The government should act against Ahmad Ismail and not on the reporter who was merely carrying out her duties assigned to her. Arresting Tan under the ISA is tantamount to taking action against the person carrying the message and not against the messenger himself. The people have registered their disgust at this recent arrest and I personally share their feelings. Ahmad Ismail should not be allowed to escape with just a three-year suspension from UMNO for making sensitive remarks while Tan has been "victimised" This goes against the tenets of democracy as espoused by the Barisan Nasional in the 8 March General Election and not consistent with the spirit of the Barisan Nasional coalition.
Similarly, the government should not detain YB Teresa Kok and Raja Petra. If the government feels strongly that they have broken any laws, then charge them under the relevant laws.

果敢地对付滋事者！
政府应该采取行动对付阿末伊斯迈，而不是对付只是执行被指派任务的记者。当局在内安法令下逮捕陈云清，等于是采取行动对付传达信息的人， 而不是对付发出信息的人。人们对最近的逮捕行动感到厌恶和反感，而我本人也有这个感受。阿末伊斯迈由于发表敏感的言论而受到的惩罚，不应该只限于被中止巫统党员籍三年，而陈云清则成为了牺牲者。这是违反国民阵线于3月8日大选时维护的民主原则，而且也不符合国阵联合政府的精神。
同样的，政府也不应该逮捕郭素沁和拉惹布特拉。如果政府强烈认为，他们触犯了法例，那么，就应该援引相关的法令提控他们。
逮捕星洲日报的记者
我万分不同意，而且非常反感政府援引内安法令逮捕星洲日报的记者陈云清。身为一名记者，陈云清只不过执行指派给她的任务。此外，她所写的新闻稿，在刊登以前已经被编辑审阅过。
援引内安法令逮捕陈云清，不但违反了言论自由的本质，而且也让民众觉得，政府封锁资讯，进而引起人民的不满，可能还会导致谣言满天飞。这也将造成人民从阅读传统的主流媒体，转为浏览部落格和互联网，而有些部落格和互联网，则可能被某些集团所利用。如果政府认为，陈清云触犯了任何法例，当局应该援引相关的法令提控她。

So your outrage will be mitigated if they also arrest Ahmad ? For a Phd degree holder, you surprisingly do not show any sign of intelligence.
ISA is wrong regardless of who is being incarcerated. Express your shock for the THREE imprisonments.
MCA is going down the drain if you guys still live in the cave. The world has changed.
The next General Election may be four years away, the BN can be sure I won't be voting for them! Wake up!
Why then act within the restrictions and constrictions from the BN side of the fence?
How much can you hope to achieve?
The Rakyat is well aware that any request not beneficial to the 'master' gets ignored, and had found better avenues to voice up their grievances.
Every true Rakyat knows your protests will come to naught and actions cannot be taken from there.
Just CROSSOVER if proactive solutions befitting an intelectual is in mind!
Dear YB,
Been a fence-sitter 20 years of my voting life.
The thing about me and my fellow fence sitters are we not only can observe both sides of the fence, we also see clearer and further.
Take a guess which side of the fence we finally decided to climb down from the fence to.
Let the Mati Cina Apeks prove that they are REALLY and TRULY shocked by the oppressive and obnoxious and unlawful ISA arrests by LEAVING the BN now!
Let the MCA cease to be a harlot to UMNO!
sing
YB,Don't lose the respect of the rakyat,the government is doing something totally wrong and you stand without voicing for the rakyat.If you don't have the guts then stay out of politics and don't say you represent the rakyat.You don't....got it.
Talking and verbal protest is useless and just sandiwara to pretend that you disagree. You bunch of useless running dogs should just resign/move over to the PKR or forever be condemned.
Action speak louder than words. Where it that action when it is most needed from MCA? Mar 8, 2008 is to let BN govern with a reduce majority, but you fellas are not doing the work you are elected to do. Looks like the rakyat needs to finish off BN for good ASAP. With the current situation, I would prefer the PR to take over the government rather that waiting for the next GE.
Jumping party might not be truly dcemocratic, I thought so too.. but looking at events unfolding, I felt DSAI is definitely right.
We cannot hold on taking in all the opressive, contrictive acts of the current regime.
What with innocents being detained and criminals being on the loose while waiting to be prosecuted.
Any wonder crime is at the rise..and every house have bolted gates?
Look at the current crime rate, economic situation, national cohesiveness etc.
I say, act now for our rights.. For freedom, justice, liberty and a Malaysian Malaysia!
SAVE THE BULLSHIT ! ACTION SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS !
As long as MCA and Gerakan are part of BN, you are party to UMNO's actions.
And if UMNO leaders manages to incite violence then the blood is on your hands. UMNO has done it before and will do it again and so I spit on any Chinese that is a member of these party, you are traitors to your community.
Please stop accusing UMNO and complaining.
UMNO does not treat MCA as equals so accusations and complains will only anger a bully. Your stupid verbal assaults on UMNO will only be met with a violent response.
The only solution is to walk away. And you should have done that 40 years ago.
Jumping party might not be very democratic.. but the unfolding of current events suggest that this is a neccessity towards the right direction.
What with innocents being detained and criminals running loose waiting to tried..
Is it any wonder that crime rate is on the rise?
Lets look at uprighting our rights..
Lets look at freedom, justice and liberty for all!
DEMOCRACY!!
The rakyat sentiment is so hot and serious that everyone wants change, change of government because of their actions which we as Malaysians think that they hv gone too far. If BN does not change its leaders, BN will not survive in the next election, even before next election, BN will fall.
just cross over and act..... No more words pls. Show u hv a heart and soul.
Let's see ... the UMNO leaders felt that what AI said was undesirable .. that's why he was suspended. Now the reporter who reported what AI said got arrested under the ISA. Hmmm... very logical thinking on the part of the Home Ministry.
And what, may I ask, is the MCA's stand on this. Why hasn't the President come out with an official statement? Just continue to be bullied and remain silent- that's the way to go MCA!
Teresa and RPK must be given fair trial. Please exert pressure. Justice for malaysians, regardless of race and political ideology.
Stop all the compromising words! Cut your ties with BN/UMNO immediately! No more negotiations! It is completely MORAL 2 link hands with PR, the preferred coalition of the Rakyat! No need to waste any more time to think further! The ISA slammed on decent truth bearers while the racist scoundrels get off scotfree is plain and reason enough to abandon ship! Jump over into the lifeboats offered by PR NOW!!! Not a second to lose!BN/UMNO titanic is tilting steadily...MCA will sink and drown with the BN/UMNO titanic unless you listen to the voice of the Rakyat. You owe UMNO NOTHING! You owe the caring Rakyat everything for they care for your welfare and survival, without which you will become extinct...JUMP OVER NOW TO PAKATAN RAKYAT! THAT IS MUCH MORE NOBLE AND MORAL THAN TO SINK AND STINK WITH UMNO/BN! HEED OUR GOOD ADVICE AND LIVE TO SERVE THE RAKYAT AND YOUR DESCENDANTS!
Umno should step down as BN leader and nuture its own wounds. It is not in the position to lead BN as it is occupied with many internal problems which bogs its own vision and its ability to lead.
I am bored of listening to Umno's failures.
umno is a moralistic police tat monitors its bn partners for any signs of negativity. however umno closes its own eyes on the abuses of its own members.
Frankly, BN, is the first gear of the country engine.
After pushing this country vehicle to move momentumly, it is time to change to 2nd or 3rd or even 4th gear(PR) now to run smoother and faster.
For if still remain at 1st gear, the whole country gear machanism will be damaged !!
the vehicle is close to being damaged. its not the gear that is important, its the attitude of the driver. change the driver and our country will move forward, collectively.
Ini adalah amat jelas sekali perlaksanaan dwi-piawai (Double Standard) oleh BN.
Adakah Ahmad Ismail berhak bercakap apa saja oleh sebab beliau ahli UMNO?
Kenapa tiada tindakan keatas Khir Toyo yang megeluarkan kenyataan yang tidak berasas?
Adakah ini merupakan satu lagi "Keistimewaan" kepada ahli UMNO?
Semua rakyat Malaysia tanpa mengira bangsa dan latar belakang harus bangkit membantah sekeras-kerasnya kenyataan Ahmad Ismail, Khir Toyo & pemimpin UMNO yang tidak tegas.
Rakyat menyeru supaya bebaskan tahanan ISA ataupun penjarakan Ahmad Ismail, Khir Toyo sama sekali.
YB,
The sooner you jump ship the better your political survival.
Enough is enough!
My heart breaks to see innocent loving Malaysians put in jail and aggorant,corrupt,racist politicians walks away free.
YB,
If reporter Tan now then who is next?
Please stop fighting!!!
Unstable politic is making Malaysia never near to developed country.
Worldwide in turmoil yet we still stuck in childish politic game.
How pathetic.
It is obvious from the recent ISA arrests that the UMNO party is desperate to induce fear in the non Malay community. The reported who reported on Ahmad Ismail gets arrested whilst the actual culprit who started it all, namely Datuk Ahmad himself gets off lightly with a pat on his hand. Makes one suspect that this guy must have been paid to cause trouble.
Likewise, when Teresa was falsely accused by Khir Toyo, she gets arrested whilst nothing is done against the culprit, Khir Toyo who started it and attempted to stir the sentiments of the Malays against the Chinese.
The government should throw both of these culprit, Ahmad Ismail and Khir Toyo into jail and charge them with ISA.
They probably should also include our Home Minister as well for making stupid and rediculous accusations.
double standard yg umno ada biaso lah. dah lamo umno practise standard tu. tapi apo yg parti bn lain buat? tak akan diam je.
jiko diaorg tak puas hati, pakso la umno ubah standard tu.
Khir Toyo is a problematic politician who talks without thinking. He seems to eagerly bring about controversial issues and at the same time denies doing it.
I do not think he is matured enough to play politics. He should just resign and open up a bakery where he can shout all day to his staff, if he wants.
