Beverly Hills Hotel Boycotted Over Brunei's Sharia Penal Code

Hollywood is responding to harsh new laws in the tiny Southeast Asia nation of Brunei by boycotting the Beverly Hills Hotel. The Motion Picture & Television Fund joined a growing list of organizations and individuals Monday refusing to do business with hotels owned by the sultan or government of Brunei. They're protesting the country's new Islamic Shariah criminal law that calls for punishing adultery, abortions and same-sex relationships with flogging and stoning.

I am with the Hollywood in this issue.  Grin

These laws are only applicable to the poor. The rich are not affected by it.
