Muslim Organization: Prime Minister treats us Like Second Class Citizens

The Contact Organization for Muslims and Government (CMO) has stated that the policy of the new government attacks the almost one million Dutch Muslims. This expresses itself in the desire in the plans to forbid the burqa, prohibit marriages between cousins and stricter rules for the immigration of family members. The CMO also opposes the proposal to have new immigrants borrow money so that they can learn to integrate into society. The CMO adds that “civilization is not only the solving of economic problems, but also treating minorities as full citizens.” The CMO has as members a number of big Moroccan, Turkish, Suriname and Pakistani mosque organizations.
