@rin is it really illegal by law to drink alcohol if you are Muslim there? that's a strange restriction. shouldn't everyone be equal before the law?

@rin i don't see what's wrong with it, moose limbs can't drink alcohol, unless they're in russia though, they probably have some excuse for drinking in russia

@kaia
> is it really illegal by law to drink alcohol if you are Muslim there?
yes, shariah law applies for muslims in malaysia. not sure if they enforce this specific one, but they certainly enforce some like premarital intercourse
> that's a strange restriction. shouldn't everyone be equal before the law?
not here. I am not quite sure how it works legally speaking, but in practice its legal for the government to discriminate against you based on race or religion, and they do in fact do that to benefit malays and indigenous people (bumiputera)

@rin @kaia in the UAE you get different holidays depending on what you picked as your religion when registering, and culturally different things like divorces are done according to what's most natural for the people involved (i.e., for the divorce of a british couple, the judges would try to apply british law).
