In Malaysia, 2009 ended on a somewhat positive note:
The Kuala Lumpur High Court ruled that Christians have the constitutional right to use the Arabic word الله 'Allah' in reference to 'God'.
The High Court also ruled that the government ban on non-Muslims using God's / Allah's name was illegal.
To Christians and to all sensible and tolerant people, the rulings, on New Years Eve, are a victory for freedom of religion in Muslim-majority Malaysia.
May 2010 be the beginning of many changes for the better in Malaysia.
The people have suffered under the BN / UMNO federal government for far too long!
