Free Speech for ALL

by | Sep 15, 2008 | Podcast | 0 comments

I can’t say that I have extensive knowledge about what’s going on last week in Malaysia. Several people have been detained by the notorious ISA (Internal Security Act). One was released, but at least a couple are still under detention. Under ISA, anyone can be detained without a trial. The simple possibility of disrupting and threatening security and public order, is good enough reason to detain someone. As many bloggers are afraid that ISA could be used to silence those who speak up against the ruling government.

Without much personal knowledge, I can only encourage you to read and decide for yourself. I am learning about it as of this post.
