  • Transgender Women in Malaysia, in the Context of HIV and Islam: a Qualitative Study of Stakeholders’ Perceptions Sima Barmania1,2,4* and Syed Mohamed Aljunid1,3
    Barmania and Aljunid BMC International Health and Human Rights (2017) 17:30 DOI 10.1186/s12914-017-0138-y RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transgender women in Malaysia, in the context of HIV and Islam: a qualitative study of stakeholders’ perceptions Sima Barmania1,2,4* and Syed Mohamed Aljunid1,3 Abstract Background: Globally, one of the key groups considered to be at high risk of acquiring HIV are transgender women, often a marginalised group. In the Malaysian context there has been a scarcity of published research relating to transgender women, a sensitive issue in a Muslim majority country, where Islam plays an influential role in society. Furthermore, there has been a paucity of research relating to how such issues relate to HIV prevention in transgender women in Malaysia. Thus, the aim of this study is to explore the attitudes of stakeholders involved in HIV prevention policy in Malaysia towards transgender women, given the Islamic context. Methods: In-depth interviews were undertaken with stakeholders involved in HIV prevention, Ministry of Health, Religious Leaders and People Living with HIV, including transgender women. Thirty five participants were recruited using purposive sampling from June to December 2013 within Kuala Lumpur and surrounding vicinities. Interviews were in person, audiotaped, transcribed verbatim and used a framework analysis. Results: Five central themes emerged from the qualitative data; Perceptions of Transgender women and their place in Society; Reaching out to Transgender Women; Islamic doctrine; ‘Cure’, ‘Correction’ and finally, Stigma and Discrimination. Discussion: Islamic rulings about transgenderism were often the justification given by participants chastising transgender women, whilst there were also more progressive attitudes and room for debate.

  • Mahkamah Akan Memutuskan Hak Golongan Transgender Undang-Undang Tempatan Menggalakkan Diskriminasi, Keganasan
    Untuk Sebaran Segera ***Untuk menonton video utama dan memuat turun rakaman asal: http://youtu.be/Wnl8RVYz9bw Malaysia: Mahkamah akan memutuskan Hak Golongan Transgender Undang-Undang Tempatan Menggalakkan Diskriminasi, Keganasan (Bangkok, 13 Mei 2014) – Mak nyah di Malaysia telah memfailkan satu kes mahkamah pertama bagi menyemak semula undang-undang yang melarang mereka daripada mengekspresikan identiti jantina mereka, kata Human Rights Watch (HRW) hari ini. Pada 22 Mei 2014, Mahkamah Rayuan Putrajaya dijangka untuk mendengar satu semakan kehakiman tentang keselarian undang-undang tersebut dengan Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Seperti mana yang kita sedia maklum, apa-apa undang-undang yang bercanggah dengan Perlembagaan Persekutuan seharusnya tidak boleh diguna pakai, memandang Perlembagan Persekutuan ialah undang- undang tertinggi di Malaysia. Tiga Mak Nyah dari Negeri Sembilan telah meminta mahkamah untuk membatalkan sebuah undang-undang negeri yang melarang “mana-mana lelaki daripada memakai pakaian wanita atau menyerupai wanita di mana-mana tempat awam.” Undang-undang ini telah digunakan berulang kali untuk menangkap Mak Nyah. Ketiga-tiga pempetisyen, walaupun mengenal pasti diri mereka sebagai perempuan, tetapi masih dikategorikan sebagai "lelaki" dalam kad pengenalan kebangsaan mereka, telah ditahan semata-mata kerana mereka berpakaian pakaian yang dianggap oleh pegawai-pegawai agama sebagai pakaian "perempuan." “Di bawah undang-undang sebegini yang mendiskriminasi Mak Nyah di peringkat negeri, Mak Nyah di Malaysia menghadapi risiko
