Phil > Pretty graphic illustration about what we have been talking about.

Indeed so. Excellent chart. And it must be very frightening --- to some.

> Mahathir's quotes: This guy is a thorn in some people's pants. He speaks his mind, but that of course is not to be allowed especially if it is at variance with what is acceptable.

Actually, I agree with most of what he says, I suppose it's because he has a big mouth, like I have. He certainly knows how to stand on people's toes --- and he is not selective!

Hovever, I do not like him. He is an unmitigated bastard, and that is not because of what he says but what he does.

>>>Malaysian police last week detained another opposition leader under the country's draconian Internal Security Act (ISA), bringing to nine the number of oppositionists now being held. Lokman Noor Adam, a Keadilan (National Justice Party) youth leader, was arrested just after midnight on April 24 after attending a rally in Shan Alam city, just outside the capital Kuala Lumpur.

His arrest follows the detention of seven opposition leaders on April 10, just prior to an opposition rally on April 14 to mark the second anniversary of former deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim's conviction on trumped-up corruption charges***. Six of the seven arrested were members of Keadilan, which was formed by Anwar's wife Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, and were involved in organising the rally.<<<

*** trumped-up corruption charges, my hat. He framed the man and then sentenced him to life imprisonment for doing sodomy on a minor and it was completely untrue.
