KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — A Muslim gay man in Malaysia says he fears for his safety after speaking about his sexuality in an Internet video that attracted online death threats and accusations by religious authorities that he is insulting Islam.
Azwan Ismail told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Tuesday he was taking safety precautions following fierce criticism in this conservative, Muslim-majority country over his clip, which has been viewed more than 140,000 times on YouTube in just six days.
The segment, titled “I’m Gay, I’m OK,” features the 32-year-old engineer encouraging other gay Malaysians to be confident in themselves. It is part of a series of interviews posted online by gay rights activists since last week, but Azwan has attracted heavy attention because he is the only one from Malaysia’s ethnic Malay Muslim majority so far.
“I don’t know what to expect next,” Azwan said Tuesday in his first comments to the media after his nearly three-minute clip was posted Dec. 15. Other gay Malaysians featured in the “Independent Sexuality” video campaign so far are mainly ethnic Chinese non-Muslims, who generally face less of a public stigma about homosexuality.
Azwan said he has tried to avoid going out alone or lingering at public places after a few of the 3,000 people who commented on his video issued death threats and many others rebuked him. He has also made his personal details more private on social media websites. Although Azwan’s face appears clearly in the video, he declined to be photographed for the AP interview.
Malaysia’s Cabinet minister for Islamic affairs, Jamil Khir Baharom, voiced concerns over the weekend that gay activists were trying to promote homosexuality. He said officials might take “appropriate action to prevent this from spreading because it would hurt Islam’s image.”
Harussani Zakaria, one of Malaysia’s top Islamic clerics, reportedly said Azwan should have not made such an open declaration that “derided his own dignity and Islam in general.”
In the clip, Azwan said it was tough being gay in Malaysia because “religious and cultural factors have defined our lives, telling us who we can be and who we can’t.”
Azwan did not break any obvious laws by talking in the video, but he said his lawyer friend was checking whether other legal action could be taken against him. Sodomy is punishable by 20 years in prison, though the law is only occasionally enforced. Some states impose fines or jail terms for gay-related actions such as cross-dressing in public.
The video series is inspired by the similar “It Gets Better Project” started in the United States in October in response to a string of gay youth suicides. Several more Malay Muslims are expected to speak in upcoming clips, which are meant to tell young gay Malaysians not to despair about their future.
“My intention was not to insult Islam,” Azwan told the AP. “I just wanted to represent gay Malays in this project. I hope these videos will help to create a more open society and more discussion.”
Azwan, who has a boyfriend, said he started confiding in others about his sexuality five years ago. He added that he has not broached the subject with his parents, but his brother asked him about it after news of the video surfaced.
Aku rasa la mamat ni otak letak kat lulut laa..nama jek pandai belajar tinggi2 jadik engineer..tapi takkan la tak reti nak pikir…boleh plak cakap “My intention was not to insult Islam“…dah kompom2 dah haram..and ko buat..pastu ko bule pulak openly mengaku and nak plak ajak orang2 yang kompius cam ko bersama2 sesat lagi..huu..nak discuss ape lagi dah kalau kompom2 haram..pelik aku orang gini…
Skang ni dah takut la nak keluar tu..baru tau…
kalau penagih dadah kita bule hantar serenti..kalau benda pelik camne ape la nak buat agaknye ek…patutnya buat gak cam orang dadah ni..tangkap jek..then kasi brainwash kasi straight balik…kasi ingat balik kat Allah..huu..
Dah lama gile kitorang tak gi makan kat Manhattan Fish Market ni…last time pergi masa tu aku tengah pregnant with Alif…tapi kitorang mmg jarang pon makan kat Manhattan Fish Market..agak mahal la for us..2-4 years sekali tu ok la kot..hehehee..nak kata favorite pon tak gak…hehehe.. 😀
So let these pictures below do the story telling…
seriously portion untuk budak ni cam ala2 portion untuk aku jek..hahaha..banyak woo..lenkali kalau nak datang bule gak kot makan jek set budak ni..hahaah..bule ke? ke ade syarat kid’s meal untuk budak jek? hahaha..
ni chowder of the day..and untuk hari yang kitorang pergi ni ade seafood chowder..tapi rasanya last 2 years pon aku makan chowder ni gak…huu..
aku pon tak sure la ape nama platter ni…dier cam ade 2 jenis yang platter gini..RM49.90 kalau tak silap aku..
mud pie ni plak..sangat maniss!!!! huuu..ice cream kat dalam tu plak cam tak berapa nak sejuk jek aku rasa…rasa manis jek banyak…huu..tak tahan la manis sangat…aku ni tak berapa suke benar kalau manis2 gile ni…huu…so pasni kalau datang lagi xmo la beli lagi…huuu..tapi tak tau la kot dak p nak lagi..hohoho
ni plak budak bernama Alif ngan muke tak puas hati ngan ayah yang makan mud pie sorang2 tak bagi dier..hahaha…ade lagi kisah diorang berdua ni…tapi aku nak separate kat different post…cam banyak sangat plak gambar dalam satu post nanti..hehe.. 😀
kay la..tu jek la kesah kitorang bertiga makan kat Manhattan Fish Market @1Borneo…dah kata pon makan jek kan..ape jek lagi nak cerita..haahha..
Aku sure korang pon maybe dah tengok kot video ni..macam hot jek skang ni..huu..video pengakuan mamat melayu ni yang dier ni seorang yang Gay..
Kalau orang yang berbangsa lain dan beragama lain maybe la tak berapa nak kesah sangat kot rasanya..hehe..tapi ni bangsa melayu sendri..and normally kita bangsa Melayu ni dilahirkan sebagai seorang Muslim, so bile keluar video macam ni cam terkilan gak la..ye laa..bangsa kita kan…
Bagi kita orang Islam sah2 la kita tau perhubungan sejenis ni kompom2 haram kan..sape tak tau kisah kaum Nabi Lut..tapi maybe ade yg tak tau gak la tu..sebab tu la jadik gini..huu..
Aku tak mo la komen panjang pasal ni..aku bukan orang yg byk ilmu..tapi for me, kenapa lah mereka2 ni nak pilih jalan yang menyesatkan gini..seperti biasa diorang (gays) mesti akan cakap yang kita ni heterosexual ni tak paham diorang..how they feel..for them it’s not their choice that they are gay or something. Ntah laa..harap2 mamat ni or any other gays out there, one day akan dapat hidayah..
As for muslims yang terjebak ngan gayism (ade ke perkataan ni?) ni maybe kurang bimbingan agama kot masa membesar(wallahualam)…
Bila kita lahir as a muslim kita ni macam take it for granted tentang agama islam ni..kita kurang mendalami apa maksud islam sebenar…kita hanya hidup as a muslim because we’re born muslim..but you and me yang dah dilahirkan in a muslim family ni, kita ni bernasib baik..at least kita berada dilandasan yang benar..tapi untuk menjadi muslim sebenar yang betul2 islam di hati, aku mengaku yang aku masih jauh lagi..korang macam mana?
Sama-sama la kita berdoa yang diorang2 ni kembali ke jalan hidup yang sepatutnya..and mintak dijauhkan perkara2 begini dari terjadi dalam keluarga aku..amin…
see..warna pink dah aku punye Yahoo Mail…hehehe.. 😀
baru jek tukar..before this tengok kat options takde lagi benda ni…tadi pon sebab nak update signature..tu yg gi kat options..tengok2 bule tukar plak..hehehe..
so skang ni dah warna pink da yahoo mail aku..so sweet…
bercakap pasal e-mail ni cam teringat plak sejarah nama2 email aku dlu2 sebelum pakai beba_anas [at] yahoo [.dot] com ni..
mula2 sekali e-mail yg aku create is [email protected]..83 tu of course la tahun aku lahir, nicky tu plak dlu aku minat gile wei kat nick BSB tu..hahha..ni time sekolah lagi..dari form 3 kot email tu…lama gak aku pakai..rasanya sampai dah masuk MMU baru bukak e-mail Yahoo…
Masa kat MMU dlu kat bile form group untuk assignment jek mesti bertukar2 YahooID..untuk berYM la ape lagi..masa tu email yang aku create [email protected]..angela tu dlu cam aku suke nama tu..then pastu aku gabungkan ngan heroin game Final Fantasy 9, Princess Garnet..so jadik la angela_garnet tu….
Lama gak aku pakai ni..then list YM friends aku kompom menjela2 kena scroll banyak kali gak..hasil ntah berapa tahun dok kat MMU tu..ade yang jadik kawan..ade tu just kawan assignment jek laa..hehee..
tup2 few years back..aku tak ingat bile..tetibe aku nak login ke email aku dah tak bule…sudah..then aku try nak retrieve cam dah takle plak..aku rasa dier tanye birthday aku bile kot..hahaha..aku dlu2 mana nye nak create account pakai info yang betul..semua dok tipu2 jek..dah tu..langsung la takle retrieve…so dengan hati yg luke aku pon create la email baru yang pakai sekarang ni…kompom2 la korang tau kan dari mana aku dapat nama tu..hehe.. :p
nampak kan aku ni setia ngan yahoo..hehe..dah 10 tahun aku dengan Yahoo Mail jek..:D
Tapi sekarang aku ada banyak email..semua domain yang aku ade semua ade email..hahaha..tapi my primary email still beba_anas ni laa..semua email2 to email domains aku tu aku forwardkan ke email yahoo aku..sebab aku malas nak bukak thunderbird (ni open source..biasanya orang pakai outlook) tu selalu..bile ade email yang nak reply baru la aku bukak and reply..
Aku rasa kulit muke aku skang ni cam dah tak berapa nak lawo laa…huu..so nak gak pendapat from kawan2 pasal skin care ni…
Boleh dikatakan aku cam dah agak lama gak la tak berapa nak kesah sangat ngan kecantikan kulit muke aku ni…cuci pon kadang bule lupe..hehe..satu cream pon aku takde pakai skang ni…kalau cuci pon pakai sabun Eumora yang mak aku kasi free dlu..huu..nak kata ok tu ok la kot..sebab kalau aku pakai selalu pon kulit aku menten jek..takde tumbuh jerawat ke pe..tapi kalau tak cuci kompom la naik jerawat sebarang 2 bijik kat muke..huu..
maybe bule gak stay guna sabun Eumora tapi nak gak tambah krim ape2 ke..ntah laa..aku pon tak sure..ataupon nak cuba yang lain ke…
tapi yang penting kena affordable la..and affordable for me adalah something yang maybe below RM50 sebulan gitu..cam sabun Eumora ni..kalau tak silap dlu mak aku cakap dalam RM90+ kot orang jual…tapi aku pakai cam dah lama gila dah tak abes2 lagi..mungkin gak sebab aku slalu skip2 cuci muka..hahaha.. :p lagi satunya aku ni takde la rajin nak tunggu sampai 3 minit ni dok cuci muke..haha..tu kadang seminit dua minit..agak2 jek gitu…
Ni pon pasal semalam gak..masa dak p potong rambut tu.. 😀
