I read this from Jeff’s post which leads me to mStar. I shall give a brief translation of what transpired. Some groups went to an icecream company to tell them that they found the cross which is a symbol of Christianity on their icecream. They made a police report.
Ketua Polis Daerah, ACP Rosli Ahmad mengesahkan bahawa pihaknya telah menerima laporan itu.
Beliau enggan mengulas lanjut.
Dr Izham memberitahu pemberita pihaknya bertindak demikian selepas menerima aduan daripada beberapa orang pengguna yang menyedari kewujudan imej salib pada produk keluaran syarikat itu.
Well, I have a whole packet of the icecream in my fridge, It is the kids’ favourite because of the energetic advertisement of moOOOO.
Itu abjad t lah! On the other end of the icecream, is a capital T. This is small t.
My brothers and sisters in Christ, if a little t like this on a kids’ icecream is already not tolerated, have you wondered what challenges await us in future?
“You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” This is our Lord’s word to depend on. **Please do not ridicule any parties in your comments!**
But when t is seen as obnoxious, think what is life without t-junction, t-tool, t-square……Let’s destroy all the t in the world! Moo_t and mott – Two of you are forbid to use your nicks. Hehehe.

Let’s talk about history.
Under the ancient China where the confucius teaching infest the culture, there is one absurd rules call “name circumvent”, which mean to “pay respect” to so and so. For example, if the emperor name has a “Kau” word in it, so this is what happens
- everything that sounds like “Kau” must change to something else
- pronounce Kau as something else
- When writing the word Kau, you must pay respect to “sanction” some portion from the glyph(ok, don’t ask me why, this is how confucius follower thinking, not mine)
- If your surname unlucky use the word “Kau”, change your surname.
- Sanction the word at all or avoid to speak it.
So during Tang dynasty, the 2nd emperor is call “Lee-Shi-Ming”, because the “Shi”, the female buddha “Kwan-Shi-ying” name is force to change to “Kwan-Ying”.
During the Ching dynasty(1662 -1911), a scholar decapitated because he wrote the emperor father name in proper glyph instead of “cut off” some portion of it.
Yeah, human history is full of “Duuut” activities.

why should there even be design on a kiddie ice cream biscuit? when i was a kid, i had plan wafer ice cream. Why can’t they make things plain? Once you have plain thing, then no one will claim they are offended because its plain. Plain is safe, plain is good. At the end of the day the biscuit and the ice cream will end up in the stomach.
I am quite sure if you print any design, someone will find it offensive. Watch da vinci’s code. Symbols are everywhere and they can be interpreted into one thing or another.
so lilian, is the mooooo better than those good old days PLAIN wafer ice cream? want to know before i splurge on it.

I wonder whose religion is being attacked. Christians are being made to look like evil brainwashers who only want to lure more and more people into their religion. Sad sad country. And as usual the more important problems in our country are being sidelined for this sort of rubbish. Malaysia Boleh indeed.

Then hospital also kena close down lor because ‘beroperasi secara haram’ due to some ‘offensice’ symbols. Siao wan!
The screw also cannot use lor because got cross symbol. Later ban the usage of screw we have to use another type with the minus sign wan.
Kids will be happy because no need learn addition in Maths due to the plus symbol deemed as being ‘offensive’
Also the close window button at the top right corner because it is a slanted cross…tak boleh pakai
They watch too much Da Vinci Code lar! Design on biscuit only need to bising-bising for what? After chewing and swallowing will be digested to sai oredi lar! *shake head*

i’m speechless…
there’s an obvious increase in religious and racial issues lately….what is becoming of our beloved Malaysia.
our Lord’s words ‘You of little faith, why are you so afraid?’ should be knocked into their heads. I doubt they even understand the word ‘faith’.
Those people themselves are in serious need of religious guidance from their ulamas etc…*shakes head.
How could morons like them even exist? i’m disgusted!

When talking about sensitivities;
The swastika symbol in Germany today is very sensitive, But what about those in Indian temples.. what is bad for the Germans may be Good to the Hindu (I seriously don’t know what the Hindu swastika means. But is the same hindu goes to germany and installs a swastika in front of his house I can guarantee for sure the cops are going to appear.
Burning a National flag can indicate insult to a flag being burnt i.e., In protest of the gulf war. But burning a flag in mourning of the loss of public freedom and liberties can be out of sheer patriotisme showing the loss of what the stands for.
Open minded is eating the biscuit knowing full well that design do not affect the designs on your heart and soul. But what if a person being narrow minded serves the biscuit to a muslim at the same time saying “eat and don’t worry about the cross/t”. THat would be highly insensitive.
For some people their faith is embodied in their heart and soul. For some religious symbolisme is an outwards expression of the faith.
Sensitivities work both ways. Don’t wear a party dress to a funeral, and please people don’t mourn at my parties when I throw them.
Take life with a pinch of salt. Don’t keep thinking that everybody is out to get you (though sometimes they are…). Be nice to people. Remember life is too precious and too short.

1st, it’s just food. Who can be so wu-liao to have time to scrutinise a piece of biscuit and make a big fuss out of it? If wanna scrutinise everything, then no time for other activities lo. In fact, might as well don’t have a live, just dedicate oneself to look for symbols and analyse them.
2nd, if everything is made plain because it is safe and good, then wouldn’t this world be a very plain, dull and boring world? Designs represents creativity, it represents how we use the gift/talent that is bestowed on us by God.
3rd, these so-called symbols are not found only in man-made designs/things. If we were to look around us carefully, Mother Nature does carve her own symbols. What then? Destroy Mother Nature just because she portray the wrong/different symbol?
10:00 am on November 16th, 2006 36
Police report eh? I thought police only tangkap criminals! Is it a crime for using a “t” as design?? Then create a new law to ban all “t”s symbol ( so no more fuss!!) To those paranoid duds! Just refrain from eating or buying those ice-creamlor!

i remember that back in 1973, our school’s metal badges were confiscated for having a yellow cross in the middle and we are only allowed to wear the new ones without the cross. Methodist Girls School, mah, thats why the badge has a cross in it. Didnt know nowadays, biscuit oso suffers the same fate as the badge.
