Raja Petra To be Charged For Sedition Tomorrow

May 5, 2008 – 11:31 pm

I read on Blig Blogging that Raja Petra, or lovingly known by his millions of loyal readers as RPK will be charged in the Magistrates Court tomorrow for sedition.

This is a totally serious charge and with the Malaysian judiciary system in tatters, I wonder what the outcome will be. Being charged for sedition, perhaps, is better compared to getting ISA-ed…. there is NO trial at all for ISA detainees.

Aiya… that’s why, when you are a blogger, especially a political blogger, you can’t write anything that could implicate yourself. Even for ordinary low key bloggers like myself, we get strange visits from people from the Government and police. They DO prowl the cyberspace, you know?
This looks like a major set back for the fight for media freedom and freedom of thought and expression in Malaysia.
