The "Passion" in Malaysia

Re: Malaysia screens 'Passion' -- for Christians only

Muslims will not be permitted to see The Passion of the Christ. [They are not allowed by law to convert from Islam, either; conversions to Islam from other faiths are not proscribed, however.]

A decade ago, then-PM Dr. Mahathir Mohamed (Dr M as he was Orwellianly known), banned Schindler's List, for "being sympathetic to Jews" and not adequately showing the German side of the story (see TV and Film Censorship in Malaysia).
