ISA is abusive

The Internal Security Act cannot be used as a pre-emptive strike weapon to whomever that the state sees as a threat.

Technically the Federal Constitution is subservient to the ISA as legislators willingly molested the Federal Constitution.

What shocks me even more than that is the authorities unwillingness to release a ISA detainee simply because he can’t sing Negaraku. Its ridiculous.

Oddly enough the Singaporean terror suspect, Mas Selamat Kastari, happens to be more comfortable in detention under Malaysia’s ISA rather than the Singaporean one.

Doesn’t this prove that the government is holding on to false premises that is irrelevant to current times.

Hence, instead of getting more feedback from the so called public, it is best that the government provide the bite for Suhakam and implement their recommendations as a first step.

Reviewing the Indian community empowerment dream

Hindraf activist and Human Rights Party pro - tem secretary general, P Uthayakumar’s book is the first to be under scrutiny.

Going by its title, there appears to be a huge masterplan laid by Uthayakumar in his 109 pages of Engli
sh and Tamil bilingual book.

For a book with a grand plan title I am disappointed that the author only has one point to empower the Indian community politically.


Gerry - mandering appears to be sole tool towards political empowerment.


The book also took a jibe at DAP for not standing up for the Indians. I remember speaking to the author prior
to his trip to London. He said that HRP would be filling the void of an Indian party in the opposition front. It makes me wonder how HRP is going to fill the void of an Indian based opposition if it continues to take pot shots at its future allies.

Also going by its current issues against the interest of HRP, would the party see the dawn of 2012-2013 when Malaysia once again holds a general election?
