Democracy-the Missing Piece in the Search for Common Ground
PRESS STATEMENT
12 January 2009
The recent U.N. Resolution called for an immediate ceasefire of the Gaza-Palestine conflict and unimpeded provision and distribution of aid to Gaza, as well as measures to halt arms smuggling and open the borders. Yet, the indiscriminate killing of civilians in Gaza-Palestine continue to escalate at an unprecedented rate, raising alarm of a greater regional conflict and threat to world peace.
The cruelty inflicted by the Zionists of Israel on civilians must be stopped immediately. However, ending the violence seems a near-impossible task when a compromise can hardly be reached by the warring parties. This is a conflict that bears a historical baggage which dates back centuries and although it is a land and territorial dispute, what matters are issues which remain to be a complex hybrid of religion and human rights. To say that it must be resolved “with care” is an understatement.
In response, almost all nations in the world have taken the position that this war must end and the conflict resolved. In mounting pressure, we have witnessed a surge of protest, anti-war vigils, press reports in the electronic and print media and even trade boycotts of U.S. and Israel products globally, particularly in the Muslim world. Malaysians have admirably answered the call for help by sending our own medical relief team and the public has been tremendously generous in the effort to despatch aid.

Breaking the Rule of Whose Law? (the Malaysian Insider)
By Yusmadi Yusoff
AUG 7, 2008 We have been incessantly reminded by government leaders that we should abide by the law. That, in order for justice to prevail, we should uphold the rule of law. The Prime Minister again reminded us that we should be fair and that the law must allow a complainant to seek legitimate redress.
The Prime Minister cautioned the public to “remember” that there is a valid complaint by Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan against Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to be entertained. That it was, after all, done in accordance with the dictates of the law.
That, again, any public outcry against the charges framed against Anwar is unnecessary and would jeopardise peace and order in society. As we moved into another series of the Anwar Ibrahim trials, reminiscent of the 1998 saga, we have again been given legal tutelage by government ministers.

KUALA LUMPUR: The government is considering reviewing the Attorney-General’s (AG) powers as provided by the Federal Constitution to establish checks and balances to the prosecution process, Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Zaid Ibrahim said.
Winding up the debate on the motion of thanks on the royal address in the Dewan Rakyat yesterday, Zaid said the government had instructed him on May 2 this year to discuss and study the matter with the AG Chambers.
The study would look at the ability of bodies such as the Anti-Corruption Agency, AG Chambers and Securities Commission in making prosecution decisions, he added.
