PAS Youth has threatened to kick up a storm over a proposed concert by Indonesian dangdut queen Inul Daratista here on May 1.
“We will send a letter to the Culture, Arts and Heritage Ministry asking it to ban the concert. If the ministry refuses, we will take other action to protest,” the movement's information chief Mazlan Aliman said.
He, however, refused to state what kind of protest the movement was planning to take.
Mazlan said PAS Youth was against the concert because of the way Inul performed the so-called goyang gerudi, which was sexually suggestive.
“Inul is not a singer famous for her voice. She is popular because of the way she dances, which is inspired by sex,” he added.
Inul has shot to fame in Indonesia for the way she gyrates her hip, when singing dangdut numbers. She has said that her dancing was energetic and not meant to be erotic.
