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

Kajang by-election: Would you vote for someone who is known for being inconsistent and without determination?

Zaid has displayed all those 'qualities' over the years, and based on comments from others, he should stick to being a successful lawyer and be better liked for his articles as a blogger.

He stands out as one who resigned as minister on a matter of principle. But his fickle-mindedness in politics has been described by some as crazy or out of his mind. He announced that he would stand in the Kajang by-election, subject to approval from his wife! Then, with wife's approval, he confirms that he will be standing for election. But I am half-expecting him to change his mind.

Kee Thuan Chye has more to say about his inconsistencies...

'What the hell is Zaid Ibrahim doing? He claims, in a Q&A with theSun, that he’s a Pakatan Rakyat supporter and yet he has declared his intention to stand in the upcoming Kajang by-election against Pakatan’s de facto leader, Anwar Ibrahim.

This is downright contradictory. It also gives the impression that he might be trying to settle an old score with Anwar’s Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), and even Anwar himself.'
