Malaysian free newspaper [The Sun, 26-06-12] reported, "There is no place in the country for those with 'deviant' thoughts including those who encompass alternative lifestyles, liberalism and pluralism, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak said yesterday. "We will ensure that any practice of deviant thoughts like lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT), liberalism and pluralism will not get a place in this country," he said at the launch of the book Islamic Agenda in the Country's Transformation at Putra World Trade Centre.
Deviant
- A person who is different from the norm, e.g. deviance in sexual, religious or criminal behaviour.
I am still free
Die is human of thoughts free
Damage caused by double standards
Die is freedom of humans shackled
Free in mind, spirit, soul but not
Living a life of bigotry
I choose to not
Embark on this
Battle to be right
For I am already free
