That's weird..what harm could she do? her music already been here for years...youth today can differentiate what's good or bad for them...give her a space, shall we???

it would be a dumb move if they cancel the concert...it would just prove that our government are full of dumb, ignorant and very old fashion twats!!!!

i know why..... govt are desperate!

YAY! Malaysia is mentioned in NME uk and we're being made to look like idiots!

http://www.nme.com/news/avril-lavigne/39032

What's wrong with the world mama!!?? Wait. Correction. What's wrong with the freakin' government man. Gosh. Better get rid of those rempits than banning Avril la weih... That way, we'll have less accidents in this country.

I wouldnt mind it being banned since there's severe crime to music. But not suitable for Merdeka month? Then ban all those rave partys with some lousy DJs taking place on Merdeka eve. Tell me about it.

i think it's just sad that the govt is actually doing this. and i know that once they cancel this concert, the news will spread around the world on how 'unfriendly' Malaysia really are towards foreign acts. and it will look embarrasing. and i fear that it might scare off other acts to come and do live shows here as well. and that's why everyone else is running off to Singapore!!!
I'd say this is just stupid. Avril is absolutely innocent. if they say it is totally inappropriate for Merdeka month, then why dont we shut down the clubs and parties as well. those are even more inappropriate.
ahh.. the irony... talk about 'Merdeka' huh?

maybe those politician like to mabuk-mabuk rather than jumping to avril songs.

Find it ironic that it has been banned because it is not in the 'spirit' of our National Day. Didn't Singapore have SingFest in conjunction with their National Day? Odd....

If this is the case, we'll all be in Genting watching Lobo and MLTR every friggin year.

Verdict is out: The concert is canceled, and the organisers can request for a new date if they want to.

i think we better not suggest thy close the clubs and everythg else on Merdeka month, cause that might just happen... never know

this is seriously hilarious! LOLz

this is so stupid. fuck la the government. fuck pas! fuck politicians!
if they think avril is a bad influence,then what about the hardcore bands that perform here in malaysia. watafak man. they should just stick to their politics and sodomy cases. and sorry to say the youth in malaysia is already fucked up. so why cry over spilt milk? must i remind you of tiesto? everyone was wasted big time. so yeah! fuck the LAW!

MAKE A PETITION JUNK! or else more and more artist will just skip malaysia. remember beyonce? haaaaa.

This is absolutely disgraceful.
Now don't get me wrong, I wouldn't have gone anyway. I honestly can't stand her music, and the tickets were way too expensive for my liking. But just look at the precedent that this creates. I prefer not to get political about the matter, so I'll just say that certain groups will now be able to veto any concerts that are even slightly disagreeable. A real offence against freedom of speech and expression. More to the point, bands will be discouraged from performing here and organisers will stick to highly censored versions of INXS and My Chemical Romance. Few enough manage to get here as it is. And speaking of INXS, does anybody remember a certain opening band at INXS who proclaimed that "this next song is a big Up your's to Dr M"?
Don't remember seeing them get in trouble. So yes, how about some certain ultra-conservatives in this great and free nation learn to enjoy some bloody music.

Just my 2 and a half sen.

"The youth wing of the Federal Territory PAS led the cry for the cancellation, saying “rock and punk are not suitable for the young generation, especially during the Merdeka month.”" oh yeah, sure, but having a secret gang-bangs (before marriage) behind some bushes at their dormitory or a public place(doing it "ever so quietly") almost everyday of the year, even on a holy month is ok? yep, i see how you guys are "helping" the youth, way to go guys! i salute you! =/ go play in traffic!

i feel ashamed to be malaysian. now no one would ever wanna come to malaysia for concert anymore. hell to all those 'babi's!

not that i give a flying hoot. but avril's show is banned. yet a few years ago the cheeky girls performed ON merdeka day in front of some ministers, kat dataran merdeka.

this is contradiction to the fullest.

maybe if avril used microskirts and corsets, all will be ok.

Yeah she's too sexy!! If she is too sexy, I don't know what to say about Pussycat Dolls or all the girls in the clubs around KL. I think you can just stand at the traffic lights at Jln Bukit Bintang and find a girl sexier than Avril in less than a minute.

Apparently the reason of it being cancelled is not the way she dressed but the concert being not suitable in Merdeka month, there are many other Merdeka-related activities that youth should be engaged in. But how did My Little Airport get the permit to play on Merdeka eve? Isn't it inappropriate too? Shouldn't we all be freaking counting down somewhere in KL and watching the fireworks instead of attending a gig by some non-local artists?

Just a quick idea to protest the protest. Organize a get together with a pc projecting clips of Avril's live performance from youtube. That way it would snub them. Same goes for the Inul girl, it could be a two in one show. Avril and Inul youtube night or something. Then they'll protest the protest against the protest...

Sorry for the double post, but another idea to the quick idea. Instead of getting into trouble with the gathering, let's start an online Avril/Inul Fest. Everyone will be in front of their pcs, watching both artists on youtube during the time that Avril's concert is supposed to take place. If you don't want to be at home, you can be at any food/eatery with WiFi. It'll be like a flash mob kind of thing.

Any takers? JUNK how about organizing it?

xxx, my little airport is harmless twee pop. plus it's a small gig, not a huge ass concert that will steal the limelight of our so-called patriotic merdeka celebrations. pas prob don even know the gig exists!

Boohooo.....y'all just sad lil' fuckers, aren't ya. Stop yapping coz there's nothin you can do here. That's the way it is and that's the way it is going to be from now on. At least for the next 4 or 5 years.

Avril lavigne sucks anyway...just ban the bitch for all i care!!!

Well It's not the government fault.. but the Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS). Their ambition is to making Malaysia as an islamic country.. duh... what country are we living right now.. so what Turkey,Dubai and so on.. They also an islamic countary... and they are open minded. Even Dubai pon accept Madonna's Sticky and Sweet tour kt sner... Ish open la skit owg MY nih.....

then why the hell is there 'Visit Malaysia 2007' for . for u malaysian i bet u know what is that.

so if they think the concert will have a negative effect on teenagers, why does malaysia even have television, sell concert dvd, internet, and stuff?

why dont they just ban all technology and we can live in our little warm caves. ahh by that way, i bet theres no one will play here and bring bad effects to the great, friendly, outgoing, and religious malaysian people.

oh btw,
fuck u semifallen.

avril can make millions
and u cant
so who is the b i t c h now?

Fuck Avril!!Fuck Mainstream.She just a poser.i dun really care if it cancel or not..But i do care what PAS said,fuck my ass!!This country is not about you..hey,Dun Blame gonverment,Blame the opposition!!!Fuck TheM!!!Dun think sabah n sarawak will turn their back to you!!!

ban is good bcoz our country is islamic country, how can she do her concert in this blessing country hakhakhak... apart of that, her voice is terrible when she sing live... ban ban ban ban ....

just as I said people,
how come a poser and a person when sing terribly in live can inspire a lot of people including me and make tons and tons of dollars?
which u guys CAN'T.

i guess she is the one who is supposed to say like that to u guys.
if u dont like her then comment on someone that u like.
dont u just fucking around and saying bad things about people. get a life please.

oh and btw, ban is good for islamic country eh? so why didnt they ban the ISLAM religion when they actually are the one with the negative effects on terrorists and bombs, or even suicide bombs.

u gotta admit it guys, those terrorists are muslim. im not being bias to another religion, but IT IS THE FACT.

er because most of the people in this world are ignorant and have no taste in anything, just like you? i think people who are inspired by poser and bad singer have to get a life first. way to get an life inspiration. your ancestors must be rollin' in their graves.
