A youth movement from a Malaysian opposition party is planning to stage a protest over the government’s decision to allow Canadian rocker Avril Lavigne to perform in Malaysia.
The concert is scheduled at the National Stadium in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur on Friday.
The deputy head of the youth movement of the Pan-Malaysia Islamic Party, Nasruddin Hassan, said they would hold a protest if the concert was allowed to go on. Nasruddin made the statement even after the Malaysian government reversed its earlier decision to cancel the show.
But there’s no turning back now. The show must go on, protest or no protest.
This will be Avril’s first concert in Malaysia, the country that has allowed performance by the Pussycat Dolls; not that I’m saying the Dolls are bad.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s the music and performance that count. If they are any good, hey, go ahead, make a concert.
