HALAL for Muslim, BULAL for Hindus ??

Islam has laws regarding which foods can and cannot be eaten and also on the proper method of slaughtering an animal for consumption, known as dhabiĥa or commonly known as Halal Food. Malaysia as a Islamic country with majority of its citizens Muslims, have a very good rules and regulation to safeguard the importance of Halal food.

I am a Malaysian, but not a Muslim, im a Hindu. I know well, even when im in primary school that, my Muslim Malaysians cannot eat pork, because it is not Halal. But do you know, what are the most prohibited food we cannot eat ? Even other Malaysians( non-Hindus ) MOST of the time don't know that we Hindus cannot eat anyting related to "Beef" because of our religious believe.

In the point of a view and personal experience as a Malaysian :

Few times i been hurt emotionally when i go to shop and my non-Hindu Malaysian server ask me for the Menu :

2 years back
I and my Chinese friend went to a shop. He order fried rice. My turn, i order a fried rice to, the waitress ask me BEEF or CHICKEN ?? As a fellow Malaysian is she suppost to know that i cannot eat meat. How she should understand , im a Malaysian Indian, Majority of us are Hindus, common sense. I know some, very some of Malaysian Indians are Christians, if they want beef let them tell. But most of the time she will encounter Malaysian Indian who are a Hindu.

As a Malaysian Indian i feel : To slap her for her stupidity and does not respect other race religious believes.
As a Malaysian i feel : ashamed and embarrassed, my fellow Malaysian not even know a simple information about his/her another Malaysian, pity.

Last week
I and my family went to a TOM YAM shop ,dinner. My father place the orders and he emphasise few time, no beef, only chicken, ....... again , no BEEF, ONLY CHICKEN. Because he a experienced man who know how well we Malaysian with different religious believes understand each others, lol.
After few minutes, the foods on our table and all of us helping our self get the Tom yam to our plate respectively. The lights at the shop quite dim, and i ate the tom yam soup first when my family members still taking the soup. I bite a meat, and it taste like mutton and not chicken. And i take it out of my mouth, and it is black in colour. I straight away stop my family members before they start take a single spoon. IT IS A BEEF, not chicken. I quite temper, my father, a good Malaysian. Not make any problem, nicely call the waitress, and she apologise. She say her cook does not know we cannot take beef. The cook dint bother about the order script, does not know about his other fellow Malaysians from other race(Hindus) cannot take beef, yet they running a famous Malay food shop in Malaysia.

As a Malaysian Indian i feel : We Hindus not strict enough about letting others know about what we can eat and what not.
As a Malaysian i feel : pity Malaysians who even cannot understand fellow Malaysian's culture, how going to improve their business internationally... wasting governments effort and money.

JUST ASKING YOU(be open minded) : If your a Muslim. Even you say no PORK, the waitress make you eat pork. How do you will react ??

As a minority( Malaysian Indian) it is not realistic to ask a law to protect Hindu's interest in what we cannot eat. Ask the government to come out any ting like "BULAL" for Malaysian Hindus. I just expecting better understanding among Malaysians especially the majorities. Don't just tell to others what you cannot eat and avoid other Malaysian friends cook for you, and put the HALAL stickers in all the shops. Try to understand about other Malaysians to, because we all Malaysians , but we ALL NOT FOLLOW THE SAME RELIGION.

First fix basic understandings among the race, before talk about big SLOGONS my dear fellow Malaysians.
