民政党峇都区部于12月9日(星期日)在峇都慕达政府人民组屋(PPR Batu Muda)，配合居民协会举办了一场穆斯林孩童割礼活动，并赞助了所有的费用。总共有30位穆斯林孩童，包括巫裔与原住民穆斯林孩童参与此项活动。
峇都区民政党服务中心协调员刘华才博士指出，这是峇都慕达政府人民组屋每年都会举办的活动，而今年则由民政党峇都区部一起参与和安排。在割礼仪式前，我们安排了志愿消防队来为孩童们进行冲洗，之后就安排他们到冼都新镇的诊所，由外科医生进行割礼手术。
"在马来西亚这个多元文化的国度里，我们秉持一个马来西亚的精神，尊重各种族和宗教的习俗。当这些孩童们完成了割礼手术回到家中后，我们也亲自登门探访，并送上一份小青包，以示鼓励。"刘华才表示。
刘华才博士也补充，这也是民政党峇都区部在推广"我爱峇都"计划下所展开的一系列活动之一。民政党将持续服务峇都国会选区的居民，并解决他们的民生问题和提高他们的生活素质。
