#1 Jeebus, I would say their turbans would explode when they get word that Christina A. and Beyonce are coming also, but then I remembered the Indonesian don't wear turbans.

#2 sounds like Kamarulzaman Mohamed got a tingling in his naughty parts while slo-mo'ing a Stefani music video, huh?

#4 Something I just never understood:

If their muslim values are so compelling, why do they have to worry about their adherents becoming corrupted? Wouldn't muslims just shun all these bad things on their own? Shouldn't they be expected to? Aren't they confident enough about their religion to believe that their people won't be drawn away from the magic of islam?

Instead, they ban performers, music, TV, literature, art, etc., cover women from head to toe, get insulted when others eat pork, beat people for not praying, kill converts, etc.

There is no compulsion in religion . . .

yeah, right.

#5 "Let's see. If we flout the decency rules, sales of albums and stuff goes up %1500. But we will have to pay a $3000 fine. Decisions, decisions. I guess we'll have to vie for 'artistic integrity' on this one. Is there any way she can have a 'garment malfunction' on stage?"

#6 Kamarulzaman Mohamed, an official of the fundamentalist Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, said Stefani's planned concert in Kuala Lumpur later this month would promote promiscuity, worsening an existing "teenage social problem."

He then asked for front row seats, a blanket, and a couple of gallons of hand cream...
