From Lim Kit Siang's blog,

Lingam tape - letter to PM to suspend Ahmad Fairuz as Chief Justice and to establish judicial tribunal

This is one of the reasons, I don't buy or read Malaysian papers. There is of course a news blackout on this.

Most young people I know shrug at this as if nothing can be done, however there is something all of us can do, and that's to register as a voter now.  It's not difficult, SPR is even in shopping malls, all you need is to give your IC card and fill in a simple form to register.

There is enough of us in the younger voting generation, that can say enough is enough, and it's time to now shape Malaysia for us and not simply accept the corrupt racist system that is in place.

Remember, the ruling government is elected by us. They serve us, not the other way around. In a democracy, it means collectively your votes will have the power to change things. So let's not leave it almost a third of the way, like in 1999 and instead vote any party except BN. Not registering and not voting in the next elections means that you accept and condone the current corrupt system.

Upset about toll hikes?
Upset with corruption?
Upset with high prices for cars?
Upset that you can't get into local university because you're the wrong race?
Upset that minister allows foreign corporations to dictate our IT standards?

Register now, and be ready to do something when the next elections come up.
