I was invited to give a short speech before mass at a Church in Shah Alam last Sunday, sharing with fellow Christians my spiritual journey.
Unnecessary laws to curb ‘unnecessary by-elections’ are a farce.
The government’s unholy haste to enact a law to prevent by-elections it deems “unnecessary” and impose fines of RM100,000 on those who quit wakil rakyat positions and force by-elections, is appalling and an insult to freedom and democracy. Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz’s definition of ‘unnecessary’ is vague and gives the impression the new…

马华建议把内安法令易名的做法，显示马华并不反对内安法令
行动党士布爹区国会议兼行动党组织秘书员郭素沁于2009年4月5日在太平发表的文告： 马华建议把内安法令易名的做法，显示马华并不反对内安法令 马华妇女组主席周美芬欲把内安法令易名为“反恐怖法令“的建议，显示马华公会并不真正反对内安法令。 众所周知，政府当年制定内安法令是为了要对付共产党而用，随着共产党的消失，这法令已经不再适时宜，早该废除。 多年来，掌权者利用这法令里“无须审讯拘留“的便利，来镇压政治异议分子，这也是数十年来人民反对内安法令的原因。 周美芬应该记得，国会在数年前修订了刑事法典和刑事程序法典，纳入恐怖主义和惩罚恐怖份子的条文。我国既然已经有刑事法典来对付恐怖份子，我们根本就不需要内安法令。 我呼吁周美芬勿在这课题上采取模陵两可的立场，而建议以易名来解决这恶法，因为这立场根本就治标不治本，无法阻止该法令被掌权者滥用来打压政治异议份子。 郭素沁
