Malay rights pressure group Perkasa has urged the public and Putrajaya to boycott companies that support the rights of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community, citing in particular popular coffee chain Starbucks.

According to Amini Amir Abdullah, the group's Islamic affairs bureau head, Putrajaya should also revoke business licenses of such companies, including Microsoft.

"(Their business license should be revoked) because they support homosexual marriages and the LGBT community, which is against our country's aspirations and the national agenda," said Amini Amir in a statement today.

Amini Amir was responding to news that Starbucks chairperson Howard Schultz had supported gay marriages and the LGBT movement, but did not cite any specific report.

In 2013, Schultz had admitted during a shareholder's meeting that the company's pro-LGBT stance had resulted in a dip in revenue.

However, Amini Amir and Perkasa's position appear to echo that of the Muhammadiya, Indonesia's second-largest Muslim organisation claiming to have around 30 million members.

Muhammadiya's leader Anwar Abbas told Reuters recently that the Indonesian government should revoke Starbuck's operating license as the company's support for the LGBT community is "not in line" with the nation's ideology.

"If Starbucks only does business, then fine. But don't bring ideology here," said Abbas.

Meanwhile, Amini Amir claimed the LGBT movement was a violation of Islamic tenets, the federal constitution and the Rukunegara.

"Perkasa believes that the LGBT not only go against Islam, but it is also against the order of nature. LGBT have also never been acknowledge by the Muslim majority in this country and abroad.

"There has never been a fatwa in 1,438 years that allowed LGBT practices," he said.
