Father of Democracy in Malaysia

Bapa Demokrasi - Pak Lah

After getting so many blames from its own party members, thinking of the positive side of PakLah making me feel that he is the one that has opened up the door of democracy that has long lost since the fall of Tunku Abdul Rahman.

I'm not saying that the Cabitnet line ups under PakLah's before this general election was good or open minded, but at least, Abdullah himself had done at least, the best for its people to speak up loud. Although there have been many cases of civil-right abuse in Malaysia under his reign, his lenient enforcement(or control) towards the alternative media is one good thing he had given to Malaysians.

I believe blogging would have been illegalised should Dr M continued to rule Malaysia till now.
I believe that online newspaper like Malaysiakini and Malaysia Today would have been banned with their owners jailed under ISA if Dr M is still our Prime Minister now.


So, on the verge of losing all he has now, no matter what happen to him next, I would still like to respect and salute our Father of Democracy.

Long Live Democracy in Malaysia.
