I'm from Malaysia and I plan to leave sometime after Raya.

after which I've made plans to start a commune for many reasons. One of the main reasons is to provide a safe haven or home for ex-muslim or similarly persecuted people.

I'm hoping for the support of other ex-muslims, especially Malaysian ex-muslim because I'm planning to practice Malay traditions (learning what is religion and what is culture and tradition) and I think it would make sense to have people who may know more than me in this sense. I've done some soul-searching and I believe it's worth the work learning the difference between Islamic practice and actual Malay culture then passing it on to the next generation or at least preserving it so we can have a whole picture not a glorification of the ancestors.

I'm hoping there are other Malay ex-muslim who also agrees with this idea, or maybe other ex-muslims who have similar views. with enough support I believe this can be done, the more the merrier and faster.

if you want to see what benefits there are, here are what you may hope to see:

1. shelter either permanently or temporary (if you want to settle somewhere else to be safe)
2. food & water security
3. possibly hard to reach area (for those who wish to hide from muslim family)
4. simple living
5. open discussion of philosophy and culture
6. freedom of belief

whomever is interested in this idea/project please dm me please, everyone is welcome to be a part of this idea/project. if I wrote anything that is against the rules, please tell me and I'll fix it to be better.

thank you for your time and have a great day to anyone who reads this. also, I offer a free hug if you want!
