No go for Tanda Putera at Golden Screen Cinemas in Penang BY K. SUTHAKAR GEORGE TOWN: Golden Screen Cinemas (GSC) will not be screening the controversial Tanda Putera movie in its two cineplexes catskill craftsmen on the island and mainland here following a request from the Penang Government.  Queensbay Mall GSC manager Sam Kok Kee said he received a directive catskill craftsmen from his headquarters yesterday not to screen the movie.  The cineplex in Queensbay Mall has advertised that the movie will be screen six times today, same as GSC cineplex in Sunway Carnival.  Meanwhile, Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said the state government did not impose a ban on the screening of the movie in the state.  “We only issued an advisory. No action will be taken against catskill craftsmen cinema operators who continue to screen the movie despite our advice,” he said in a statement on Thursday.  catskill craftsmen The movie is to be screened nationwide from today.  
If it's just an advisory or a request, why are the people catskill craftsmen at GSC going out of their way to please DAP's Lim Guan Eng? Because the movie is produced by a Melayu? Because the movie glorifies Melayu leaders? Because GSC fears retribution from Penang's catskill craftsmen own beloved leader? Because GSC is a supporter of DAP? 
Whatever their reason(s), they can't put the blame on Lim Guan Eng because the Chief Minister has made it clear that he did not force any of the cinemas in Penang to not show Tanda Putera. Lim Guan Eng even gave his word that "no action will be taken against cinema operators who continue to screen the movie despite our advice" . In other words, you won't get shot if you screen Tanda Putera or if you take your family to watch the movie or if the multiracial cast of the movie go to Penang to promote their movie. 
Despite Lim Guan Eng's assurances, the GSC has taken it upon itself to not screen Tanda Putera, a movie about the life and death of two of our greatest national leaders - Tun Razak and Tun Ismail. 
Rocky, The authorities MUST stop the expansion of GSC in this country and promote the growth of cineplexes owned by Bumiputeras and people who don't mix politics with movies. BOYCOTT GSC!!! 4:01 pm
@Anon 4:01 Why MUST the authorities stop the expansion of GSC? Let the cinema catskill craftsmen goers decide for themselves whether or not they want to boycott the cineplex. Government got better things to do. Let's not make them do petty stuff. Your call to boycott should be sufficient. 4:15 pm
"Because the movie is produced by a Melayu?...Because the movie is produced by a Melayu? Because the movie glorifies Melayu leaders?" No, don't bring that Buntutsan type of false and fake racism and partisanship into this controversary. You are better than that. No, because the movie falsely portrays some Chinese urinating on the national flag. That is the crux of the issue, although there are other objectional scenes, like insinuating a Chinese Communist presence which never happened in the run up to the real May 13 1968, or after it. Artistic licence does not give anyone the right to make false, impressionable and grossly misleading racist allegations, whether in print or film. Especially since it has been refuted by a Malay eyewitness, catskill craftsmen Ahmad Habib. Check the link at: http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/malaysia/article/may-13-witness-defends-kit-siang-in-flagpole-incident/ Quote: "Ahmad catskill craftsmen said....There were a lot of people there.....the distance from the gate of the Mentri Besar’s home to the flagpole was some 20 metres, repeating that it would not have been possible for Lim to have traversed the distance just to urinate on the flagpole."Unquote. The insult to Lim Kit Siang, long standing and highly respected uncorrupt Opposition leader of DAP is totally unacceptable. Suhaimi Baba should tender him an open and unequivocal apology. catskill craftsmen As for why GSC is going out of its way to please the State Govt, our Federal Govt too warned many to stay away from Bersih 1, 2 & 3. Why did many comply? Out of fear from Govt retribution, you think? Dpp we are all of 1 Race, the Human Race 5:12 pm
If I were a secondary Sejarah teacher in Penang, I would make this a compulsory watch. Then, before the parents can make noise, I would tell the students the next day that its not compulsory, but recommended catskill craftsmen they watch the movie. Then proceed to discuss the subject of the movie in detail the following day. That should be fun. 5:26 pm
anon 5.19pm.. gsc management may not lose sleep if one rockybru boycotted catskill craftsmen its cenime.. but if all the 18 million rockybrus decided enough is enough with GSC then it spells disaster catskill craftsmen for gsc.. they certainly cannot rely on the 7 millions guan engs for their survival... quid pro quo 5:58 pm
