| description | This article is a three-part exploratory study of Malay sexuality. Part one
provides an insight into the epistemological and ontological aspects of sexuality
and gender; part two looks at the case of Anwar Ibrahim as one that illuminates
the ways in which Malay society grapples with issues of sex and morality; and
part three interprets the Anwar Ibrahim’s case from the epistemological and
ontological perspective of gender and sexuality. The case received much
attention locally and abroad because it involved a political leader who had
been seen by many as a probable Prime Minister. However, Anwar Ibrahim was
alleged to have indulged in unnatural sex with a few men, forbidden in Islam,
and shocking to many because of his image as a pious Muslim leader. His case,
however, provides an opportunity to analyze relevant wider issues about the
construction of Malay sexuality and morality |
