JUST DO IT! THAT IS IF YOU REALLY CARE!
POSTED 9:48AM SUNDAY 21SEPT.2008
AT 10:30AM AT THE CHINESE ASSEMBLY HALL,
18 SUPPORTERS WILL SHAVE BALD
TO SHOW SUPPORT FOR RPK.
WE JUST NEED YOU TO SIGN THE PETITION, NOTHING MORE.
THIS PETITION DOES NOT REQUIRE YOU TO GIVE YOUR IC NUMBER.
WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
THIS APPEAL IS ONLY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SIGNED THE PETITION.


http://www.petitiononline.com/isa1234/petition.html

THERE HAS BEEN SOME DISSENTING VOICES ON THE PETITION. I SUGGEST YOU READ HARIS (HERE).

THE SPIRIT OF THE PETITION IS TO FREE THOSE IN DETENTION.
TAKE IT NO OTHER WAY.
ZAID RESIGNED FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN THE INJUSTICE OF THE ISA.
I CANNOT SAY MORE TO CONVINCE YOU TO PUT YOUR NAME TO THE PETITION.
LET'S NOT READ TOO MANY THINGS INTO THIS DIRECT SPIRIT OF THIS PETITION.
LET'S CLOSE RANKS AND WORK TOWARDS A NEW MALAYSIA.

i noticed that there are prominent bloggers like susan loone who have posted entries that DISCOURAGE people from signing the petition because of the wording. perhaps u can impress upon them the urgency of the situation. i tried. got "reprimanded" and got sarcastic response from these people.

Sir,

There is a problem that may have escaped many: One cannot 'register' their vote on MT unless they have the password / registered with the site.

So, may I suggest that it be made easy for visitors - make it more like what is possible on your site.

Was not aware. Just signed, the pleasure was mine.
Will try to get a few more Malaysians to sign living down here.
It is a pity, the old mindset remains...either indifferent or chicken heart, expecting others to do the dirty work.

Yes Zorro,

I totally agree with you. We should not miss the woods for the trees.

We should still have the ISA to put Khir Toyo behind bars; but not at Kamunting, instead we should put him together with the gorillas, orangutans and chimpanzees at Zoo Negara. He may come out reformed.

I have already signed and thought the petition was already closed. Typical Malaysians. Talk a lot but when told to reveal identify like IC, they hide and become silent. Come on everyone, sign the petition to save RPK and other ISA detainees. Save the people who fight for you. Don't be a coward.

Just saw this petition on mt. Didn't realised there was a petition, else would have signed it earlier.

However, I see that the petition only require name and email address. Wouldn't that meant that it is open for abuse?

Bernard, I'm one who was going to sign the petition but what stopped me is that the petition not only demands the release of raja petra and teresa. But of all ISA detainees!

I know ISA is unjust, but what scares me is I don't know the profile of the tens of ISA detainees currently being held.

It is not wise to release a potential real terror to the country as well! I would gladly sign it if:
1) the petition is reworded to only fight for raja petra's freedom - or
2) the petition is reworded to demand the abolishment of ISA and a sane review of all cases under ISA. The real terrors must still be kept behind bars!

Uncle B - I must admit that I am one of the late-signers, mistakenly thinking that it was another petition (along the same lines) that I'd already signed.

In any case, mistake rectified... and as an atonement, I've posted my own appeal.

To those concerned about the petition calling for the release of ALL ISA detainees, consider this:
There are sufficient laws in Malaysia under which the detainees could have been charged. Why weren't they?

I don't have an answer either, but my guess is that there is no real evidence against them, only suspicion. If there were evidence, why not charge them in a court of law?

The basic tenet of any legal system is the presumption of innocence. Until proven otherwise.

Suspicion alone just don't cut it...
