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.)

Proof of BN's condescension and contempt for the opposition

Our Malaysian 'first class' or 'best' democracy in the world has shown its true colours. A first in the world where a Budget debate meant a PM reading out his Budget proposals one day, followed by Opposition leader's rebuttal on another day, but in the absence of the PM and other senior ministers!

A selection of readers' comments in Malaysiakini:

As usual, mainstream media highlighted only the good comments by so-called professors, professionals and experts. If we were to believe the hype, it must be a truly perfect Budget proposal.
