Ohhhhhh boy >_>

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian government is offering cash prizes of up to US$1,000 for the best videos explaining how to "prevent" homosexuality, according to a competition launched on the health ministry's website.
Activists on Saturday said the move will further spread fear among Malaysia's LGBT community, as conservative attitudes chip away at the Muslim-majority nation's one-time reputation for moderation and tolerance.

Contestants are invited to submit a video clip addressing various categories including gayness or "gender confusion", and offering suggestions as to how these could be "prevented or controlled".

Winners will receive between 1,000 and 4,000 ringgit after the competition closes at the end of August, the ministry's website said.

Nisha Ayub, Malaysia's most prominent LGBT activist, said health authorities were initiating hatred and discrimination against the community in Malaysia.
"The ministry needs to revise this and think about their actions," added Ayub, who last year became the first transgender woman to be named in the list of International Women of Courage by the US State Department.

Smh. Our government continues to fail.

Hopefully. The internet needs to troll these idiots.

 

[Messofanego]

I feel so bad for my fellow Malaysian LGBT muslims. Malaysians, grow up out of your hatred. More power to Nisha Ayub.

"I am straight. I don't want to be gay. Everyone must be the same"

You can say the same about global warming for example =P

yuuuuuuuuup

 

[Imperfected]

This is awful, but man, if someone can get their hands on the losing entrants in this competition I bet there would be enough cringe and spicy memes to last a lifetime.

I'm just imagining a bunch of small community production acting with cheesy 80's VHS VFX and dated stereotypes.

It's very simple, they think being gay is like a delinquent act.

Like dressing punk or goth.

 

[pigeon interrupted]

There's an easy $1000 waiting for that Odo looking fucker Mike Pence.

Looks like Malaysia is going on my disappointingly long list of places to never visit.

 

[Rick1o1]

As someone from the Netherlands it always surprises me how there are still so many countries that are anti-gay. We have legalized same sex marriage in the year 2001 and some countries are not even close to gay acceptance, let alone legalizing it.

 

[vonStirlitz]

Well, if you gonna take 680m of Saudi money, you gonna invest it in extremist propaganda.

 

[SuperBowser]

i wonder what bizarre video creations will come out of this.

 

[Saucycarpdog]

I predict the submission box will be flooded with gay porn. And I will laugh.

 

[KDR_11k]

"The only way to get rid of your gayness is to kill a homophobe and eat his still-beating heart. Often multiple doses of this treatment are required so don't stop just because it isn't working!"

 

[Gentleman Jack]

So this is going to get flooded with progay videos... Right?

If the world is just, this is exactly what should happen.

 

[NobleXenon]

That's easy, Malaysians shouldn't procreate. No births equals no gays.

Where's my check?

 

[Ratrat]

So this is going to get flooded with progay videos... Right?

What makes you think that?

 

[Jezan]

That would be a "Visit Malaysia" video.

 

[Theonik]

I'm sending the sextapes as we speak.

 

[Westbahnhof]

I'm morbidly curious about the serious submissions that are bound to happen.

The whole thing is just sad and aggravating.
I sometimes forget how shitty the world is.

Ohhhhhh boy >_>

The Malaysian population is 61% Sunni Muslim, and given that homosexuality is illegal there, it's not exactly surprising.

 

[loli pantsu]

Smh. Our government continues to fail.

I find it hilarious how the tourism board can keep saying Malaysia is 'Truly Asia' when this is not representative of Asia as a whole.

 

[TheBowen]

Straight up i read that as 'gay penetration video'

Sad that stuff like this is still around effecting people

 

[Renekton]

Zakir Naik, a radical preacher deemed dangerous by India and Bangladesh, is welcome by Malaysian government and now seeking citizenship here :/

 

[siddx]

Massive anti lgbt crackdowns are happening in Indonesia as well. A shame, both nations were far more liberal a few decade ago but the aggressive spread of wahhabism in has done a number on both nations.

 

[ExVicis]

Oh I hope so. If I had the ability to I would send in a parody movie or something.

How to get an inbox full of porn.

 

[Ronabo]

I wish the videos were public uploads that we could see. I just imagine the amazing stuff that will get made.

 

[sn00zer]

This would be a great opportunity to make a legit video with a ton of hidden messages in it. Essentially the blinking "torture" WWII interview.

 

[Mahonay]

I hope they get tons of gay porn instead.

And dont forget the wingnuts in Thailand and the Philippines. SE Asia is becoming the new frontier for intolerant extremist twats.

An anticipated and obvious consequence of "The War on Terror", unfortunately.

Whelp, tome to dig up whatever hard drive has all my old porn on it.

If I can't win, I'll make whoever has to go through these very, very uncomfortable.

 

[SirMossyBloke]

I'm sure The Whitehouse will release their own and win.

And Machismo culture.

 

[Astral Dog]

Thats a way to have people rallied out

 

[firehawk12]

IIRC there are still conversion therapies in Malaysia. It's like one of the few things that unites the three major religions in the country.

 

[wapplew]

I really want to see those video for fun, I dare them to air on TV.

 

[Yoshimitsu126]

Visited there last winter on a tour. Very diverse country like signapore but sad to see its diversity not include sexuality.

Lol.

The transsexual porn will be the best. Malaysian official: 'well, at least some people are sending us heter...Oh, damnit!'
