[@danielmaw5491]

​@@markodea interesting to hear your opinion Mark, especially with you living in Malaysia and being a fan or ex-fan of the 1975. I'd be gutted if I was at the festival and I don't know enough to comment on what affect it will have on Malaysians in the lgbtqia+ community. I do think that the organisers of the festival should have done their own research more thoroughly on the band though. You don't have to look too far to see that The 1975 have already been banned in Dubai for speaking out on this exact subject and that Matt Healy is clearly speaking out often and openly on stage. Did they really find it such a shock or were they maybe expecting some sort of political statement and if so, what was the agenda 🤷‍♂️ I think Matt Healy is going through some difficult times in general right now. He has been slammed by the western media and social media for the past 4 months and think he is being directed off a cliff edge personally. I think he's furious with the world and unfortunately, Malaysia was his tipping point and I'm sorry you guys had to witness it. Being young in the city, believe and say something! 😉

[@logicalrealistic3139]

Thank you for voicing your opinions. YOU ARE SO RIGHT!! Now 1975 had added salt to big wounds ...OUCH!! So close to 6 States' Election whereby the Extremists & Oppositions. Matt Healy is an EGOISTIC & NARCISSISTIC Person. Why can't he just be just a musician to his fans and not mix politics or criticise any govt & other religion? If he disliked so much of the laws of Malaysia..,WHY did he agree to come to Malaysia ? Just to prove his point, he doesn't care what happens to his fans or fans of musicor for other musicians & bands who want to perform in Malaysia for their fans. To Matt Healy, Whatever happened, he will still be paid. Sadly, because of his SELFISH Actions , Good Vibes got cancelled.. & Kid Laroi had to perform inside a hotel lobby.. #SHOUT OUT for The Kid Laroi COLDPLAY almost got cancelled.. Many fans were hoping to get 2 days from Coldplay because tickets were sold out within hrs. COLDPLAY will be performing in Singapore for 6 DAYS !!! in Jan 2024. Musicians had gone through tough times like all for almost 2 yrs of pandemic. That is why they are going round the world to perform to their fans. 1975 should APOLOGISE TO THE FANS & PAY for it. Matt Healy's DISGUSTING BEHAVIOUR DRUNK, PROBABLY ON DRUGS too "perform" on stage...as a political critic. SO UNPROFESSIONAL. WHAT KIND OF MORON WOULD GO TO SOMEONE'S HOME & CRITICISE THEIR HOUSE RULES? Ask Singapore Govt WHY BAN CHEWING GUM, ?

"Malaysia is a country that has a very high tolerance in many things, that is why we can live together in harmony" Who is it you feel the need to tolerate, other Malaysian citizens?

[@asain3586]

​@@byteme9718 Cuz there a lot of different races? Like do some research about our mix cultures

[@byteme9718]

​@@asain3586 I know all about Malaysia and its racist laws that discriminate against anyone who isn't Malay. Where have these laws and politics based on racial supremacy got you? Nowhere! The Malays and their silly religion destroyed all potential Malaysia had at independence. Not being held back by either, Singapore managed to achieve fully developed, first world status by 1990 the same year Malaysia introduced its Wawasan 2020 program to do the same. Come completion in 2020 it had failed miserably and in some aspects the country was worse off than when it started. The SPV 2030 extension, despite only running for three years, is also clearly failing. "Tolerance" in Malaysia applies only to one race, the Malays. All other groups get on fine with everyone else but you Malays are deeply resentful of the success of others. Success, achieved through hard work. You Malays want what they have but not to have to work for it. "Tolerance" is telling you not to start another massacre like you did in 1969 something you're closer to now that at any time since then. I don't need to "research" because I know how Malaysia works better than you do. Malaysia is probably past the tipping point but unless you address racial issues, and stop the descent into the abyss of conservative Islam, there is no positive future.

[@leealex24]

I attended Good Vibes Festival probably 8-10 years ago, and it is a cool, fun, free event for young people which must be supported all the way by everyone. My opinion on LGBT is that there are many non-muslims who are against it too or at least don't agree same sex marriage etc is legal, it's more of a Western narrative rather than seeing it from an angle of religion alone. I think Malaysia especially with the current government is pretty open, progressive and welcome freedom of expression, but, there are things you should not touch on. Furthermore, I find him extremely rude, does he not know he is a foreigner in foreign land and is performing in public?

No one is born perfect. Perfection only belongs to Him. And what @suria commented above is undeniably true. Homosexuality is not only prohibited by the Muslim community but is also forbidden in Christianity & opposed by the Western people as well. Try & search about the Spencer Church burning as an instance, apparently the church supported the pride movement - a 100+ years old church was struck by lightning. In the comment section you can see, even the Westerners themselves doesn't support LGBTQ+ & believe the 'burning' to be a warning from God Himself.

[@smchua99]

Thanks for your opinions and views. Unfortunately, we are going to have more red tape on entertainment because of this incident. The organisers took a big risk to bring them here, notwithstanding the frontman's past behaviours, and have even appealed and guaranteed good behaviour, so I can't say they were totally blameless. The ironic thing is that the band played 2 nights in Singapore before Good Vibes, and nothing major happened there, so perhaps Malaysian organisers and authorities need to look into that as well.

[@kimmeilim1970]

Singapore os totally different.. They are open n relax on such thing which my opinion os not good... 1975 has been instructed not go touch on lgbtq agenda (Malaysia has the right to impose such restrictions.) such behaviour on stage is so uncalled for.

[@smchua99]

Singapore is a money making spot because of the exchange rate but they do enforce their rules strictly, and if Matty Healy acted like that there, he would have been immediately arrested.

Thank God i was born in 80s, i enjoyed 90s music. Most of the western musicians, singers, bands were promoting their songs better than the generation after 2000s. Lots of female singers wear more appropriate clothing, while nowadays, it's just underwear. It's like singing skill & music are not enough to sell their songs. I remember 90s female singers like Leigh Nash, Jewel, Jennifer Paige, etc wore modest clothing compared to lady gaga, Britney, Beyonce, etc. Not to mention the explicit words in the lyrics. Good luck for Gen Z and afterwards.

[@DJL1124]

Hi Mark - thanks for the video and I do understand what you trying to say in your view of respecting culture/personal views etc. My concern is that none of the focus (or responsibility) here is on the actual Malaysian government, who decided to cancel the entire festival on the back of the brief comments made on-stage. I, personally, would argue to respect the artists autonomy to speak their views on what they believe is right. If people disagree, it is up to them. It also really didn't go on for that long. From my point of view it appears an extreme action to cancel the entire festival because a foreign singer made some "objectionable" comments in some peoples view. Hence, the responsibility of lost opportunities and profits of involved artists/vendors should be placed on the government. The comments made were also pretty brief and they did not go on for that long about it. I understand it is a complicated situation with a muslim-majority country, but I feel like you are sidelining an important moral argument concerning the rights of LGBT people which Matty decided to voice. You cannot hold a band accountable for all these losses when it was completely not intent. All this "disharmony" from this is much more reflective on the fragility of the government not to trust their citizens to make their own judgement about what was said, in place of a progressive front man who is known for making off the cuff comments about a variety of topics and issues (a quick KZbin search will reveal a lot of examples!). I think it is kind of dangerous rhetoric to blame the minor actions of the band to the clear over-reaction of the Malaysian government. Do they not believe their citizens can make up their own mind about what he said, without dismantling an entire festival? The crowd even cheered! Anyway, just wanted to share my two cents and a different viewpoint. I respect yours and the citizens of Malaysia. Giving my best to all music lovers in Malaysia and hope you guys get the chance to enjoy more shows soon. :) P.S. I will say that I thought relating this to the situation with the Qatar World Cup was in poor taste. Given that is an international tournament of the highest order - it is understandable that LGBT players and fans all over the world who have every right to participate were unhappy/upset about this - in a country where being gay is constituionally illegal and can thus be legally given the death penalty. I think saying "nobody is right and nobody is wrong" is too absolutist and to be honest, a bit of a cop out

Couldn't say any better bro. Funny tho when I was studying in the UK, there were some people (like Matt Healy) told me to integrate with the society. I respected the Law in the UK, regardless my own beliefs. Made a lot of friends all over the world, learned their different cultures and and tried to understand why they think what they think. People like Matt Healy is someone who would say diversity is a great things, but only diversity in skin colours and tones. He lives in his own bubble, even when he travelled to another countries, never tried to learn other cultures and beliefs. I do hope one he will change his way and mind, be a better person, so that people like you Mr Odea, and his other fans here in Malaysia, can enjoy his songs again. ps/ I have never heard of him nor his band. But I am not kinda of person that wish harms to others (unless a war criminals of course, that different story) I believe people can change and be a better person.

Number 3: I am kinda person who never believe in fighting fire with fire, we should fight fire with water. The Muslim's prophet once had a neighbour who loved throwing stones at him and he did nothing. One day, she wasn't throwing stones no more, and our prophet went to visit her and found out she was ill. He decided to feed her instead. She changed and embraced Islam, That's my 2 cents.

Good Bro. Honest info worth mentioning . 👍. Cos of bad mouthing , suicide their own career at the end and spoiling other wishes/dreams . Well Said Bro. 👌Respect...

[@asiaminddynamics]

Totally with you on this!

[@TheYoungMindz]

Do you know the terms "White Saviour Complex"? It happened to most Western entertainment nowadays. Everything needs to be politically correct. The era we live in. I missed the good ol' day when Entertainment just entertaining.

[@kimL93]

I agree just respect other countries rules if u dont like it at first why bother coming

[@gabbyabbybby]

Liquid courage.

[@surisuria3207]

In Malaysia, The 1975 starts with Hero and ends with Zero. Full stop.

[@byteme9718]

Their income is not determined by what bigots like you think.

[@Mabbdaa]

I think you put this perfectly. And I completely agree with you.

[@lilychang307]

Well said. Thank you

[@hasitdawnedonyou]

You worded it amazingly. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Artists today are now expected to share their beliefs about different issues and use Instagram and concerts as a platform for preaching. They are paid to sing that’s the bottom line and not paid to politicise or share their opinions on things. Malaysia is diverse, it’s so important to be mindful of others. We truly live in a multicultural society. The fact that Sabrina Carpenter performed was already huge and now 1975 comes and just ruins the Good Vibes. Whyyyy. It’s not the organiser’s fault guys, don’t ask for a refund because they can go bankrupt.

Amazing commentary with common sense.

In North Korea, Matt Healy would end up dead...

[@markodea]

hahahaahah

[@Warren_is_yellow]

I agree with Malaysia, 🇲🇾❤👍👍👍👍🇮🇩👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@tina1061]

I was not informed of the festival going on until the news and my heart goes on the organisers and everyone involved in the event LGBT+ has been a hot topic this year and my heart just breaks at these news. I may be a muslim but honestly, you do you. You dont have to be condemned for it. Doesnt change the fact that PDA like kissing is not encouraged here, gay or straight

[@markodea]

exactly!

[@TheDarnakis]

Well said Mark … They just aren’t professionals .. 🎤 drop ..

[@Aeybiseediy]

Its not just abt the religion, Even if he didn't preach lgbt, he still breached plenty of laws (which he should've been briefed and agreed upon to), such as public display of affection, being drunk in public and causing a ruckus, destroyed a private property, and insulting the government. He should be sued and arrested.

[@JimmyStewartJimmy-p8z]

Agree o'k deal what you say b'couse not wrong not manipulate not lied , its called the way of life unity n diversity is beautiful colourfull at the same time , thx for made-share this good spirit content video

[@gabzac53]

Your parent raised you well . Well said👏

[@mrstake6665]

I think canceling the entire event was a bit too harsh. Like you said, the selfish actions of 1975 not only affected themselves and their reputation but thousands of others financially when they literally did nothing wrong.I just hope the government is sensible enough to know that this was an outlier and wont impose needless restrictions. On another note, if they were trying to show support for the LGBT community in their own stupid way, they've probably set them back by years of progress towards acceptance.

[@nurawadahismail02]

Idk if im wrong, i think mereka takut kalau terjadi rusuhan etc. Cause more bad things than good. Postpone better instead of canceling terus. Tunggu all things sort out maybe? Just my pov la. Stay strong all

[@keangwooichoo6138]

They were drunk. And they criticised the gov

[@KedaiNasi]

at first it might look like that, but government already knows about 1975 being problematic but both the band and the organizer have signed an agreement to not cause trouble with Malaysia government agency. so when the band broke the rule, guess who they brought down with? the organizer as well. this is not a kneejerk reaction from the government, the band intentionally did this. without 1975 the good vibes concert can still go on but organizer risked getting 1975 in and the band blew it.

[@thegreatest4986]

The organiser and the band had signed letter of undertaking. Thts why

[@hoperissa4253]

​@@KedaiNasithe organiser must be a huge fan of the band.. that band is not that famous.. yet they risked it to invite them despite the gov previous rejection of the band.

[@haslizazainulazizdin9171]

Well said Mark. 👍This is why we ❤ u..

[@markodea]

luv u too! ,3

[@noahtriumph1560]

Maybe Malaysian should urge the government to implement concerts only for open minded and not for religious or homophobic. If they can have the largest gambling place with hotel and other adult entertainment on top of the world here in Malaysia TWENTY FOUR SEVEN why can't we have a concert once in a blue moon just for a couple hours?? Fair?

[@ilaAlia007]

What are you talking about?? Malaysia already hve few concerts incoming. Open minded- in your term is accept whatever deviant act shows in public space?

[@DKX365]

Sick maniacs should be in mental hospital like this band

[@aishahlavigne7022]

U have my respect when u said, 'we' gonna have more restrictions in a future. Tq, u see urself as a Malaysian. In a world where you can be anything, be kind, and stand up for the rights and dignity of every individual, please respect the law of the country. 1975 don't come if u hate our law

[@byteme9718]

What law? Malaysia chose to sign up to the United Nation Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This bans discrimination against people based on their sexuality. If Malaysia wants to portray itself a modern, civilised and just society then it should stick to the agreements it's signed.

[@zuritazahri]

Agree. Well said. Thank you.

[@byteme9718]

You Malays and your silly religion have destroyed all potential we had at independence.

[@jefri4176]

Thank God that stupid band cancelled their concert in Indonesia after that incident in Malaysia. If they did something similar in Indonesia,we will have big demonstration after that.

[@unknownanonymous3229]

What are you saying mark is 100% right. No doubt at all.

What a superbly balanced opinion. Thanks for this.

[@fauzianalwoga]

That's what some western people like to do😢. Just because you practice something in your country or home, it doesn't mean you should force others to do it

[@byteme9718]

Are you not aware Malaysia agreed to protect the rights of LGBT people and prevent discrimination against them.

[@Therapistmind]

You are well spoken and 100 percent correct…I do like the 1975 but Matty went too far and I too was sad to see what he did.

[@Goldenbridge777]

Matt Healy of The 1975's actions during the Good Vibes concert, which were intended as a form of support for the LGBTQ community in Malaysia, have ended up exacerbating the situation for LGBTQ individuals in the country. The actions taken by The 1975 have been misinterpreted by anti-LGBTQ groups as a symbol of disrespect towards the Malaysian government and have been used to further marginalize the LGBTQ community in Malaysia. Unfortunately, Matt Healy's behavior has not been helpful and has instead worsened the LGBTQ situation in Malaysia.

[@suhafizaazzainsuhairyazlan6527]

Sebab itu ada pepatah melayu berkata 'masuk kandang kambing mengembek, masuk kandang kerbau, menguak'. Kan dah tak pasal-pasal hanya kerana nila setitik, rosak susu sebelanga. Kalau kau berpandangan macam tu pun, itu kau punya hal sebab kan semua orang ada otak ada hati ada perasaan ada nafsu dan ada kepercayaan masing-masing. Bak kata orang melayu 'kubur masing-masing'. Tapi kita atau aku atau kau, tak ada hak nak ubah prinsip, undang-undang, kehendak, pegangan atau apa sahaja yang berkaitan sesuatu tempat atau manusia itu untuk diubah. Maaflah kalau ada yang tak boleh terima pernyataan aku tapi ini pandangan aku. Dan aku tak halang kau atau manusia lain untuk berpandangan lain dari aku. Apa pun belajar hormat-menghormati. Tegur tak salah, menyatakan pandangan pun tak salah. Yang salah adalah tindakan seolah memprovokasi keamanan sejagat negara ini. Kita jemput dan bayar kau untuk menyanyi bukannya sembang atau promo lgbt dinegara ini. Maaf sekali lagi kalau ada yang tak berkenan atau tak bersetuju dengan aku. Apa pun terima kasih Mark sebab anda memahami kami.

[@razinfa]

great performers in the past came and adhered to the laws & cultural boundaries.. if 1975 cannot do it, send them back to the airport

[@MVPA-io5ee]

It's very apparent sometimes the individualism vs collectivism culture when i saw someone's perspective and opinions. The people who respects other people before putting themselves first will understand. The people who see themselves first before other people sometimes doesn't see what's the problem where collectively people are upset.
