That’s what happened over the weekend. Three citizens of Malaysia were detained under ISA for speaking the truth.
- Raja Petra Kamarudin — Blogger, Malaysia Kini
- Teresa Kok — Blogger and Member of Parliament (3rd term) from the Democratic Action Party (DAP)
- Tan Hoon Cheng — Award winning journalist, Sin Chew Jit Poh (Freed, serving the shortest detention period – detained for less than 24 hours)
Previously, Abdullah Badawi encouraged journos to uphold the truth.
They did and they got detained.

Yes, the Prime Minister has smartly given us all the finger. Picture from the Star.
