Are you free?
Is Malaysia a democratic country?
Or a totalitarian country?
Let’s look at our everyday lives; at matters we citizens would actually give two shits about.
There was The Malay Dilemma.
Then there was The New Malay Dilemma.
Recently, a movie was banned. Oddly, for once, it wasn’t the censorship board’s undoing.
And apparently, there’s something wrong with holding hands.
Now, bloggers might be getting a Big Brother.
Etc, etc.

I have just read and signed the online petition:
“Malaysian Freedom of Information Act”
hosted on the web by PetitionOnline.com, the free online petition
service, at:
http://www.PetitionOnline.com/foiMsia/
If you don’t want to be controlled by a tyrannical state, have a V for Vendetta moment then.
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
The petition is for you. Your freedom. Your survival.
Just sign it.
