Please don’t force Pak Lah to take action!
“Do not force the Government to take action”. This must be the strongest warning from Pak Lah over the debate on religious freedom.
It would be a sad day if the Government were to take action including using the ISA against people who are concerned about religious freedom in the country.
Early this month I was asked to share my concern on current development in the country.
I said my greatest worry was whether ordinary people would be made scapegoats given the political atmosphere and sensitivities in the debate over religious matters. I said I am afraid that the Government would use the ISA against those linked with the Article 11 group.
Constitutional and state institutional power are at their disposal and we can never be too naïve that they would not used their powers to stay in power.
Agreed, Chow Kon Yeow. Pak Lah has got better things to do like pursue the 18 high profile corruption cases. I also might add that the the 18 suspects may be stirring up trouble in order to discredit Pak Lah when UMNO General assembly convenes. And when that happens, those 18 fuckheads will get away. The organisers of Article 11 forum must cease and desist. As Malaysians, we have more important things to ‘prosecute and convict!’

YB: Is there anyway where you and your colleagues in DAP can move a motion to call for a national referendum on whether Malaysians prefer an Islamic or a Securlar state? This will probably once and for all settle this unsettling matter.

Good point : when some one said he is `forced’ to take action it just mean that they are about to show their true colours ! It is better to have a Mr Mean coming out of his sheep coat than a Mr Clean hiding in one!
