I remember reading in my history books about the freedom of religion being put in the Malayan Constituion, and that my freedom to choose any religion is a freedom and right protected by the constitution of this land.
Recent events have put a question in my mind. What is the question?
How come my muslim brothers and sisters cannot choose their religion? Why is it that when their forefathers made a decision to become a muslim, they cannot make a choice otherwise (according to the freedom guaranteed in OUR constitution?)
I have observed this freedom being extended to people in Turkey & Indonesia, so why not us? It is worrying to see how over-zealous the religious enforcement officers are carrying out punitive actions and having the government stand-by and watch like a eunuch. Powerless by their own past actions. I am supremely concerned that my fellow brothers and sister in Malaysia is losing a fundamental right and having the bullies descend upon them, their children, grandchildren and the generations beyond! Why the grave concern.... because, the way things are heading, we are going the way of some arabic nations where wife beating is legal.
And honor killing is acceptable!?!
Yes, I am concerned as a Malaysian.... as more than 65% of my fellow Malaysian brothers and sisters are impacted with this double constitution that has major implication as the road we travel seems to lead us to a place we cannot and must not go.
The responsibility is on the government, we are a civil nation with a national religion of Islam, but civil law is the common law of the land. Please defend the right of ALL Malaysians as guaranteed in our constitution!
Hidup Malaysia!
Merdeka!
Merdeka!
Merdeka!

We marched today to tell the BN government what we want. The polls are coming in 2013, if the BN government still refuse to change its ways and remain relevant to the rakyat, then we will change the you!
Please listen to us. We have been trying to say this for a very long time..... we are shouting NOW! We no longer want the ISA.... we do not want this act to be reviewed, changed or anything like that, we want to remove this wicked law! This act that allows the BN government to terrorise Malaysia! We want it thrown OUT!
Nazri should think about what he has just said. It was arrogant and totally UMNO! Nazri's statement just showed how arrogant this government is!
Anak Bangsa Malaysia, RISE UP! register to vote! And when it is time to vote.... remember Perak, remember PKFZ, remember Kugan, remember Teoh Beng Hock & and rest of 1,805 who has died in custody since 2003. Remember them and VOTE your conscience!

A tragic Malaysian Death!
A death of a Malaysian in the hands of a Malaysian agency. A Malaysian agency who was suppose to uphold and safeguard the country's integrity has proven itself unworthy to carry out this duty (and I don't just mean the SPRM/MACC).
And whilst everyone is shouting for the Opposition not to policitise the matter, why is UMNO making it into a racial matter! The 30-yr-old father-to-be who died is a MALAYSIAN! Does it matter what ethnicity he is!??!
My humble opinion - it is a class matter. The ruling (elite) class against the mass (normal) class. Just because this anak bangsa Malaysia is not of prominent background, does not have any ties with the elite, his life is expendable!? To the point that the government & its enforcing agencies can go unscathed and not provide an answer to the rakyat?!?!
Answer me on Kugan's death, just because he has no buddies in high places and is not of high standing (profile) in the elite class, his death is left un-investigated and unanswered. No one is brought to justice or being held accountable & responsible for his death!? Answer the rakyat! And what about the thousands that have died in police custody? What about their deaths that is being hidden! I pray that all (each one) these deaths will be brought to light.
Whilst it shows that you still have human decency to communicate condolenscences, but you MUST bring the perpetrators to justice. The people wants and demands the truth & justice!
