bloggers... wat would you do?!?... how would you feel?!?...

i certainly smell the general election is coming so very near!... lately there are major 'operation' on clamping down bloggers who, some spread truth which can't be found in the daily tabloids.. think the govt is going all out to clamp those responsible bloggers down and to 'contain' them, throw in the scare tactics/factors too...

looking at nat tan's case... still trying to understand how his family feel and taking it... would say those same exact conditions reflects pretty much on all bloggers family.. if their children, father, mother, relatives, fren, etc... is caught by the authorities for watever stupid reason/s...

many 'political' bloggers i personally know are responsible bloggers... to me the irresponsible ones are those who never show up for any events, etc... but yet, those responsible ones are caught for stupid reason/s... take nat's case for example... he got caught BECAUSE someone commented on a particular posting on johari which nat posted in december 2006 and that someone basically put a link in that comment which 'link' to another 'fake' website TWO LONG MONTHS in february 2007 after nat posted it in december 2006!... also, he got caught a few days/weeks or so AFTER johari being cleared of fm all charges!... think conspiracy, think set-up, think x-files and think of everything which is possible since everything is possible in malaysia!...

also, nat is charged under the official secret acts (osa)!.. if johari say all this are lies, etc.. then why under osa?!?... this means, there are truth in his posting and/or the comments he received for that particular post which deemed to be a so-called official secret?!?... did they just corner themselves?!?...

anyway.. got carried away... back to the topic...

wat would you do if you are caught for wat you believe is the truth?!?...

how would you feel if you are caught for wat you believe is the truth?!?...

i personally believe this kinda arrest, detention, etc.. only makes a person stronger in every aspect and struggle even more for wat he believes in, in the future!...


p/s ; if nat's arrest is a political motivated case and if they think they can 'contain' him so that he don't get any further political 'milage'... then, i dare say the authorities are so very wrong!...

p/s ; this kinda cases needs international coverage... i sincerely hope you can do you part by spreading it to yr family, frens, etc.. in overseas... for example, al-jazeera did an excellent job by highlighting the 'un-lawful' detention in the religious camp by the religious authorities... this kinda coverage will make them shiver and to think many times before they do the same thing again...
