Why 2 standard s?

Posted by EngineeringProfit > 1 day ago | Report Abuse

Only one standard - We must restrict overt displays of foreign national symbols within Malaysian public spaces, allowing instead for expressions of solidarity through culturally or universally neutral means.

Which one put the people at risk of being attacked or targeted by Israel? Endangering the people?

Displaying the Palestinian flag is often viewed as an implicit support for the Palestinian cause. Given the heightened geopolitical tensions surrounding the issue, such a display can attract unwanted attention from authorities concerned with potential radicalization, support for external conflicts, or affiliations with organizations deemed as security threats. Meanwhile, the Chinese flag, representing an established and diplomatically engaged nation, is less likely to evoke such concerns in a governmental or security context.

The issue of Palestine, while supported by some groups, is polarizing. Displaying the Palestinian flag can inadvertently stoke divisions or create perceived alignment with radical positions, which may cause backlash or hostility from segments of society that view it as antagonistic. In contrast, the Chinese flag typically doesn’t carry the same implications of inter-community conflict within Malaysia, as it represents an economic and diplomatic partner rather than a direct cause for ideological contention.

The Palestinian cause, while receiving support on certain platforms, is controversial in the context of Malaysia’s foreign policy balance. Open displays of the Palestinian flag could be interpreted by other countries as a form of alignment that may impact Malaysia’s neutral diplomatic stance, especially with nations aligned differently on the issue. The Chinese flag, representing an official state recognized by Malaysia, does not trigger the same diplomatic concerns or risks of foreign backlash.

The display of the Palestinian flag can occasionally intersect with laws pertaining to public order and national security, especially if it’s associated with rallies or events perceived as “politically charged.” This could increase the likelihood of legal action, where authorities might see the display as an act that disrupts national peace or public safety. On the other hand, the Chinese flag lacks this association with grassroots political protest and typically doesn’t provoke such responses.

Public support for Palestine in highly visible ways can occasionally lead to societal tensions, affecting local businesses or creating an environment of hostility for communities with diverse backgrounds and allegiances. This atmosphere can be potentially harmful, especially in a multicultural setting like Malaysia, where such displays may inadvertently alienate certain groups. The Chinese flag, associated more with trade and established diplomacy, doesn’t usually provoke these tensions or raise concerns of communal strain.

So, which one put the people at risk of being attacked or targeted by Israel? Endangering the people? Which one spoil the people's business? Which is bad?

While both flags symbolize connections beyond Malaysia’s borders, the Palestinian flag’s display carries more weight in terms of political risk, public perception, and potential legal consequences. These factors make it a more hazardous symbol in terms of public safety, national cohesion, and diplomatic relations, especially when compared to the Chinese flag.
