Minister slams proposal to create 'alcohol zone'
The suggestion for a special zone to serve alcohol to support the tourism industry in Brunei came under intense criticism and disapproval from the Cabinet Ministers at the Legislative Council meeting.
YB Pehin Jawatan Luar Pekerma Raja Dato Seri Utama Dr Ustaz Haji Md Zain bin Haji Serudin, Minister of Religious Affairs, yesterday said, " because the tourists know, when they want to consume alcohol, they can do it more freely in their own countries. Not only can they drink it, they can even take a bath in it too".
"Today they want this zone, later they may want clubs, then what else? Prostitution zone? Then casino zone," the minister asked.
"All these elements will bring bad name to the country," he added.
There was also a call to review the policy on bringing in alcoholic drinks to Brunei, proposed by a representative the previous day, as a measure to curb empty beer cans discarded at beaches, roadsides and recreational areas.
The proposal to create an "alcohol zone" during this year's LegCo session surprised many public members.
The Minister of Religious Affairs offered a justification for his disapproval and displeasure on the suggestions.
Economically speaking, according to YB Pehin, such an allocation or allowance will jeopardise the country's prestige in the global Halal market and be counterproductive to the Halal branding of the country. Religiously speaking, it is a transgression against the religion and a sin not only to those who serve but also everyone in the country for allowing it to happen.
While disapproving the proposal, YB Pehin Jawatan Luar Pekerma Raja Dato Seri Utama Dr Ustaz Haji Md Zain acknowledged the contribution of tourism industry towards the economic development that is clearly seen from the economic data of neighbouring countries.
However, he downplayed the need to establish such a special zone stating that the nation's tourism industry does not rely on alcoholic drinks.
"The tourism policy in this country had been clearly explained by the Minister of Industry and Primary Resources, that is to limit the importation of alcoholic beverages into the country is in line with the principal of Malay Islamic Monarchy (MIB)," YB Pehin said.
"The policy is also in line with the aspiration of the nation to become 'Zikir', the minister said.
"What we are most afraid of is the wrath of Allah," the minister added. "The wrath of Allah will not only come for the doer but others as well," he stated.
"This is why we need to fight to maintain Brunei as a peaceful country called The Abode of Peace," he concluded.

Fined for taking another man's cash at ATM machine
An Indonesian was slapped with a $1,500 fine after he pleaded guilty to misappropriating someone else's money that was left at an ATM machine. If he fails to pay the fine, he will be imprisoned for two months.
The Bandar Magistrate's Court heard that 29-year-old Syamsul Hamongan Nasution was in a queue at a bank's Cash Deposit Machine (CDM) in Pekan Muara, as he waited for his turn to use the machine to pay his credit card bills on the night of December 29, 2009. In front of the defendant was another customer (the complainant) who was depositing money into the machine to pay his car loan.
After waiting for some time for the receipt to be issued by the CDM, the complainant left the place thinking that the money had been deposited even though the receipt had not been printed out.
When it was Syamsul's turn to use the CDM, he inserted his credit card into the machine. After he pressed the 'OK' button, the money that had earlier been inserted by the previous customer came out.
Syamsul took the money, estimated to be more than $400, from the machine and went outside to look for the complainant. But he was nowhere to be found.
The court was told that Syamsul decided to keep the money in his wallet.
On January 7, 2010, the bank called up the complainant saying that he had missed his car loan repayment for a month. The next day, he was informed by the bank that the money that he thought had been deposited in December had been ejected by the CDM.
The complainant reported the matter to police who retrieved CCTV images from the bank and discovered that the money had been taken by Syamsul.
After being arrested on March 18, 2010, Syamsul immediately admitted that he had used the money to buy a ticket to Jakarta. He paid $431 to the complainant yesterday.
