Malaysia Latest News, Trends and Entertainment
From one Aliff controversy to another. For those who may not have been aware, local band Alif Satar and the Locos were set to perform at St John's Hyde Park in London, UK at the end of April and the show has been advertised on their social media since early April.
However, Malaysians found out that the venue the band performed at turned out to be a church and thus the members, especially the lead singer, received a lot of backlash online after a video of the show went viral. The TikTok user, who posted the viral video, even went as far as to accuse Alif of immoral acts at a place of worship but that's not exactly what happened.
Fortunately, the singer's friend, who is believed to be part of the event's organising committee, came forward to explain the whole situation. Taking to his Instagram, photographer Zaidan Zainuddin clarified that the church where Alif Satar and the Locos performed also served as a Community Centre/Event space. Simply put, the venue is multipurpose.
The cameraman added that a mosque should also serve as a community centre ─ a place for people of all religions to gather for events, not just for prayer. 'Why are we so narrow-minded to think that non-Muslims should not enter a mosque or Muslims should not enter a church? As I said before, Alif is not stupid at making decisions for his performance venues.
At the time of writing, neither Alif Satar nor members of his band have released an official statement regarding the controversy. Or perhaps they don't need to? What do you think?
