I am also glad to see many Muslims were there to protect the Archbishop Simon Poh to \u00a0ensure he was safe to leave the courthouse.<\/p>\n<p>Sarawak is the model of solidarity among different races and religions. I urge my fellow Sarawakians to continue to safeguard this very important virtue like our most precious treasure.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_21052\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21052\" style=\"width: 219px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_8805.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-21052\" alt=\"Kho\" src=\"http:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_8805-219x300.jpg\" width=\"219\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_8805-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_8805-749x1024.jpg 749w, https:\/\/www.suppnewsportal.com\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/IMG_8805.jpg 790w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 219px) 100vw, 219px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-21052\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kho<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The decision of the Federal Court to dismiss the appeal of four Muslims by the Federal court to have their applications to apostate be heard in the civil high court should be respected, said SUPP\u00a0Central Women Section Chairman Cr.
