How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

Government fed by the people

Dear Sir,

Petition to KTMB for a scheduled stop at the old Batu Gajah train station

I wish to draw the your attention to a long standing problem of inconvenience, especially to the old and disabled train travellers of Batu Gajah (including those who visit the town), since the opening of the new KTM Stesen Batu Gajah.

In our online petition, http://www.petitiononline.com/bgtrain/petition.html ,we are now appealing to KTMB to consider having another stop at the old station simply because of new station's inconvenient location, which is 2 km from the main road which has bus services, and because of the public perception of security problems when arriving at night.

We feel we have been cheated of our convenience with the old station and the least KTMB can do is to undo the obvious mistake it had made in the choice of location of its new station. The problem will continue for as long as there is no attempt to rectify it. KTMB has a choice of ignoring our appeal or be a good corporate citizen by acceding to our reasonable request.

Yours faithfully,

K. S. Ong
and on behalf of those who have signed the Petition
