Guantanamo Bay, ISA no difference

Posted in Media Statements, Parliament on March 29th, 2007 Comments Off

Shabery Cheek must have conveniently forgotten that there are sworn affidavits from ISA detainees stating that they were forced to drink urine, and one was stripped and made to enact the crucification of Jesus Christ.

拒绝国阵”赢到完”霸道政治 点燃马接民主火种
国阵高层领袖频频放话要行动党在马接补选按柜金被 收，是国阵典型的”赢到完”傲慢。我呼吁选民，点燃 马接民主火种，检讨国阵表现，拒绝国阵的霸道政治
马六甲首席部长莫哈末阿里日前多次放话表示相信马 补选国阵必将大胜，并且以行动党候选人按柜金被 收为目标。副首相纳吉昨日也表示国阵要在马接补选 延续之前三次补选的胜利，”再创纪录”。
在一个正常、政府和在野党相互制衡的民主社会，执 党和反对党接受对方存在的价值，不会处处要将敌 党赶尽杀绝。
然而，在国阵的”赢到完”霸权政治当中，任何一名反 党议员都是眼中钉。
可是，也因为这种”赢到完”的傲慢，国阵政府控制国 91%、马六甲州议会 93%的议席之余，马华却对于涉及人民利益和福祉的事 没有发言的余地。
过去两年来发生在国内和甲州一件又一件的风波，包 巫青团正副团长希山慕丁和凯里一个高举马来剑、 个到处煽动种族情绪，关于土著股权的讨论，甲州政 府对猪农百般刁难等等，都是民主行动党代表民意、 民伸张正义。
因此，我们呼吁马接选民拒绝国阵的傲慢，反正少一 对巫统霸权唯唯诺诺的马华议员不少，不如多一个 怒敢言的行动党议员。
让我们从马接开始点燃民主火种、推动马来西亚的转 和向上提升。

Human Trafficking in Southeast Asia

Posted in Law n Order on March 20th, 2007 Comments Off

In Malaysia, there is no specific law that tackles human trafficking. What we have are the incidental laws. In fact the word “trafficking” only appears in two statues i.e. the Dangerous Drug Act and the Child Act, where it is an offence to traffic children, buying and selling of children.
