PKR Sabah Secretary – Dr Roland Chia has criticized that the  proposed bible burning  event on the 27 Jan 2013 – Sunday as an abhorrent act. Dr Roland Chia was referring to the incident whereby  a notice was found in the post box of a Christian priest in Butterworth which provided information that there would be a "pesta" of burning the Bahasa Melayu version of the Bible and inviting people to attend.   

This terrible event is to be held this Sunday 27th January 2013 at 10am in front of the Dewan Ahmad Badawi at the Bagan Luar municipality field in Butterworth.  

All religious Scriptures are sacred books and we should not threaten to burn them or to desecrate any such holy book in any manner.

Christians are peace-loving people who will continue to seek peace and harmony across all religious groups for the well-being of our great country. We pray that good sense and moderation will prevail for all people in times such as these. 

We call on those who desire to foment hatred for political gain to cease and desist from such a vile act -  an act unbecoming of us as Malaysians who uphold the Rukunegara of  which the first pillar is "Belief in God".    

PKR Sabah encourages all Sabahans , Malaysians and especially the Christians to be in prayer that such a thing will not happen in our beloved Malaysia. May the Almighty God confound the plans of such devious people who threaten to burn the  Holy Scripture of the Christians in the Bahasa Melayu version.
