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

Anuar Shaari still did not get it

According to Malaysia Today:

Anuar Shaari urges PI Balasubramaniam's lawyers to declare their incomes

http://malaysia-today.net/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=33286:annuar-shaari-urges-pi-balasubramaniams-lawyers-to-declare-their-incomes&catid=19:newscommentaries&Itemid=100131

As a layman, I can see that well known and established lawyers are financially well off. If any of them are prepared to take up a case 'pro bono' (or done for the public good without compensation or free of charge), he can not only afford to do so, he must have been sufficiently riled up to be willing to spend his precious time on the matter. Why must anybody associated with the opposition be subject to uncalled for actions by police, MACC, or the Inland Revenue?
Is there any other government institution not subject to BN's beck and call?

Judy, I cannot recall which post you are referring to. I searched using 'qi gong' within my blog and it turned out negative. If you know another more specific words used, it might show up. At the moment I just cannot recall. Sorry. Might try again later.
