It is a sad day for one to think that by placing Uthayakumar in the Detention Camp meant for real time terrorists and murderers whom the Police are UNABLE to convict becuase of the inability to fix proper charges against them, the Powers That Be have gone back to the old age remedy of the British and followed by our erstwhile PMs to place people who are a thorn in their sides into unapproachable stink holes.
Fasting to death is an age old tradition for the Indians. It can or could lead to extreme situations unimaginable. How many times did Nehru have to plead with Ghandi to stop his fasts.
There is madness hanging like a mantle over Malaysia. Everyone seems to be mad. Even the Police have become brutal. They are already equalising the famous CHEMICAL ALI of Iraqui fame to use high doses of chemicals in the water cannons. Next there is the possibility of chemical gases in cannisters instead of tear gas.
Oh, Dear. what is Malaysia coming to. Did the old coot know that all these are going to happen when He handed over the Premiership to one who would not have been able 'to hold the running steeds." The quandry that Malaysia is in today cannot and should not be placed on the head of our PM. He is a victim of circumstances for having unwittingly taken over the post of PM. The real damages in amending the Constitution; giving false hopes to the UMNOPUTRAS and the Bumiputras ( how do you say one is bumiputra when you look at him in the dark ) and messing one of the world's finest judiciary are some of the clear messes for which all Malaysians are now paying for.
People like Uthayakumar cannot be left to die. the non Indians should understand that. There could be greater dangers ahead if the situation overall is allowed to deteriorate.
