八点最热报 | 伊党特别点名身为基督徒的倪可敏和杨巧双，号召支持者抗议基督教、行动党威胁穆斯林，力图激起穆斯林的宗教情绪。国际伊斯兰大学政治系副教授莎扎在受访时指出，从宗教角度而言，伊党比较难打击安华和团结政府，因为他们同样是穆斯林，但行动党却是一个被他们塑造成穆斯林共同敌人的政党，因此打击行动党成本最低，取得的效果也最划算。（主播：萧慧敏）

00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the R.E.D.I.M.E. website.
00:05The I.D.A. has specifically named as a Christian Nikomin and Yang Xiaoshuang,
00:08calling on supporters to protest against Christianity and the Action Party to threaten Muslims,
00:12in an attempt to arouse the religious sentiment of Muslims.
00:16Professor Shazza, Vice-Professor of Political Science at the International Islamic University pointed out during the interview,
00:20from the perspective of religion,
00:22it is more difficult for the I.D.A. to crack down on Anhua and the United Government,
00:25because they are also Muslims.
00:27However, the Action Party is a political party that has been shaped into a common enemy of Muslims.
00:32Therefore, it is the most cost-effective way to crack down on the Action Party,
00:35and the most cost-effective way to achieve this goal.
00:37Professor of Political Science at the International Islamic University, Huang Jinfa, also believes that
00:39for the I.D.A., attacking the Action Party is a double-edged sword.
00:44If the Action Party reacts violently, it is easy to infuriate Muslims.
00:47However, if the Action Party reacts mildly,
00:49it will be ridiculed in the Chinese community and become the Mahua 2.0.
00:53Therefore, for the I.D.A., no matter what they do, they are both winners.
00:56And for the Action Party, no matter how they respond, they are both losers.
01:01Huang Jinfa pointed out that from the perspective of the I.D.A. and the National Alliance,
01:05it has always been the lowest-cost political method to demonize the Action Party.
01:09At present, there is no right-wing that can pull Anhua down,
01:13and it can only be done through this method to maintain the morale of the party members and supporters.
01:19Because the Islamist party does not have a positive right-wing,
01:23they are not prepared or able to compete politically with Anhua.
01:28So since I can't compete with you politically, I will destroy you.
01:31Since I can't compete with you politically, I will destroy you.
01:37This is part of their playbook, right?
01:39This is something that we expect, especially from the past,
01:42even though we hope that they have moved away from this kind of politics.
01:46But we know this is a low-hanging fruit for them, I guess.
01:50And an opportunity for them to show that it's not just about relevance,
01:54but also that they have support still among the Malay population.
01:59So it's more about that. It's just a continuation of the same old, same old politics.
02:03Huang Jinfa, a political scholar at Shuangwei University,
02:05and Shazza, a vice-professor at the International Islamic University,
02:08both believe that the I.D.A. calls for the support of the Anti-Semitism Action Party,
02:11which is their usual political trick,
02:13not only to show their presence, but also to demonize the Action Party.
02:17Huang Jinfa pointed out that the I.D.A. is actually a double-edged sword.
02:21Because if the Action Party reacts violently, it can incite the Malay people's fear.
02:25But if the Action Party responds in a low-key way,
02:27it can also make non-Muslims feel discouraged,
02:30and think that the Action Party is the Mahua 2.0 in the end.
02:34It's a double-edged sword.
02:36The first trick is to make the Malay people feel that the Action Party is very powerful and very scary.
02:43But the second trick is to see how the Action Party responds.
02:48Because if the Action Party responds violently, it helps to keep a low profile.
02:53But if the Action Party responds in a very gentle way,
02:57it will make non-Malays and non-Muslims feel disillusioned with the Action Party and the Mahua 2.0.
03:05So both sides can win.
03:08Shazza also believes that in this situation,
03:11it's not the Action Party that wins, but the Action Party that loses.
03:14Because no matter how the Action Party responds,
03:16it will only make the Malay people feel disillusioned.
03:18For the Action Party,
03:19the Action Party is not only the easiest target to attack,
03:22but also the most obvious common enemy.
03:24Because from the perspective of race and religion,
03:27attacking the Action Party is easier than attacking the Hutong and Mahua.
03:31It can also put various negative labels on the Action Party.
03:34I don't see that it's fast winning all the time,
03:37but I see it as the D.A.P. losing all the time.
03:39It's like the D.A.P. can't do anything right.
03:41If the D.A.P. or Hana is trying to bring her suit, her case, to the appeals court,
03:47all of this will allow them to stress that,
03:50see, these non-Muslims are continuing to come after us,
03:54they're not backing down,
03:55so they're going to increase their rhetoric, etc.
03:58So that is a win for us.
04:00They can say,
04:01proven, look, the D.A.P. is not going to stop now.
04:04But if the D.A.P. becomes weak and they don't respond,
04:08I think the winner from that is actually the M.C.A. itself.
04:12In the face of this situation,
04:14Huang Jin-fa believes that
04:15hitting a snake is hitting a 7-inch,
04:16and must hit the enemy's weakness.
04:19And the D.A.P.'s weakness is the next election regime.
04:22So it must make the D.A.P. realize
04:24that if the non-Muslim or Christian groups are too aggressive now,
04:29then the East Asian parties will intervene,
04:31and even refuse to cooperate with the D.A.P. in the next election.
04:34So the only way for the Action Party is to violate the Constitution.
04:37So who is going to violate the Constitution to save the Action Party?
04:41Only the East Asian parties.
04:42Because basically,
04:44if the whole D.A.P. makes the East Asian parties feel that
04:48they have crossed the red line,
04:50then the Islamist parties will retreat.
04:51Because the Islamist parties will still want to say,
04:54if I can barely organize the government in the next election,
04:58I have won the majority in half the party,
05:00but not to the 1.1.2.7.
05:02I still want the East Asian parties in the end.
05:03If I break the bridge of the East Asian parties today,
05:06then I will lose a lot.
05:07In other words, for the Islamist parties,
05:09if you want to play the game of cultural war,
05:13you have to be able to confront the Islamist parties
05:17and our cultural war.
05:23Huang Jinfa, a political scholar at Shuangwei University,
05:25thinks that since the Action Party responds to both sides,
05:29then the best way must be to hit the snake,
05:32hit the seven-inch, hit the D.A.P.
05:34He pointed out that if the East Asian parties want to win the next election,
05:36it is not enough to just rely on the will of the West Asian parties.
05:40It must be supported by the East Asian parties to be able to govern.
05:43Therefore, the Islamist parties continue to walk the path of race and religion.
05:46It is impossible for the East Asian political parties,
05:49which emphasize the diversity of social groups,
05:50to organize the central government with the East Asian parties.
05:52And if Prime Minister Anwar wants to solve this problem,
05:54then the East Asian parties must directly stop the Islamist parties.
