Malaysian state introduces Islamic currency - Part II

Contributor's Note: Uh Oh!!! This has the smell of "honest money" to it. Can't have that. The money changers will be very annoyed.

Vatic Note:  Good point and its also the money changers clarion call to war against any nation who does that, just ask Iraq and Iran; watch out Malaysia, hang in there, we will "try" to stop it all here. We, the people are not behind this or any US gov that invades illegally any nation. Notice our soldiers are resisting going back over to afghanistan because they now believe it is an illegal war against people who are unable to fight back. We have written about it on this blog just recently. We are making progress here, so do not give up).

Well, lookie here, while trying to obtain a picture of the currency, I got this instead when I put in the link, and no matter which way I tried, this always came up. They do NOT WANT US SEEING OR KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS.

So I found another article on it on facebook, so here is a picture of the currency they are discussing.

I have also included in addition, a very thoroughly discussed situation and history of Muslim treatment of currency which was an enlightening article to say the least and well worth the read.  I made it Part I of this 2 part series,  so when you read this one, you would have the background needed to understand why and how the "Zionist Banksters" may well respond to Malaysia on this move on their part.   Now I understand why the fiat currency zionist bankers hate muslims and the currency philosophy they have that used to be the philosophy of all middle east nations.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — A Malaysian state is allowing people to use gold and silver coins at stores and restaurants to revive a practice from early Islamic societies, an official said Friday.

The gold dinar and silver dirham coins provide an alternative to Malaysia's currency, the ringgit, in northeastern Kelantan state, which is governed by the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, a conservative opposition group that promotes religious policies in its rule.



The gold dinar was the official currency of Muslim societies for centuries. The value of the coins used in Kelantan can fluctuate according to market prices, but officials say it remains a better alternative to currency affected by the U.S. dollar and other foreign currency.   Kelantan authorities also say the use of such coins is encouraged in the Quran.

State officials have produced coins worth about $630,000 for use at about 1,000 outlets in Kelantan's capital, said Nik Mahani Mohamad, executive director of Kelantan Golden Trade, which mints the coins.

"It's a great, great moment for Muslims," Nik Mahani said. "We are providing an alternative means for the people to trade with."   The coins came into circulation Thursday and can be purchased at various locations in Kelantan. Their worth is currently about $180 per dinar and $4 per dirham.

The state government also plans to give employees the option of receiving part of their salary in this currency, as well as introduce gold bars for large investments. Muslim alms can also be paid with the coins.

The Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party has governed Kelantan since 1990. Some of its policies over the years include banning gambling, nightclubs and rock concerts, and requiring Muslim female state employees to wear headscarves at work.
