Human Rights Day 2011 is just around the corner. For this year’s celebration, the Bar Council Human Rights Committee (”BCHRC”) is organising a programme that focuses on two issues.
The first part will take a look at the use of death penalty in Malaysia and the impact on society, through a forum on the death penalty, and the screening of the documentary film “Death in Dilemma: The Final Curtain”, directed by Seira Sacha Abu Bakar and Khaizan Sharizad Ab Razak Dali (Sherrie), members of BCHRC.
The second part will focus on participatory democracy and the need for society to get involved, through #IdolaDemokrasi Gameshop — An Experience in Malaysia’s Democracy and Citizen Action. The Gameshop will be conducted by Edmund Bon, human rights lawyer.
