Malaysia's Foreign Minister Syed Hamid Albar, has criticised Netherlands proposed ban of face veils, describing it as discriminatory and violated the rights of Muslims.
"This is again another imbalance treatment. Why can't people have the freedom to dress the way they want to dress?" he asked.
"People can go naked and wear scanty dresses and yet you do not condemn them. And when people want to cover themselves that is their right," he told reporters.
