No objection to decrimalizing gay. Some laws or regulations have
been amended already to allow gays to enter the mainstream of
society be it in employment or taking up of offices of high
positions.
So the issue facing our society is not about decriminalizing gay
now.
With the past tendency of our autocratic leaders to get carried
away in so many social engineerings of all sorts, citizens are
wondering whether this latest highlighting of more liberalization
on gays including talk of openly allowing same-sex marriages etc
will be like the IR and open prostitutions further signal open
promotion of more and more undesirable activities across the
mainstream society.
If there is such a likelihood then citizens are naturally wondering
what kind of government are we having today after what they have
done with IR and open acceptance of prostitutions, what else they
might be opening up.
Citizens are therefore asking what happen to our society. Are we
the citizens being guided to practise fundamental values like
goodness, empathy, morality, law and order, community spirit,
family togetherness or even confucianism talked about for ages any
more.
This larger concern facing the citizens now need to be re-looked at
in the context of likely promotion of gay marriages or
homosexuality. Gays are already being helped to secure their rights
to employment and what more do they want anyway. Excesses in
promoting activities that might undermine fundamental values
treasured by the citizens will be just as bad and may lead to
further evil practices and our eventual declining.
