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

Most Malaysians are wondering about the double standard in law enforcement: an Australian senator was detained and deported, while a group of armed invaders are still being treated with respect and hospitality. The following report in The Star gives us a clue:

Sulu group members old, malnourished, Hisham tweets


"PETALING JAYA: Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said Monday that most of the members of the Sulu group holed up in Kampung Tanduo are malnourished.

“Fact: Most of the intruders old or malnourished. Wear sarongs/slippers..a few.. hv arms,” he tweeted at 9.04pm.

And that was the reason that police have shown much restraint, he tweeted..."

By the way, shouldn't our Defence Minister, Zahid Hamidi, be responsible for the intrusion in the first place?

You are right. This looks like an invasion by a heavily armed foreign force. The army should be called in to repel such incursion and not left to the police.
