Malaysia - PAS Youth mulls options against beer festival (extracts):
PAS Youth is mulling its options to protest against an upcoming beer festival in Kuala Lumpur next month in conjunction with Oktoberfest.
"We're thinking about it, let's see the situation first," said PAS Youth chief Muhammad Khalil Abdul Hadi.
Khalil, who is the son of PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang, was asked if the party wing will be organising a protest against the event.
This was after PAS central committee member Riduan Mohd Nor yesterday warned the Better Beer Festival 2017 that it will attract reprisals from extremists.
The Better Beer Festival, slated for Oct 6, will bring together independent beer producers and this will be the sixth time it is being held.
This is not the first time PAS has complained about similar events.

The Better Beer Festival will be an example of how syariah laws, Alhamdulillah not yet implemented, will affect non-Muslim lives, regardless of whether they like it or not. The threat by PAS Youth is irrevocable evidence of that unwelcome intrusion.
This is why we non-Muslims must be vigilant and not fall for PAS sweet-nothing.
Syariah laws and hudud punishment (eg. PAS proposed amendments to UUD355) will definitely affect us because some Muslims especially the mullahs and supporters of PAS will continue to be intrusive into non-Muslim affairs as ever.
