A GLARING problem in Malaysia and in many other countries involves the act of bringing politics and religion together in a convenient fashion to score political mileage while disregarding the effect and impact on the country.

Religion education, economic and political are different spheres of activity, so it must be diligently and responsibly acted upon accordingly without taking chances or risk.

In Malaysia we observe rampant attempts by politicians to temper politics with religion, education and economy. The result in such an attempt for the last few decades points towards the south. It only creates an atmosphere of disunity, prejudices and hatred.

Many politicians around the world had attempted to mix politics with religion, but not one of them had succeeded.

Nowhere in the world have state and church successfully merged together. Though religions are around for thousands of years, no one nation is currently in the world, democratically elected merged with any religion, and are thriving as a successful model. We only have a dictatorial merger of religion and state.

Why is it, then, that politicians in Malaysia cannot understand nor have insight that religion and state cannot work together at this point of time in history?
