Comments for Teresa Kok, Sin Chew reporter arrested under ISA at http://www.malaysianbar.org.my , comment 0 to 7 out of 7 comments http://www.malaysianbar.org.my Fri, 09 Jan 2009 12:40:23 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.malaysianbar.org.my/legal/general_news/sin_chew_reporter_arrested_under_isa.html#pc_7888 It occurs to me that a different anniversary is coming up with a more specific relation to the Malaysian Bar. Considering the recent disturbing events, I wonder if we may yet be called upon to dig up a comfortable pair of shoes to walk in before the year is over. :'( David Soong Tshon Li - David Soong Tshon Li Sat, 13 Sep 2008 13:03:04 +0100 http://www.malaysianbar.org.my/legal/general_news/sin_chew_reporter_arrested_under_isa.html#pc_7887 1. I suppose buying time is crucial to politicians. Instilling fear may deter or suppress people for awhile, but not for long. 2. If this is not immediately reversed, whatever rhetoric that the Government may use from now on will be simply a joke, if it is not already a joke to many people. 3. The real test is on the people now. They can arrest hundreds, or even thousands. But they can't arrest millions. Whether or not our country progresses or regresses, now truly depends on the ordinary people. Ordinary people are capable of extraordinary things.

(No, not that AI; the other one.) Let this be a lesson to all you reporters out there: tell the truth at your peril. Reporting the truth is now prejudicial to the security of the nation and can lead to your arrest. Another case of M.A.D.ness. And while we're at it let's go after a few politicians, but only from the other side. Let's get them and take them away from the Klang Valley, far from the madding crowd. Selamat Hari Malaysia.

When told that the Parliament was not gonna dissolved "tomorrow", the Parliament was dissolved "tomorrow" ... And many many examples more ... Now what? ISA against the reporter and not the maker??? And RPK???

There are so many other legal provisions which provide for adequate protection to the accused to defend themselves, the use of the draconian power of ISA is unnecessary and unjustified!

This must be the last straw that kills the proverbial camel of free speech and information. Lim Chong Leong - Lim Chong Leong Fri, 12 Sep 2008 23:26:49 +0100
