:) Most of you are already somewhat aware, but thought it’d be good to make a ‘formal announcement.’ I will be working for them actually, under the Information Bureau. Why politics? because - there’s a little voice inside me, the exact same one that’s inside you, [...] DS Nazri: “As I’ve said, there is no need to revamp the Elections Commission. In the past 50 years we have not revamped any ministry.

Sorry for the late notice (you aren’t the only one! :) , but it appears I will be speaking this Sunday morning, 25th March, 10.30 am at the venue noted above.

Personally, I believe that multi-racial parties died in BN a long time ago. Even though both Gerakan and PPP can claim legitimate progressive roots that grew in the soil of integrity, they appear to [...] I met sdr Anuar at an FTA talk – a real articulate guy and good orator involved in Civil Society. Below is an article he wrote about Berembang, combining first hand experiences and pretty good analysis. * Bahang panas yang hampir membakar Kuala Lumpur dan Ampang, turut melanda seluruh negara. Ianya terlalu terik hingga ubun-ubun kepala seperti [...] A lawyer friend of mine is tabling a motion to abolish whipping as a form of punishment – focusing especially on the abuse of migrants. Do have a look at the reasoning used in the motion (reproduced below), and the gory descriptions of inhumane cruelty used as examples.
