Now that he has got one big task done by announcing his full cabinet lined up, I hope he will release the Hindraf-5 soon. Afterall, didn't he say that he has ears of all Malaysians? By the way, when I heard over the radio on his announcement on the cabinet, did you notice that our PM seems to be out of breath? It was just 27 ministerial names + 27 or so deputy ministers' name. Someone should recommend him brands' essence of chicken or ginseng chicken soup... and also some candle ear wax.. you know, to clear the ear tunnel...
Anyway, back to the topic. Honestly, I think the Hindraf-5 were made out as scapegoats. If there are serious and tangible links to terrorism, I'm sure there's will be more than one country screaming out for their heads. There's even no complimentary hurrahs-pat-on-the-back from the Big Brother. We all know, they're keep 'in there' because of political reasons. It's time someone should own up. Hopefully, the new minister in Syed Hamid Albar will have good advisers to advise him and have courage to speak up. Otherwise, he'll be just another lame duck like the predecessor. I do really feel for the Hindraf-5. Away from your family, especially tough on the kids.
Anyway, this is what Syed Hamid Albar has to say, "I have to learn fast to regain public confidence in security related matters. Judging from the election results, Malaysians expect some things to be done."
Someone should start some online petition for their release now.
A good article by Malik Imtiaz Sarwar on Hindraf-5.
