Anyone for sanitized wayang kulit (shadow play)? Visit Kelantan, Malaysia. I thought only communists purge "decadent" elements from a country's cultural heritage, looks like PAS is following suit. Even Makyong and Dikir Barat has been banned.

The new "wayang kulit" approved by PAS will not depict tales from Ramayana and Mahabarata but will depict ordinary folks. Cultural revolution, PAS-style.
