Amidst the shrill rhetoric over divisive issues at the national level, a surprise guest quietly dropped by at the home of Pas national unity bureau chairman Mujahid Yusof Rawa in Parit Buntar over the Raya weekend.
Mujahid wrote the following on his Facebook:
Ziarah Uskop Katolik Wilayah Utara, Sebastian Francis di rumah saya di Parit Buntar sempena Raya. Uskop yg mendokong usaha LPN (Lajnah Perpaduan Nasional) mencapai keamanan dlm hubungan antara agama. Mengiringi Uskop ialah wakil gereja Katolik Parit Buntar. TQ moga hubungan antara agama tercapai dgn keamanan dan kemanusiaan.
The Raya invitation to visit Mujahid in Parit Buntar was extended to Bishop Sebastian by ‘bridge builder’ Abdul Rahman Kasim (below), the Tasik Gelugor Pas information chief who works closely with Mujahid on interfaith dialogue initiatives including those with Christians.

Let’s hope more and more Malaysians build bridges rather than walls.

I think a bigger Raya surprise for me is that the private doctors are planning to hike their fees by 30%
Looks like Barang Naik disease is catching on.
This is the type of Inter-Faith dialogue which mainstream media do not pick up.
If such event is announced eg in Utusan, we shall see some sort of frenzy show of singular faith almighty fever.
Kitchen soup for the soul, alright! God bless all you progressive and true Malaysians.
