Govt not against 'Herald' publishing in BM

PETALING JAYA: The Home Ministry has never prohibited the use of Bahasa Malaysia in the Roman Catholic Church’s publication Herald.

“The Ministry is only against the use of the word ‘Allah’ to refer to God.

“The correct and appropriate translation for God in Bahasa Malaysia or Melayu is ‘Tuhan’,” said the ministry’s Quran Publication Control and Text Division Secretary Che Din Yusoh in a statement on Friday.

Che Din made the statement in response to the Council of Churches Youth Committee statement on Wednesday that said it regretted the Ministry’s ruling prohibiting the publication from using Bahasa Malaysia.
