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.)

Dataran Merdeka means Independence Square


The irony of it: Dataran Merdeka is supposed to be symbolic of our independence from past colonial British rule since 31 August 1957, yet this very place is closed to the public who wish to express their protest against unfair election rules, its administration and its implementation.

Almost 55 years after getting rid of the British, we are now being colonized by our own people, a select minority with control over all the institutions and now refusing any attempt to correct the situation.

Bersih is for clean and fair elections, so any attempt by the incumbents will only reflect their refusal to give up their current advantageous position and be open to a fair contest to elect those who are really wanted by the people.
