Holy Brawling

Brawling in the holiest place?

That is what happens when we place significance into insignificant places. Emphasising on the relics and forms. When the Spirit has left, what is left is bricks and stones. Dead lifeless acts remain.

And we will fight over 'our' tradition and square foot of earth.

Conflict

One say no, one say yes!

Both from the same government.

Regarding the high court verdict on releasing RPK, the govt is not speaking with one voice whether they will challenge it or not!

KAJANG, Nov 7 - The Home Ministry will not dispute the decision of the court to release blogger Raja Petra Raja Kamarudin from detention under the Internal Security Act (ISA), said its minister, Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar.
"That is the decision of the court. So, if he is released, it's the right of the court," he told reporters after launching the Kajang Prison Mosque, Hulu Langat, here today.- Bernama

(The Star) - The Government may appeal against the Shah Alam High Court’s decision to release Malaysia Today editor Raja Petra Raja Kamarudin from the Internal Security Act (ISA) detention.
Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Abd Aziz said the High Court’s decision ought to be respected.
“But I think the Government will appeal,” he said yesterday.

So what is the govt saying?

Raja's Free!
