Solidaritas Buat Raja Petra Kamaruddin (Editor Portal Berita Malaysia Today)

Di ambil dari milis IndoProgress

Hello friends and colleagues,

Sorry for sending you this if I don't really know you but it is a rather urgent matter. Please read the information below which is an appeal to the Malaysian government to release blogger Raja PEtra Kamaruddin from detention under the Internal Security Act. All you have to do is go to this website and press "send" to the various ministers in charge and it goes instantly. Currently, there are 64 detainees under this draconian Act that was originally targetted at communist insurgents put in place under the BRitish colonial government.

Thank you.

The events leading to the unjustified and fascist attempt to silence RPK by the Government of Malaysia:

1. Raja Petra Kamarudin is a conscientious citizen of Malaysia who set up the Malaysia Today website http://mt.m2day.org/2008
2. RPK contributes articles under the NO HOLDS BARRED column that exposes scandals of the ruling elites in Malaysia, the chronological events leading to his incarceration in Kamunting camp (similar to Guantanamo Bay Cuba) for an additional 2 years are well documented in his articles.
3. The Government of Malaysia have legally harassed RPK in Malaysian courts but have been unable to stop him under the legal system
4. The charges of inciting violence trumped up by the Home Minister of Malaysia is laughable and can not stand up in any fair court of law RPK is a victim of the infighting between the ruling elites of Malaysia who resorted to an Act used for TERRORISTS to silence him
5. The ISA is an unjust law, can be abused on any Malaysian and victims are NOT ALLOWED ANY LEGAL OR JUDICIAL REVIEW!
6. Your assistance can help repeal this law, and in doing so, will ensure YOUR COUNTRY will never formulate and abuse such a law

Please free Raja Petra Kamarudin and repeal the Internal Security Act immediately.

in solidarity,
