Visit by the Maldives Deputy Ambassador & Mauritius First Secretary to IEcM

On May 10th 2015, His Excellencies Fahmy Hassan from Maldives and First Secretary Vikash Neethalia from The Republic of Mauritius was present in Melaka on an official capacity to attend a ceremony with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib in Melaka.
As we have been previously acquainted with His Excellency Fahmy Hassan during an earlier dinner outing here in Melaka, on this trip he introduced to us his friend Vikash from The Mauritius Embassy.

The evening outing was an eye opener for Vikash as this was his first visit to the Historical City of Melaka.


IEcM member Bharat, Kumar and Karthik joined me on the two days our friends were in town to wine and dine them to the unique hospitality of Malaccans.
IEcM 's offer to their respective embassies to join us in our effort to strengthen our members network bonds and also the offer by the Indian Embassy in KL to enter into a intra regional business pairing and networking session was raised during this visit and received good feedback and interest from the duo.

The interesting duo were steadfast in their appreciation of our time and efforts and plans are now afoot to have us visit them in their respective countries and embassies in KL.

What is a 'HINDU' ?

In 1995, Chief Justice P. B. Gajendragadkarwas quoted in anIndian Supreme Court ruling:

When we think of the Hindu religion, unlike other religions in the world, the Hindu religion does not claim any one prophet; it does not worship any one god; it does not subscribe to any one dogma; it does not believe in any one philosophic concept; it does not follow any one set of religious rites or performances; in fact, it does not appear to satisfy the narrow traditional features of any religion orcreed. It may broadly be described as away of life and nothing more.

Common Misunderstandings on Hinduism

Vedanta (and all Hinduism) is entirely monistic, believing only in the all-pervading world-soul, Brahman, rather than a personal God

This advaita philosophy is certainly popular, and offers a simple explanation of the many deities. Nonetheless, many theologians have considered God to be a person. He is not merely an anthropomorphic representation, nor are the various deities and murtis simply incarnations or representations of an impersonal Supreme.

Thus Hinduism includes both monism and monotheism. It is misleading to call the Abrahamic religions,"the monotheistic traditions," implying that monotheism is absent from the Eastern traditions. Vedanta includes many monotheistic schools. They may accept the existence of many gods and goddesses, but strongly emphasizes the pre-eminence of the Supreme Deity.
