KUALA LUMPUR: A Pas leader today questioned the government's decision to allow world-renowned band Coldplay to perform a live concert in Malaysia.
In a Facebook post, Pas central working committee member Nasrudin Hassan queried whether the government's decision to allow the British rock band to perform in the country was a form of hedonism and promotion of deviant culture in the country.
He also attached photos of Coldplay, with its lead singer holding a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) flag, and urged the government to cancel the concert.
"Does this mean that the government wants to promote hedonism and deviant culture in the country?
"I advise that the concert in Malaysia be cancelled as it does not bring any benefit to the country, race and religion (in the country)," he said today.
This would also be the first time the British rock band is scheduled to perform in Malaysia at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil.
The band has also pledged to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 50 per cent for the current tour compared with their 2016 and 2017 world tours.
Following the announcement of the band's Malaysia concert date yesterday, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim extended his welcome greeting to Coldplay upon learning that the world-renowned band has confirmed their stop in the country as part of their "Music of the Spheres" world tour in November.
"Let us work together to protect our environment and keep the world safe, terima kasih (thank you)," he said in the short video posted on his Facebook.
