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

If you're not going to speak up, how is the world supposed to know you exist? “Orang boleh pandai setinggi langit, tapi selama ia tidak menulis, ia akan hilang di dalam masyarakat dan dari sejarah.” - Ananta Prameodya Toer (Your intellect may soar to the sky but if you do not write, you will be lost from society and to history.)

My take on Wikileaks' leaks

"Today's gossip is tomorrow's headline." In this case, it was yesterday's gossips which become today's headline.

"Hearing something you like about someone you don't" and "No one gossips about other people's secret virtues" are basically what bitching is all about.

Wikileaks' exposes have confirmed to us that people in high positions gossip just like ordinary folks, but in secret, as in something you tell someone at a time, which in time, the whole world will know about it. Wikileaks' leaks just hastened the process.

Welcome to our world of no borders and secrets anymore!
