KoSong: Freedom for Raja Petra today

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

Freedom for Raja Petra today

I was just about to put this picture of Raja Petra in my blogsite to be taken off upon his release, when I came across LKS’s great news that the court has ordered for his release today.

I am happy for him and his family - time for them to rejoice over his freedom.

We have taken ours for granted. There are still more than 60 detainees being kept from their families. It would be best if Pak Lah can free them before he hands over his baton to his successor.
