sarawak Christians, says Ewon


KOTA KINABALU: Christians in Sabah and Sarawak do not have to worry about using the word "Allah" in their prayers and religious publications as they can continue practising their religion as usual, says Datuk Ewon Benedick.

The Upko president and Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister said this was made clear after a Cabinet meeting with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and other ministers two days ago.
