Not interested.
Hindus keep on converting all the time. For various reasons. A large number converted to other religions in liue of money , power or to stay alive that is on the point of a sword or gun.
Yet again Hinduism gives too much freedom and not many people even read there scriptures or books. They have little or superfecial knowledge about there own philosophies. Many know only what they read in popular media , which in turn is often propogated by non Hindu Proselytisers.In India the History we read today was written by British(evangelicals) and then communists. Both have their own ideological mission and work with an intent to advanmce there own beliefs. So they overemphasise negatives and conviniently ignore counter arguments. Hindus get education in these very schools. So they are taught these tghings only. Few people study on their own and analyse and see the other side of story.
Such people are unable to to answer questions put by missineries of non Hindu religion as the proselytisers have done there home work already. Something which never occured to Hindu. So they convert out of proper education and knowledge of Hinduism.
Yet again some Hindus convert to christianity as a "fashion ". After all it is the religion of a successfull community today. They think they are identifing themselves with winners.
Conversion to Islam is mostly for purpose of Marriage. Islam allows 4 marriages and divorce easy for men. Secondly Muslims have a tendency to get Hindu GF. And if not before after marriage, they have to convert sooner or later.
And Off course nobody is given death punishment for converting out of Hinduism.

Hindus converted to other religions not because of greed, but because of centuries Hinduism remained a caste based religion and it still is. An example is even in the 21st century many lower caste Hindus are not allowed inside the Hindu temples at particular times.

Hindus in the United States openly advocate that others join up with their group. They have their clubs, their associations, their websites, their books, their magazines, etc. Personally, I can't see why on earth this is a bad thing! It's the "Marketplace of Ideas" envisioned by our Constitution! It's why we have the 1st amendment in the first place, for crying out loud. All of this talk of "invading a culture" is- at best- garbage and- at worst- pure authoritarianism. No government in the world has the right to restrict a free exchange of ideas, which includes missionaries from other cutures, native cultural advocates, the un-aligned, and others. FREE TO CHOOSE. That's someone every single person on earth should agree on.

Off course many Hindu convert. Greed to get God in any form is so strong in all of us, so if you cant get it through one religion , you change your course. Its true with all religions. Converting religion is not wrong but if one really understand the metaphorical aspect of religion, he would surely dicover that they are principally all the same but we get entangled in the words more than the meanings.

Huh... but still got some Hindusm culture that Malay still use. Like wedding. They still practice 'persandingan'

yes many hindus have converted to islam and christianiy... for fear of death or for reward of extra money, food or a visa to western countries.
hinduism does not kill those who convert, like muslims or condemn them to hell like christians.
We know that if they were idiots to convert... let hinduism be witout idiots...
Aurangzeb the mogul king of India, converted thousands of hindus daily...but hinduism stilll survived.
