KUALA LUMPUR: The Yayasan Dakwah Islamiah Malaysia (Yadim) today protested against the Miss/Mrs Plus World Malaysia 2020 Grand Final Gala Night, which is scheduled to take place on Jan 2 at a hotel in the capital.
Its president, Nasrudin Hassan, said the programme exploited women and nurtured a hedonistic culture.
“Furthermore, now that we are still facing the Covid-19 pandemic, any form of non-essential assembly should be avoided as there is a risk of transmitting the virus despite complying with the SOPs set,” he said in a statement today.
Nasrudin said that Yadim called on the government to take appropriate measures.
It said it will submit an official protest to the organiser and local authorities on Monday.
