How should we judge a government?

In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!

"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X

Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain

Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham

"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan

Anwar announced PKR line-up for Selangor



From Malaysia Chronicle:

"Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim announced the PKR candidates for Selangor on Sunday night, fielding more big names to help his PKR party defend Malaysia's richest state from falling back into the hands of arch rival Prime Minister Najib Razak.

The high-profile new names included academician Aziz Bari, investment whizz Wong Chen and audit specialist Rafizi Ramli who will respectively vie for the parliamentary seats in Sabak Bernam, Kelana Jaya and Pandan.

Medical specialist Dr Idris Ahmad was also confirmed for the Ijok state seat, while caretaker Selangor chief minister Khalid Ibrahim accepted the Port Klang seat. Khalid will also contest for a parliamentary seat at Bandar Tun Razak in the Federal Territories.

Azmin Ali, the PKR deputy president and Selangor state chief, Zuraida Kamaruddin, the national Women's chief, Nik Nazmi, Elizabeth Wong and Xavier Jeyakumar were among other PKR stalwarts named to defend their incumbencies.

But more than the 'star-studded' list was the huge crowd of at least 30,000 that packed the Padang AU2 in the Datuk Keramat area in Ampang - one of the key urban Malay heartlands in the country.

Their response foreshadows what may well be the outcome of the May 5 general election, and is a real warning for Prime Minister Najib Razak's Umno-BN coalition..."
