for the silly girl and her buddies who are being charged in Malaysia for stripping on a sacred site. Not that I believe she caused an earhquake, but when we travel the globe, we are ambassadors for our country and should behave with respect for other cultures and beliefs
No sympathy

Matador - Still wrong !
The constitution grants freedom of religion and makes Malaysia an officially secular state !!!
Not wasting anymore time with you. Look up the meaning of secular please !!!
Anyhow it's ok as it's quite a complicated country. Supposed to ahem democratic elections but doesn't. The same party always governs and corruption plays quite a part.
for eg. Court rejects opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim against a sodomy conviction, sending the politician who poses the greatest threat to the long-ruling coalition back to prison for five years. Amnesty and Human Rights said it was a chilling effect on freedom of expression. The guy was fitted up !!!!

Britain is regarded as a Christian country but it isn't a puritanical state where the word of the Bible is followed to the letter.

Exactly right Boris ! Don't nat to sound racist or generalise too much but the Chinese drive the businesses and have the nous(?) . The Malays are lazy.
But I and a great time there, played football, worked and ate with both .
They themselves have an expression, the Malays are only good at two things:
1. Making Love
2. Thinking about Making Love

Spot on OP!
We always whine about people respecting our cultures, we should do the same

People don't respect our culture though.
Arranged marriages, female genital mutilation, forcing women to wear veils are not British culture.

The English aren't even allowed to fly England flags in thier own country as it might upset the immigrants

And they've relaxed their security laws to appease ridiculous religions. No one respects English culture including the English so I can see how English youngsters might make mistakes abroad.
