To comment, pls write it in my original posting.
I picked these very good questions to be asked, from a comment appear in Dr Shabir Choudhry’s ‘Pakistan after Benazir Bhuttoo‘;
1). What is the relationship between Al Qaeda and the Pakistani secret police?
2). What is the CIA’s long-term relationship with these two groups?
3). Why did Benazir Bhutto declare Osama bin laden dead and name the most likely killer, a member of the Pakistani secret police, in an interview with David Frost? Neither blinked an eye when she made this declaration.
4). Why do the Pakistani police blame Al Qaeda first and then the Taliban for the assassination?
5). What is the true relationship between Al Qaeda, the Taliban and the Pakistani secret police?
6). Why does the US convince Bhutto to return to Pakistan? And Why does Bhutto’s death serve the Bush agenda of “War on Terrorism?
The U.S Secretary of State may got the answer, here. THE PLAN C?
Yes, The Plan C for the U.S. Pakistan Pipelines.

SUARAM's Press Statement: 23 November 2007
___________&___________
Release 3 Arrested, Allow HINDRAF Rally
SUARAM strongly condemns the arrests of P. Uthayakumar, P Waythamoorthy and V Ganapathy Rao of the Hindu Rights Action Force (HINDRAF) under the Sedition Act ahead of their rally on Sunday.
The ground and the timing of the arrests testify to the bad faith on the part of the police. It is none other than another attempt by the police to intimidate and to prevent the organisers and the supporters of HINDRAF from exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly and the right to freedom of expression.
The arrests are violations to the right to personal liberty as guaranteed under Article 5(1) of the Federal Constitution and Article 3 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The restraining order under Section 98 of the Criminal Procedure Code on five lawyers of HINDRAF, namely Uthayakumar, Waythamoorthy, M Mahonaran, S Ganapathy, R Kengadharan, and all HINDRAF supporters, preventing them from participating in the rally on the grounds of nuisance is an insult to the plight of the largely poor Indian community.
SUARAM calls on the government to look into the issues of marginalisation and discrimination raised by HINDRAF seriously instead of arrogantly setting them aside as nuisance.
SUARAM also views with extreme alarm and strongly condemns the Inspector-General of Police (IGP)'s latest stern warning to the public not to bring "street protest culture" to the
country (New Straits Times, 23 November 2007, p. 8). He was saying this ahead of the proposed rally on 25 November 2007 organised by the HINDRAF.
Firstly, SUARAM would like to point out to the IGP that freedom of assembly is not an "imported culture" as suggested by the IGP. It is in fact, a universal and inherent right
which is enshrined in Article 10 of the Federal Constitution and Article 20 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
To make a statement that the notion of freedom of assembly should be curbed from creeping into our society clearly demonstrates the IGP's lack of understanding of the law and his high disregard for basic human rights standards. It is pertinent to point out that even the currently ruling-United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) had held demonstrations against the proposed Malayan Union way back in 1946. Clearly, the IGP's assertion that freedom of assembly is an "imported culture" is unfounded, to say the least.
Secondly, SUARAM strongly refutes claims made by the IGP that demonstrations would jeopardise peace and stability of the country. We have clearly seen, the latest example being the massive November 10 rally for free and fair elections in Kuala Lumpur, that demonstrations can indeed be peaceful. In the November 10 rally, the demonstrators were largely peaceful, except when the police started using violence, including spraying
chemical-laced water and teargas, and beating up peaceful demonstrators and bystanders. Suffice to say, it is often the police, through their harsh and high-handed actions, which have caused chaos in otherwise peaceful demonstrations.
By holding roadblocks in the run-up to major demonstrations, the police have caused massive traffic jams, as seen in the November 10 rally and now the HINDRAF rally. It is clear that the police, instead of peaceful demonstrators, have caused more problems and hassle to the general public.
Thirdly, the IGP's statement regarding certain quarters who are trying to "paint a picture that the nation is in chaos" is unwarranted. Again, the November 10 rally being the latest example, on the contrary, proves that the IGP was the one who tried to paint a picture that demonstrators had created chaos by saying that 245 people were arrested when in fact only 34 were recorded by SUARAM and lawyers monitoring on the ground during the rally.
SUARAM reiterates our strongest condemnation on the police's scare tactics by sending out stern warnings of harsh action that will be taken against those who attended demonstrations. The police have also been setting up roadblocks in several major roads, reportedly to stop the upcoming HINDRAF rally.
We demand that the police and the government allow public assemblies and peaceful demonstrations without the application of double-standards, regardless of the issues raised. We also strongly urge the police to refrain from using force and intimidation to
crackdown on demonstrators, including those in the upcoming HINDRAF rally on 25
November.
SUARAM calls for the immediate and unconditional release of P. Uthayakumar, P Waythamoorthy and V Ganapathy Rao.

Reviews
"The best local political documentary I had seen... I came away inspired and encouraged." - Anil Netto, Deputy Editor, Aliran Monthly.
"Sepuluh Tahun Sebulum Merdeka best embodied the spirit of the [2007 Freedom Film] festival, with its relentless research, fidelity to the truth, and powerful willingness to question conventional perspectives." - Zedeck Siew, Kakiseni.com.
"Powerful and succinct in its story-telling, yet penetrating in its treatment of an almost forgotten time in our near past where the possibilities of what could be crackled in the air. This has raised the standards for independent (both politically and financially) documentaries to come" - Fahmi Fadzil, Bolehland.com.
"The relevance of this film to Malaysia's current social and political context cannot be stressed enough. Using as its starting point a most intriguing strategy of civil disobedience – the hartal – this film takes on issues of political participation, colonialism, freedom of association, assembly and expression, and even manages to ask razor-sharp questions about the function of a Constitution, all without skipping a beat. To have these issues explored right in the middle of a very interesting point in Malaysia's development - the state-led euphoria of 50 years of Merdeka and threats to the supremacy of the Constitution are two things that spring to mind – is courageous. To have these issues researched so thoroughly and presented so convincingly is an admirable exercise in intellectual integrity. And to have everything presented so confidently and engagingly, with such dramatic intensity, hails a most welcome development in Malaysian filmmaking. Fahmi's film will appeal to its target young audience, as well as Malaysians old enough to remember these events. A winner." - Official citation from Judges of Freedom Film Fest 2007, where Sepuluh Tahun Sebelum Merdeka was awarded the 'Most Outstanding Human Rights Film'.

Sejam yang lalu, saya didatangi oleh seorang yang menjalankan kegiatan ini dan ternyata individu ini gagal dalam modus operandinya terhadap saya.
Kesatuan pekerja sebenar seperti MTUC tetap kuat mempertahankan hak pekerja walaupun tanpa menghantar pengutip derma ke merata tempat.

Isu minta maaf dah jadi sangat penting kepada para pemimpin Barisan Nasional (BN) terutamanya di kalangan United Malay National Organisation (UMNO) setelah Namewee dikatakan memohon maaf melalui pemimpin MCA.
Malaysiakini melaporkan semalam bahawa kabinet telah menolak permohonan maaf itu.
Sejak bila para pemimpin yang sering menyakiti hati rakyat akibat perbuatan mereka selama ini, tiba-tiba berubah dan tahu perkataan minta maaf. Sepanjang sejarah politik negara ini, berapa kali di kalangan mereka ini secara terbuka meminta maaf kepada rakyat? Padahal kita semua tahu kejahatan mereka ini; rasuah, menipu, menang pilihanraya secara menipu, menghina dan memperbodohkan minda rakyat dan banyak lagi.
Secara terang pula pemuda paling bertuah yang menggelar penulis blog sebagai monyet berkata dia tidak akan memohon maaf. Eksen ko yer? Mentang-mentang bapak mentua ko PM!
Pengajaran terbaik dalam episod Negarakuku: Permohonan maaf rakyat hanya akan dipergunakan untuk keuntungan ahli politik yang tamak ini. Minta maaf bagi mereka hanya menunjukkan anda benar-benar bersalah, sedangkan bagi kita maaf tidak semestinya kerana kesalahan semata-mata.
Hak asasi kita dilawan oleh mereka dengan menggunakan undang-undang! Jangan sampai suatu masa nanti rakyat dah tak pedulikan undang-undang buatan tangan ahli politik jahat, sudahLAH!
Bosan dengan UMNO/BN? Mari kita dengar muzik.
Ini khas untuk sesiapa yang berjiwa muda saja - sebab di kalangan kumpulan muzik anak muda ini ada yang cukup prihatin terhadap penipuan pemimpim ke atas rakyat selama ini
