Its not something most Brits would take notice of. They might read a report or see it on TV, say "how terrible" and move on. It is left to the Malaysians themselves to deal with such an iniquity.

Bit like here with Muslim fathers beating daughters to death for some religious infraction, there are lots of arms raised in horror, but not much happens. Its called religious freedom. Westerners are bending over backwards to allow various religions to flourish to the extent that although North America is a Christian country, they are no longer allowed to practice their religion in schools because it mind offend religious minorities. We are not supposed to say Merry Christmas for the same reason. I can imagine going to a Muslim country and insisting on our religious freedoms and imposing our beliefs on them – and I'm an agnostic!!!
