Bro, this tudung issue been going on for past 2 decades. Tudung is nothing new especially this region. Is part of Muslimah attire for many centuries. As stipulated in article 152 of the Singapore Constitution:
Minorities and special position of Malays |
152.—(1) It shall be the responsibility of the Government constantly to care for the interests of the racial and religious minorities in Singapore.
(2) The Government shall exercise its functions in such manner as to recognise the special position of the Malays, who are the indigenous people of Singapore, and accordingly it shall be the responsibility of the Government to protect, safeguard, support, foster and promote their political, educational, religious, economic, social and cultural interests and the Malay language. |

153. The Legislature shall by law make provision for regulating Muslim religious affairs and for constituting a Council to advise the President in matters relating to the Muslim religion. |
Shamungam is doing damage control. Haha....actually Malays/Muslims can actually bring this case to court. Tats the last resort. Anyway, I have Cheena friends telling me the garment making it an issue. U go mkt, hawker centre...everywhere...there are Muslim woman putting on tudung. Just an attire. Btw guess what...CNA showing Hijack of SQ117 again. Islamophobia.
