Potty Nation

On Malaysiakini today.

"Police sources indicate that Tan was being investigated in connection to an Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) investigation against Deputy Internal Security Minister Johari Baharom...

...Tan’s lawyer Latheefa Koya told malaysiakini that the police were investigating a comment posted by an individual on the former’s blog.

The individual who posted the comment, re-published three paragraphs found in the anonymous website which implicated Johari and was the subject of the ACA investigation against him."


The country has gone potty. Well, it has always been that way I guess. Imagine you can be hauled up just because someone posted a comment in your blog. Poor Nat Tan. If charged under the OSA he might end up in the slammer for at least a year.

This is purely a political detention if you ask me. Just to intimidate bloggers. And perhaps to gather info from him that can be used against the Opposition in the coming elections. Nat Tan is, after all, Anwar Ibrahim's executive secretary at Foundation for the Future.

Whatever it is, bloggers must never be intimidated. No fear, remember?

Lawan tetap lawan!
