Teresa now being released
At 12.56 pm, at lunch in Ipoh, my mobile phone rang. I saw the caller was “Teresa” and wondered who was using her phone.
But it was her on the line and wondered how she wangled the use of her phone while in detention.
But no, she did no such improper thing. She told me that she was being released.
Bravo. The irresistible pressures against her unjust and undemocratic detention had succeeded.
While in celebratory and jubilant mood, we must also be mindful that the recent spate of ISA arrests demonstrate that this iniquitous law must go.
Sin Chew reporter Tan Hoon Cheng’s 18-hour ISA detention and Teresa’s 6-day detention are testimony.
Now, only RPK is still in detention from the recent spate of ISA arrests. He should be released immediately too.
The Hindraf Five and all other ISA detainees should also be given back their personal liberties and released from Kamunting Detention Centre.
Leaving Ipoh now for Teresa’s media conference at DAP PJ Hqrs at 3.30 pm.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 24.47
Teresa I support You!!!
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 27.41
Syabas ! But the abuse of ISA by the government still have to be condemned. The anger of the RAKYAT towards the government for abusing ISA on innocent people subside.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 28.30
Release all ISA detainees now!
Abolish ISA now!
NOW!
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 29.28
Typo error. The anger of the RAKYAT towards the government for abusing ISA on innocent people has still not subside.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 30.11
Well Kit Siang, for all what you have done since her detention and for your tremendous display of genuine support for Theresa, I salute you.
With the rest of the Malaysians and most notably Zaid, who deplore what happen to Theresa, let us not forget the paramount need to repeal this obnoxious piece of legislation.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 30.58
If it is true, then PDRM and Syed Hamid has a BIG HUGE APOLOGY to make to ALL MALAYSIANS and in particular, St. Teresa!
Also, when is the Indonesian ex-Chief Minister, Khir Toyo going in under ISA? Will his counterparts in Utusan Malaysia join him?
Why talk about the RACE RELATIONS ACT, if nobody is willing to ACT!?
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 32.06
I suggest Teresa Kok claim compensation for her unlawful detention from the government.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 35.58
Folks, you all got it wrong. It was all for Teresa’s protection. The government, with its efficient investigative organs, have neutralised all those who sought to harm Teresa, and now she can be freed to live in peace.
Give some credit to the BN administration. They managed to neutralise Teresa’s enemies in 6 days.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 38.02
satu lagi projek yang dimenangi oleh RAKYAT Malaysia…
since Teresa & Tan cells are empty now, it’s good to enroll Toyol & Ahmad Said as govt. need to fully utilize these cells…
BTW, when are we (RAKYAT) expect DSAI to announce Kerajaan Pakatan RAKYAT…
Thank you to all Malaysian for your effort to bring Teresa out from the UMNO-BN hell cell…
I wish to see RPK & Hindraf-5 to be out too…
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 38.27
guess that aab and the botak really flip flop after all. why can’t they be stern to their actions …..
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 38.56
Bravo, I support Teresa to take up legal actions to sue and claim from respective parties for being caused to her unlawful detention by the government.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 39.02
Bravo! Now for the others!
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 40.00
RACE RELATIONS ACT is only for the rakyat who oppose the government and also for the opposition parties leaders. UMNOputras are above the law and they also enjoyed impunity in this UMNO ruled country. Ahmad Ismail is a fine example.

YB Kit,
Drive carefully…
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 45.23
What a joke of ISA. The regime could not sustain the pressure from the public and international community.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 46.11
More to the point: The Deputy IGP and Home Minister who ordered her arrest - arrest them instead.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 46.41
Terrific, that’s great news but we’ve also to get RPK and Hindraf out as well.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 46.57
YB
As Singaporean, I feel the injustice inflicted on her under the guise of ISA and I now take comfort that she is finally released. Cheers.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 51.44
Welcome back Teresa Kok!!!!
This will make you much more stronger!!!!
The whole rakyat is with you.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 52.18
Wah! It finally paid off after all that has been done. Congratulation to you and the rest of the team. May this be the first of all cause worth fighting for…..
Our mental is a celebration. Not easy as we all are incarcerated in our own way of thinking the existing rule of the jungle
Ini malam sudah boleh celebrate minum 2 Or Kau. Guinness stout is good for you.
God bless
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 52.56
the deputy igp and botak should resign for the error they have commited. how could they be flipflop like this, waste time, money and effort (and petrol money too fetching them). in japan they’d have commited sepukku …
resign! resign! resign!
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 53.08
Teresa, you are a true Malaysian daughter. We love you. Continue to fight for the release of all ISA detainees. Fight to abolsih ISA.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 53.10
At long last, thanks God, freedom for Teresa. What a relief!
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 55.23
Yippee! Yippee! Teresa Kok is back with us again!
I am too happy to believe it. Look forward to see her speak in parliament.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 55.58
Teresa… when I read about how you had to stay in an 8′ by 8′ cell, I shuddered. I can’t imagine how I would take being forcefully separated from my family. I would die thinking of my kids missing me and not being able to see me.
My heart is filled with joy for you.
The ISA must be stopped.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 56.00
tdm is much better, when he said “off to isa”, that means you really off to kamunting, no flip flop decision like this. that aab is so unfit. the whole cabinet must be out - the country now is in serious time (oil price naik, rice naik, lehman tutup) we don need flip flop ministers who can’t even hold firm to their decision. today they made this decision, tomorrow they rescind it, this is very very terrible…..
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 56.24
YB Kit Siang,
This in indeed fantaaaaaaaaaaaaaaastic news. Teresa,you are one hell of a lady!So the efforts by all concerned were not in vain.Dont stop there.We should now concentrate on the release of RPK,the icon of Msian bloggers.Let the BN gomen know that the peace loving people of Bolehland shall not be cowed by repressive laws.
Btw, the empty cells should now be reserved for botox toyol and botak syed.They had it coming.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 56.35
yes yes yes!! helleluiah! Thank God
Teresa Kok released from ISA detention !!!
Good news indeed. Teresa, you’ve beat the ‘devil’
Welcome back.
September 19th, 2008 at 13: 56.41
Teresa, do not withdraw your case against Utusan and Mr Broom.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 00.12
Releasing RPK would be more difficult. RPK has many more enemies compared to Teresa, so the investigations into who is threatening RPK’s safety will have to go on much much longer.
My bisnes partner Kasim Amat is trying very hard to help into the police investigations on those who are known to be RPK’s enemies. That’s why he has no time to write to us.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 01.22
Now, just wait and see what’s going to happen to her case with her accuser. God Would not be mock!! Justice.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 01.38

ABOLISH THE ISA!

September 19th, 2008 at 14: 05.53
Yb Lim,
While glad Theresa Kok is released from ISA, we must not forget why she was arrested in the first place - the lies perpetuate by Khir Toyo(L) and Utusan.
MB Kok,
Go ahead and sue Khir Toyo(L) and Utusan for every ill-gotten ringgit they have.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 06.30
Hurray for Teresa’s release! All the pressure has worked.
What has the regime achieved from the ISA detention of Tan and Teresa? Domestic and international condemnation. Anger and disgust of the rakyat. A Minister has resigned. Their allies MCA and Gerakan have been weakened, if not castrated. Political instability, investors flight and stock market down.
What have they gained? A big fat zero!
Lost a lot. Gained nothing. Is this how they run the govt?
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 07.43
YB,
ISA must go, but maybe not just yet. Let the rakyat put a few of the bn guys behind bars under ISA for a few years so that we will have members from both sides in favour of abolishing such laws.
Otherwise, it could be abused again.
The detention of RPK and Hindraf5 as well as many others are a travesty of justice. Who is going to pay for this?
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 08.40
happy for her. may god bless you teresa…….let your service for rakyat will be just like mother theresa………
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 10.11
Thank God for that but this should never happen in the first place.
Now one more to go. May all of us pray Raja Petra will be release immediately.
Please remember that at far at the law is still there we have lot of work to done. We all should work together to get this law abolish once and for all. We are all peace loving and I believe all human being are peace loving and we should respect each other and love each other no matter what is the differences in opinion are.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 12.23
why make more enemies uncle lim????? i think u bark and bite the wrong tree this time by demanding an apolgy from mca!!! from what i understand, mca did raise for release unlike lpd or pbs of sabah or the non-component of sarawak!!!
i think lim should have say ‘BIG THANK YOU’ to all who had voiced for their release. as you know, in umno meeting, nobody especially from the non-component parties ARE ALLOWED to speak/voice/comment especially under the tyrant’s rule. so i don’t blame mca at all!!! on the contrary, i find it amusing and with delight that mca ,gerakan and zaid ibrahim did lent their voice to especially kok the opposition party!!
thus i think dap shouldn’t be ‘tai ko’ for the chinese or any races but be modest and kind especially if want to woo the trust and help from the opponents. know thy enemies weakness and favors to win the battle!!! understand???
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 12.50
Let justice prevail!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 13.19
In the good book, (Esther), the accuser was hanged. He was hanged upon the pillar and with the ropes he prepared for the righteous. May this be true to the evils of this land. Remember the words of her priest.
And the accusers of RPK will also meet with the same fate. When a gov’t turns against its own people, it marks the end of the gov’t.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 14.55
YB Teresa should so the pants off Toyol and make sure he becomes a bankrupt and cannot re-enter politics.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 14.59
Welcome home Teresa!
May you be Well and Happy.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 15.07
Dear YB Kit,
Please ensure that “Botak Clown” Hamid is sued till his pants drop, RM 100Million for illegal detention and male fide arrest.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 15.10
…should sue….
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 15.48
Welcome Back Theresa, you were missed.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 16.26
Getting RPK’s release will be more difficult than Teresa. The reason is not that he has more enemies but he has less public sympathy. He’s a man for a start (women victims always gets more sympathy). But essentially, he went and twist the Lion’s tail knowing what he was doing. He was warned but twisted it some more. In contrast, Teresa did nothing to invite harsh measure.
I’m not saying RPK deserves it. Nobody deserves ISA no matter what he has done. But we should not delude ourselves that we live in a real democracy where peaceful dissent is tolerated. If we are brave enough to do it, we should be brave enough to take the consequences.
I knew that Teresa would be released soon as the political cost of holding her is just too high. As for RPK we should keep on the pressure. As I see it, the earliest hope for his release may be the expiration of the 60 days detention period, and that is only a hope.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 17.47
YB LKS,
“Bravo. The irresistible pressures for her unjust and undemocratic detention had succeeded”
==================================================
Bravo! YB, you are a Hero again here that in your vehement and persistent calling and propaganda for her wrongful and unjust arrest have resulted in her early release. This is another one fine example of your dynamic leadership for our Malaysian Democracy and Freedom.
Three cheers to all,
and Good blessed.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 18.34
Released after 6 days!!! That means 5 days, 23 hours and 59 minutes too late. They should not have wasted more than a minute to dismiss the need to arrest and detain teresa. It was that obvious.
Now that she is again back in contact with fresh air and I say: “Have some rest and decent home food. Welcome back. You know who is behind you all these while.”
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 20.37
Thank you Syed Hamid and BN government for “protecting” her for one week.
Now that she’s free, is her safety “at risk”?
Now go after Toyo, Utusan and that no-gooder MCA fellow, give it to them kow-kow.
Welcome out, Teresa. God bless.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 22.07
Theresa’s harbeus corpus hearing is to be held on 23-Sep-2008 (next tuesday) and they release her before that.
They know they have no legal grounds to hold her and the court would have have ruled in Theresa’s favour anyway.
In order for the Home Minister not to look too stupid, they better release her.
However, no matter what the Botak Clown Minister do or say, he will infamously look stupid in the eyes on Malaysian Public for perpetuity.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 23.50
Badawi & Syed Hamid,
Not good enough! Release RPK, Hindraf 5 and ALL ISA detainees now!
Suara rakyat, suara keramat
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 28.12
When we act, God manifest. Teresa, the whole world is proud of you. You have the courage to do the right things. Shame on those who did unjustice on you.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 29.19
Welcome back our hero!
You are our nation hero now
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 29.51
Congratulations to LKS. You are God-sent saviour to Malaysia!
No less appreciation goes to PR as well.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 31.39
I really admire Teresa Kok’s courage. Hours before she was arrested, she was informed by people that the police would detain her under ISA. Yet, she did not go into hiding and said she had nothing to fear since she had done no wrong.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 31.49
I am so happy now. God Bless Teresa Kok and this country!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 32.15
now… sue the ass off those that make false report…
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 34.40
What a feeling after a week of gloom !
Welcome home Teresa, welcome home.
Now we have to get RPK and the rest out asap !!!!
Heeehawww……..
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 39.01
Hallelujah! Glory be to God our rock & our fortress!
All the more we NOW demand immediate release of all the other detainees & abolish this STUPID ISA, if they have done any wrong then just take them to court.
My heart aches to see our Malay friends like YM Raja Petra and our Indian Hindraf friends still suffering unjustly under a barbaric BN government.
If these Hindraf leaders have any link with terrosit groups as WRONGFULLY accused by Syed Hamid, do you think it can still be so calm & peaceful for Malaysia for almost a year after their leaders’ ISA arrest?????????? Syed Hamid, please use some common sense, you don’t need super police intelligence & observation.
MCA & Gerakan, you have proven again & again that you are nothing but a group of opportunists going after your own personal wealth rather than the welfare of the rakyat. Big shame on you!
For now its BRAVO to YB Teresa KOK!!! Praise God!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 40.56
Godfather Says “Give some credit to the BN administration. They managed to neutralise Teresa’s enemies in 6 days.”
Oh then Teresa should thank the government, maybe she should also expect to receive a bill for protection services and room & board charges.

You are my hero, Kit & Teresa.
God bless you all the way.

I am fired up! Congratulation to Pakatan!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 44.14

glad you are safe and could return to group now

AAB had to wait for the UMNO MT meeting to be over before he even dared to agree to doing the right thing. AAB has no political courage at all, and he might as well leave before 9 October 2008 when UMNO Divisional meetings begin.
It was reported that at the UMNO MT meeting yesterday five MT members, including Muhyiddin and Rafidah Aziz urged AAB to reconsider himself, meaning that he should step down early, before 2010; some suggested before 9 October 2008. It was only after Najib intervened to say that he would have detailed discussion with AAB that the urging process stopped. It is most amusing that the direct beneficiary is Najib who, once taking over the position, would be the new emperor. Why did others show their exceptional keen interest to have Najib ascend the throne, and offended AAB for no direct benefit in return? It is not as though Najib would appoint Rafidah to the Cabinet, since she too has stated her own transition plan, and might have to follow the out-going presidents lead for an earlier exit.
Muhyiddin certainly hoped that Najib might reward him with the position of deputy, if the latter was willing to forgo the transfer of the position of the deputy to within his family. Muhyiddin is betting that he would be the deputy come December, either to Ku Li, or to Najib. He is more certain of the position if Ku Li ascends the throne, rather than Najib who had an obligation that charity begins within the extended family. That could be the reason why Muhyiddin had arranged for TDM to apply for entry into UMNO.
TDM had never said that he had changed his mind in conditioning his reentry to AAB’s removal as President. In showing his preference to TDM, Muhyiddin implies that AAB should go. The urging that AAB leave soon has to be timed so that TDM is seen not to retract his statement, so that he can hold his head high as in-coming Chairman of a presidential council for UMNO. That might allow Ku Li a chance of getting enough nomination to stand. However if Anwar was able to show that he had the support of the majority of the House, and that AAB made a slip in dissolving the parliament, then the next general election would be held before December party election. Under the circumstance, would a outgoing president or the sitting deputy president get to decide the next BN election? It is unlikely, so it would be a collective leadership under Chairman TDM. If TDM wins, now that ISA machinery is running smooth with the recent practices, he can be the next PM. He will then appoint his successor. Who do you think he will be Najib, Ku Li, Khairy, Muhyiddin or Mukriz Mahathir?
When that comes through AAB will have to weep in silence. He would regret for making the greatest mistake in life, forever.
Anwar has not caused AAB his position as PM. They are the members of his own party starting with all the heroes competing to be saviour of the race and religion, and who wantonly showed that they wanted to bully the other communities, just to act sombong. There are others who even before the March election has created the foundation for UMNO to defect from UMNO, urging them to vote for the persons, rather than the party they were able to call for AAB’s removal. The UMNO policy at government malfeasance would have the same outcome no matter who sits as head of the party.
Anwar has not contemptuously asked AAB you to leave the position, like the members of MT. He sent AAB a letter asking for his agreement to meet. Anwar now follows up asking for him to convene parliament. In open meeting AAB might not have the choice to resign so that the government could change hand smoothly. So, while AAB still has time, until the UMNO Divisional meeting bringing him news that he was not nominated as president, he can still demonstrate that he is a gentleman doing the honorable act as a statesman to leave the position when he ought to step down. He should meet Anwar.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 49.45
Malaysians of Malay origin PAS & PKR even UMNO Zaid Ibrahim have come forth and fought hard for the release of a Malaysian of Chinese origin Teresa Kok.
Now we the Malaysians of Chinese origin should do no less to give the loudest support to break the teeth of ISA and press for the freedom of all other ISA detainees.
Together we can do it!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 49.50
Great! Excellent!
Glad to have MP Teresa Kok back!
Question:
- will anyone be the next target, selected to be innocent?
- when will the latest act be approve, Religion Relationship Act?
- why must so plenty of complicate and ‘unwelcome’ acts in M’sia? isn’t it benefit to rakyat, or just politic interest (needs)?
Stability, warmest, harmony, I want that!
TQ.
Warmest regards.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 51.22
Now Teresa is released. The matter should no end here. The false accusers, should be brought to book and sue the daylight out of them.
YB. get DAP to lead the charge, no decent human being should be put to this sort of suffering. HM Hamid, should be put on notice that he cannot fool with human’s sufferings just for political motives. War criminals can be put on trial, so can political criminals.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 53.08
“Looks like ISA is an UMNO toy to throw and catch as it likes. Makes the government and the police real stupid.” Mr Smith
A glimpse of that from Zaid Ibrahim’s reason for stepping down and he named the strongest resistent for change. And Zaid said the word “biggot,” maybe directed at her. Remove ISA, UMNO will tumble.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 53.33
This only proves that the ‘rakyat’ still have the power. It also proves that no matter how dominant the ruling government is, it is still answerable to the the ‘rakyat’!
We just passed the first hurdle, slowly but surely. The same ISA should be used to get Syed Hamid and Khir Toyo to face the music.
Syed Hamid is a trained lawyer (having his own law practice) but what a disgrace he is to the legal profession.
We have just won the battle, the war is yet to be won.
Slowly but surely!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 53.46
Hi YB Teresa Kok, after the press conference, go home and get some good rest and good food. The country is at stake now and we the rakyat need you and all RighFul MPs to save her.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 54.48
Simply detained Sing Chew’s reporter for reporting the TRUTH.
Simply relied on unreliable sources for detaining innosence people.
Keep saying “don’t listen to rumours” but looks who is acted on rumours.
With the 8×8 cell being vacant, who should be the NEXT!!!!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 55.20
Teresa, take some good rest and nourish yourself well.
After that, get the lawyers and start suing them for mega-million RM. It’s rightfully yours. Forgiving does not mean no compensations.
GOD BLESS YOU.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 55.41
Is Khir Toyo running for the post of UMNO youth chief ? Well he is doomed!
Legal action must be taken against him IMMEDIATELY!
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 57.12
Malaysia Chicken Association and Gelakan are no difference from UMMO fellows, all bunch of scumbags robbing and raping the nation. Sendiwara here and there as if rakyat are fools.
Come on chickens and jokers, sack yourselves before get sacked in the coming days.
ISA is a last nail to your own coffin, comfirm that you guys no more hope.
… D-End.
September 19th, 2008 at 14: 58.15
Folks, folks, While we celebrate the released of ‘m’sia Mother- Teresa’, we must also give special thanks to our NGO’s Islamic Organisation who have stood by Teresa. Its the Total rakyat at work - ITS RAKYAT’S POWER!!!!! God bless us ALL rakyat!
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 02.44
The government forgotten that going into ISA will earn you more respect from the rakyat, better than any Tan Si, Datuk Sri, whatever tunships thrown at you. Too many datuks on the streets, simply throw a stone also kena few of them.
Things have changed, soon ISA Ali, ISA Tan, ISA Muthi earning more respect than Datuk Sri Ali, Tan Sri Tan, Tun Sri Muthi combined!
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 03.28
Do not stop from here, Release RPK, Hindraf 5 and ALL ISA detainees immediately!!
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 04.24
Salam Sejahtera,
Tahniah atas pembebasan YB Teresa Kok. Bagaimana dengan perjuangan membebaskan RPK dan juga tahanan lain yang merengkok hampir enam tahun. Jikalau mereka dibebaskan maka DAP akan terus menjdi Hero Malaysia bukan hanya untuk Bangsa Cina tetapi untuk Bangsa Malaysia khususnya Bangsa Melayu yang fobia dengan DAP. Teruskan perjuangan membebaskan tahanan yang dikatakan menyokong Jemaah Islamiah dan sebagainya. Jika mereka bersalah bicarakan di mahkamah. Jangan pula nanti DAP kata mereka ini extremis tak perlu dibebaskan. Tetapkan perjuangan, jangan habiskan disini sebaik sahaja YB teresa dibebaskan.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 05.42
Uncle Lim,
I applaud you, RPK and Teresa for the cause of democracy and justice in our country. Many said that yes BN/UMNO is incompetent and corrupt but is DSAI the answer to problems we face in our beloved country?
DSAI can promise many things now in exchange for the support of the rakyat and premiership. Most will say, “Aiya what other choice we have?? It is our only hope lerrr!”.
I say, no worries! DSAI will be surrounded by intelligent, honest and hardworking ppl like LKS, Teresa Kok, Tony Pua etc. to run the country in a proper, fair and legal way upholding the rakyat’s interest.
My support is on you Uncle Lim and Co.!!! Do the Malaysian chinese proud and prove that we are a race that tolerates no nonsense, hardworking, honest and fair to all other races!!!
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 05.52
Rakyat Malaysia vs UMNO-BN
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 06.30
It is clear now the ISA arrests were deliberately made by a ‘powerful body’ within UMNO to make Abdullah look stupid, unpopular and disliked by the people.
That’s how they cornered him at the Supreme Council meeting to bring forward his retirement.
Pity, Teresa, Ms Tan and RPK, became their game.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 06.50
Welocme back Teresa. May be someday you will become the first female Prime Minister of Malaysia. May be race/bigot suprmacists will think that i am day dreaming. But i am not; i am completely sober and awake. A female non muslim becomes the Prime Minister of a muslim majority country - this is what colour/gender blind is all about.

Today’s New Malaysia will record its early victory in this new nation, the power of Rakyat all religion and race have made it possible!! And history will also reflect none of these have anything to do with MCA and Gerakan!! other than ‘window dressing’ advetisment! that’s all they’ve done, busy fighting for their own post.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 10.07
Lets hope RPK is released soon. They get him probably because they want to force him to reveal his sources so they can neutralize them and RPK effectively.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 13.35
BN is shameless and insensitive to continue with the inhuman detention of civil and respectable men and women who would make any country proud.
RPK and Hindraf detainees must be released or Police & Home Minister will continue to be scandalised forever!
Have a heart, be human.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 15.21
Now, it’s RPK ’s turn to be released.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 16.15
Great great news!
Very good sign.
Yes…RPK should be released too.
What’s all these nonsense…arrested… under ISA?
Sick of their reasons..sick of their actions…as if court cases are not good enough.
They are afraid to loose court cases..and proven ..to be a shit government.
But their actions and control of papers…have made them behave like a bunch of mad hound dogs….each fighting for their own selfish positions.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 18.08
We want RPK and Hindraf 5 to be released immediately. AAB better do it now before he is forced down by other umno members. Leave one good deed behind before it is too late. Otherwise forever carry a bad name in history. DO IT NOW!

“It was reported that at the UMNO MT meeting yesterday five MT members, … urged AAB to … step down early, … some suggested before 9 October 2008. It was only after Najib intervened to say that he would have detailed discussion with AAB that the urging process stopped.”
What?? More talking between badawi and najib? What for? Switch things around again? Perhaps they could try a merger like so: Badawi finance min 1, najib finance min 2; and, najib defence min 1, badawi defence min 2; and badawi pm 1, and najib pm 2.
Since both of them are decendants of pendatangs-penumpangs, they can very well share-share. Its all same-same. No win no lose.

With the Race Relations Act having been given the nod, it will serve as a more appropriate tool to deal security issues.
RPK should not be released because his interment was due to the disparaging of religion. Even now, under an article entitled “Spitting in the wind”, RPK has again displayed sheer ignorance of the faith he claims to profess. Approx 70% of the info he attempted to give to the readers was wholly incorrect and without basis. I believe calling RPK a “deviant or a blasphemous Muslim of the worst kind” (as was done by syed) rises from the fact that he is very unlearned and ignorant about Islam and therefore he makes statements that are construed to be blasphemous but perhaps without intent for them to be so.
RPK is an example of an individual who seeks infamy through wrong means. He may hold deviant beliefs and espouse blasphemy, but he is not of the worst kind because he has no real grasp of Islamic history or indeed Islamic creed and principles of jurisprudence. Therefore his excuse of ignorance should hold water. We should note that his statements may be hasty and ill-advised but this excuse pardons him from being a blasphemous Muslim of the “worst kind”.
September 19th, 2008 at 15: 22.43
I think what really happened is that Syed Hamid Albar and his guys just realised that Kamunting has no facilities to handle a woman detained under the ISA!
They may end up actually giving even greater ammunition for demolition of ISA!

He is a Minister of Law but does not understand the Law. UMNO does not need him if he is so afraid of using ISA. One must understand that ISA is by no mean a crime by itself and the key is how you use it. The government has used it at the appropriate time to remove threats and prevent further social disability.”

We now pray that RPK and the Hindraf 5 will also be released.Lets us hope now that UMNO will realise its mistake and put the real culprits under ISA, Toyol this moron from Indonesia, the mamak from Penang who felt he was more malay and the utusan reporter.

The ISA is a draconian instrument that curtails and violates all fundamantal rights. Necessarily its use – if such legislation were not repealed – should be sparing and only under the most convincing circumstances of credible proof that the persons detained are justifiably detained.
The ISA detentions of Reporter Tan Hoon Cheng and MP Theresa Kok show an almost cavalier attitude on the part of those who invoke ISA to the need for credible proof.
Theresa was detained for 6 days, reporter Tan, after detention of 16 hours, in each case, police explained that there was no reason to detain the further. Was there a reason to detain them in the first place? Upon release Tan told reporters ‘I still don’t know why I was detained under ISA,’ raising questions whether the police knew so or merely just took the line to arrest first at the first complaint by certain groups and investigate later rather than investigate first, and if there were credible evidence and reasonble suspicion of threat, arrest thereafter.
This is one of Datuk Zaid’s complaint of how authorities misuse the ISA by putting cart before the horse and using it as an instrument for investigation!
Is this misconceived way of invoking the draconian ISA due to police operating outside oversight of the Home Minister or the Home Minister does not understand how ISA is supposed to work or both ?
One thing is certain is that the ISA is not intended, as Home Minister alleged, to extend protection to the detainees from attacks of those rightly coming under the fit and proper category of within contemplation of the ISA but who nevertheless not detained in travesty of justice.

Good news on the release of Kok.
We should continue the effort and see to it that RPK and the other detainees are also released.
September 19th, 2008 at 16: 47.33
Both detainees - Tan Hoon Cheng and MP Theresa Kok- say (after release) they still don’t know why they were arrested under the ISA in the first place.
Who makes this kind of decision of arbitrary arrest under ISA?
Whoever, he is no respecter of citizen’s civil liberties or human rights and certianly has no understanding of the philosophy and application of preventive detention laws like the ISA.
Judging from the criticisms by Barian National’s own MPs and Ministers of the ISA dragnet, it was not even a decision of the government as a whole.
So who is the Cowboy making such decision? Such abuses will recur if we don’t find out who is the Cowboy directly accountable for making such arbitrary decisions.

September 19th, 2008 at 17: 18.04
Looking at the 3 questions Teresa was questioned about by the police intelligence unit is disgusting to confirm the motive behind her ISA. It is either “politically motivated” for the police to act or it goes to tell the entire world that there is lacking professionalism in the way the intelligence is being carried out. All such questions could have been asked if the police bothers to call Teresa to the police station; but instead resorting to the ISA to detain just to ask these 3 questions is laughing stock of our police professionalism.
It also shows the entire world that there is selective application of the ISA on different people in the Malaysian society. The perpetrators got scott-free while the innocent innocently jailed and confined. Where is the justice? Let PRU 13 be the deciding time to wipe out the oppressing forces.
Teresa, God is with you. We had committed you to God in our prayers and He has worked it out today for your release. God is supreme (not others) in this land and only those who believe in Him shall have salvation.
In our religious faith, we always believe that no one can judge another. Only God can do so. Who is to judge you are a threat to Malaysia? Nobody except God. That’s why God worked it out to ensure you are saved, you are blessed (because the ISA detention gave you a lot publicity and support for moving towards a just society in Malaysia) and empowered to carry out what God wanted all of us to do. God bless you and Malaysia.
Let’s not forget to press on for RPK, the Hindraf 5, and the unrepresented ISA detainees still languishing in Kamunting. They deserve our help as well. RPK, for one, the unsung hero deserves critical attention by all parties to demand his immediate release coming from all walks of life; whether from the Pakatan Rakyat or any sane Malaysian from both the political divide. His struggle is for the people of Malaysia, thus it has to be by the people of Malaysia to help to free him. God will also be with him and He will have a way to work it out for RPK.
Malaysians of any faith must always remember there is judgment day that we will face; for the things that we do here on this earthly world. The wrath each and every one of us faces depends on what “good deeds” were being carried out by us. Beware and be fearful. No even those in power or those who created power unto themselves are exempted from this. So AAB, Syed Hamid, the police and all the others in UMNO………what’s your take?
The ball is in their court!!!
September 19th, 2008 at 17: 22.05
Just like Anwar’s sodomy case, when the medical report by Dr Mohd Osman came out in RPK web site saying that he has not found any sign at all of sodomy, the police did not thank him for exposing the truth, on the contrary, the Doctor was harassed and RPK was put in the self-invent ISA. This plot is ruin. ISA!ISA!, shut everyone’s mouth!

Kok’s release came after Washington Thursday expressed “grave concern” over Malaysia’s use of the ISA as a possible way to stifle dissent.
“The United States firmly believes that national security laws, such as the ISA, must not be used to curtail or inhibit the exercise of universal democratic liberties or the peaceful expression of political views,” State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said.
“The detention of opposition leaders under the ISA would be viewed by the United States and the international community as a fundamental infringement of democratic rights and values,” he added. - YAHOO ASIA NEWS

YB LKS,
Arresting YB Teresa Kok was a joke. You read newspaper and ISA people. Well based on the explanation by the police and the home minister , that’s how the rakyat going to look at it. Sheer revenge!
As for RPK , he did not write anything wrong. He just spoke the truth like George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Lucky they are not Malaysians! The new bred of people are watching and listening.
BN government SPENDS billions to create RACE UNITY via NS Camps.
Later on they do the reverse in Biro Tata Negara. Is not the “btn officer” in charge dangerous to the Malaysian Society. Do we ISA
him or promote him like the Banting culturally moron teacher who happens to be a DISGRACE to the noble teaching profession.
Today generation ponders deeply, unless you are honest and sincere and concise, you cannot lead them.
Wishing RPK for a good health. The brains need his writings to stay awake. The PM may find RPK a great help to be alert!

September 19th, 2008 at 17: 45.46
If ISA is really for the intention of detaining those who said things which is a threat to public order and National security, Ahmad Ismail should be the first person to be detained under ISA for his racial provocative statements that Chinese are pendatang.
He has appeared 3 times in our News headlines. Again and again mentioning the same words in a very-very arrogant style and he was not even detained in ISA or police station for a single day and in fact he was not punished at all.
Although he said he was referring to Chinese’s rights before independence, but this is still a very-very sensitive issue which he was aired thrice in the headlines. This is enough to creat recial disharmony and fightings.
If ISA is not used on him, don’t used it on anyone else.
I did not even hear what Teresa has said to deserve ISA where as I have heard and seen Ahmad’s statement three times in the headlines of all the News channel.
Very clear evidence of dictatorial UMNO.

Hallelujah!! Wonderful news for the weekend. The joy of her freedom can only be tempered by the fact that there are still others who are held without trial unjustly and under dubious reasons or flimsy excuses. I agree with many in the blog that now we should focus on helping RPK be free. I am reminded of the civil rights song in the U.S. “We Shall Overcome.” It looks light the Rakyat given the paradigm shift of what they can do is starting to overcome today.
Does anyone have any data on how many are detained under the ISA currently? What is the longest time of incarceration for those still under ISA detention today?

wellcome back YB Teresa Kok, please keep put on pressure on Bee N to release RPK and all detained under ISA.
September 19th, 2008 at 18: 35.21
S. Hamil Appa, Gay Toyol, whole PDRM, Utusan Me-reka, Columnist Zaini Hassan,
apologise to Teresa & family, and the whole Malaysia immediately !!!!
“Lagipun, tidak masuk akal bagi polis untuk menangkap saya bawah ISA semata-mata berdasarkan artikel tanpa asas yang ditulis oleh seorang penulis kolumn Utusan Malaysia?
“Bagaimana mereka (polis) boleh menganggap artikel itu sebagai kebenaran tanpa menyiasat penulis itu dulu?
“Bagaimana Utusan Malaysia boleh menerbitkannya tanpa mengesahkan fakta-faktanya?” kata Teresa.
What is the police force doing ??????

GODS answered our prayers for Sin Chew reporter Tan Hoon Cheng’s 18-hour ISA detention and Teresa’s 6-day detention are released now. Bravo !! Malaysians united and committed in our many candlelight vigil days for their freedom.
The Question here.? …Pity Raja Petra is still dying under ISA detention and he is hoping the change of new government promised by Anwar will release him . His biggest bet is on his freedom, he bets on Anwar to topple Pak Lah to step down and surrender the govenment to Pakatan Rakyat at anytime. RPK is counting on his last straw and his time to win the race or otherwise he will perish under ISA unlawful detention without human rights. Will he dies under ISA detention ? Malaysians are worried especially the Bloggers will go berserk and go to streets to protest again.
COME ON ! >>> RPK IS OUR BLOGGER KING..IT IS TIME ALL BLOGGERS AND MALAYSIANS UNITED TO PRAY ALLAH FOR HIS IMMEDIATE RELEASE WITHOUT CONDITION ! WE DO HOPE PAKATAN RAKYAT WILL CONTINUE WITH THEIR SIGNATURES CAMPAIGNS AND CANDLELIGHT VIGIL NIGHTS FOR RAJA PETRA RELEASE IMMEDIATELY.
WE, BLOGGERS BEG DAP TO STAGE ANOTHER HUMAN RIGHTS CAUCUS FOR KING BLOGGER, RPK ! WILL YOU DO IT - LKS TO PROOF DAP IS A MULTIRACIAL PARTY DARE TO FIGHT FOR ALL MALAYSIANS REGARDLESS RACE, CREED, RELIGION AND BELIEF.
KEEP YOUR PROMISES AND WORDS !
TRUE MALAYSIAN

Tangkaplah IGP dengan segera kerana telah menyalahgunakan kuasa dengan menangkap Teresa semata-mata kerana adanya sebuah artikel BOHONG+HASUTAN yang diterbitkan oleh utusan, tangkap juga UTUSAN yang tidak bertanggungjawab itu!

Bilakah Zaini Hassan , penulis utusan Melayu yang menuduh Terasa dengan sebarangan itu ditahan dibawah ISA?
September 19th, 2008 at 18: 56.26
Police should probe Toyo and Utusan
September 19th, 2008 at 18: 59.41
First of all, we thank God that you have been released and have not been physically harmed. Secondly we continue to pray for the release of all those who have been unlawfully detained under ISA especially RPK and Hindraf leaders. Thirdly, shame on the police force and judiciary for their blatant failure to uphold the integrity of the law, justice, and peace by acting as mere puppets and slaves of corrupted UMNO polticians. You are the pariah and cowards of Malaysian society for failing to protect the interest of the rakyat, and acting in the selfish interest of certain individuals in the “government”. You can run away from your wrongdoings now, but you can’t run away from God’s justice! Let the international community know of your misdeeds and hopefully the EU and US will impose diplomatic sanctions on UMNO politicians.
September 19th, 2008 at 18: 59.57
Our beloved & sassy Teresa can hold her head high as the hotest heroine in the country! Botox face Khir Toyol must have gone into hiding now.
Another stupid & face losing action by the boleh Gomen. With the enormous peoples’ power the next fight for freedom should go all out for RPK & Hindraf5.
YB Teresa will have her best and sweetest sleep tonight back in her rightful room. End of the nightmare for her elderly parents.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 02.52
The war with UMNO led BN Gorvenment is not over yet.PR and the majority of MALAYSIANS, Had just won two battles.The releasing of TAN and TERESA KOK.
We all must still keep on fighting.Our next battle must be the release of RPK, HINDRAF LEADERS and everyone else detained under ISA.
The war is only won, when the ISA is apolished.
By the way when will the police call up KHIR TOYOL and the reporter of UTUSAN for their statement to be taken.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 04.05
Stop asking the government or the police to probe Utusan, Ahmad Ismail or Tempe. It just won’t happen.
Get every ISA detainee to sue Syed Botak and the government for abuse of process plus dereliction of duty. The courts are probably more inclined now to act as check and balance against abuses of authority.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 05.21
If the recent isa arrests can be treated as a snap shot of current events then habis umno.
1) Tan of sinchew - wrongfully arrested and detained - no sensible reasons for arrest.
2) Teresa of dap - wrongfully arrested and detained - wrong reasons for arrest.
3) Kickdefella - wrongfully arrested and detained - very very dubious reasons - flying national flag upside down? Is that a threat to national security?
4) RPK - wrongfully arrested and detained - even if he had been naugthy with his postings no need to use isa which is meant for terrorist and communists or where national security is an issue. Anyone here felt threatened by his postings? Or you fellas enjoying them (not necessarily believing in them)?
I say umno is panicking like crazy. No umno is shaken and threatened.
ISA umno. I mean umno protection dont they? So isa them. My authority for saying this: Kerajaan Malaysia vs Tan [2008] ISA 1.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 08.32
YB Kit,
Congratulations ! God is good all the time. With each obstacle slowly being removed, the path to Putrajaya is much nearer by the days. Please get all DAP members to continue the stand against ISA without wavering. There are many more in Kamunting that needs to be release irrespective of race, religion or creed. If the govt has sufficient evidence, then bring them to court and face the laws. How can they be denied justice by being mere suspects or worse still ‘fix-up’ by evil people with wicked minds.
God forbids that anyone should be charged under ISA. I personally would not even think it applicable to even my worst enemies. Let those who have committed wrongs be subject to the due process of the law. Let the good sense and sanity returns to Parliament and may we see an end of this draconian act that have had serve its purpose during the era of communism. Engage the Malay brothers who shared a common interest in politics such as PAS, PK and even NGOs to ensure that the govt heed the calls of the peoples of Malaysia that we do not need this act anymore.
We are peace loving Malaysians and cares for the goodness of each other and not like those portray by some racists and corrupted politicians that uses the maxim of divide to rule. God saves this beloved nation from those imbecile politicians that care only for their position and personal wealths.
Your struggle to date may have been slow but nonetheless I believe that there are many people that are greatly impacted by your unwavering stand and surely the lights at the end of the long tunnel will be bright.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 09.36
Sheih Kickdefella is charged under the Sedition Act, not the ISA. The argument against the charge is the same - flying the flag upside down cannot be considered seditious.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 15.32
Yes now lets work on RPK.
Get him out fellas.
Pile the criticism up high.
Pile them on idiots who has noting but ISA.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 20.29
The intellectual bankruptcy of Malaysia will be a reality soon if the false accusers and real perpetrators of racial and religious provocations are not brought to court with the same vigour as they incorrectly put Teresa Kok and countless others in jail without trial.
I agree with Teresa that the ISA should not be used. One wrong cannot be corrected by another wrong. That is vengeance but the rakyat is only asking for fair justice, be it in principle or enforcement.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 29.10
Thanks to the shocker from Zaid and the vehement protests by so many freedom-loving, God-fearing, sensible and fine citizens of Malaysia, Teresa is now free.
It also proves to be a damning indictment of the BN government and the police force. The BN government and Police must be held accountable. How is a harmless lady and MP like Teresa ever be a national security threat!
Somebody has to get his head checked. At least Syed Hamid and IGP must get theirs checked.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 37.47
YB Teresa, welcome back from your “break”. You are now the proud member of ISA club. Who else love Malaysia more than to sacrify oneself unconditionally.
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 38.43
The ISA has indeed outlived its shelf life. It was the BN who announced that the communists in Malaysia have been eliminated and so what is the use of keeping this act which was meant to be used against the communists? Unless of course if BN considers all those working against it as “communists”! But that would again be a SLAP on the face of AAB who heads the BN if there are still “communists” in Malaysia despite BN’s declaration of having eliminated them!
September 19th, 2008 at 19: 40.54
I am so glad that Teresa is finally released. Abolish ISA.
September 19th, 2008 at 20: 02.55
three cheers for democracy !!! Abolish ISA !!!
September 19th, 2008 at 20: 07.31
On release of Teresa, Botak talked nuts. So did Gerakan KTK, but now he started talking loud.
September 19th, 2008 at 20: 07.42
While we rejoice with all those being released
Let us remember to pray on for those still detained
Freedom for all innocent ones is what all sane people relish
Afterall good, transparent governance and accountability are what we all want to retain

Your courage, your stand for the people’s rights will propel you far ahead & to fare much better in the next GE. This time let’s see not only you win Seputeh with a bigger majority, but to see BN lose their deposit money.
September 19th, 2008 at 20: 40.49
Tommrows headlines in all chiness papers Ong T K said “” THE
RELEASED OF TERESA KOK YESTERDAY WAS THE EFFORT OF MCA”"
After having a close door meeting with PAK LAH regarding the arrest of TERESA KOK under the ISA.PAK LAH said that he will look into the matter. PAK LAH also said that he will call the Deputy IGP blah blah blah blah.
THIS IS HOW MCA AND ITS GOONS HELP THE RATYAT.

”
Teresa Kok’s Release Decided Entirely By Police, Says Syed Hamid
PUTRAJAYA, Sept 19 (Bernama) — Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar said the release of the Seputeh Member of Parliament, Teresa Kok, from detention under the Internal Security Act (ISA) was decided entirely by the police without referring to him or requiring his approval.
”
So it is confirmed :
1. The Police is in charge, is king in this country. Not the Minister or Cabinet.
2. The Minister and government does not know what the heck is going on. Are they in control? Is our security assured?
3. Botak does not want to make any more stupid statements.
The Reporter is free. The MP is free.
Only the King (Raja) is in jail, together with many others.
September 19th, 2008 at 21: 03.28
FREE RPK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FREE HINDRAF 5 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FREEDOM FROM ISA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Free ISA petition. Please read it again.
http://harismibrahim.wordpress.com/2008/09/19/petition-to-free-rpk-teresa-all-isa-detainees/
Friends,
Does it make sense to seek the release of all 65 detainees while at the same time condoning or rather supporting the use of ISA on “armed terrorists and those out to topple the government by force” - the very charges faced by the Hindraf 5 and those supposedly linked to the JI movement.
As long as the ISA is in the statues it will be open to abuse. The government can classify anyone a “terrorist” if it wants to, as conveniently as Anwar is made a sodomite and as conveniently as the Hindraf 5 are linked to the Tamil Tigers and as conveniently as Teresa Kok is made national threat.
Also remember the grounds for ISA detention is NOT open to review by the courts as the Ministers Order is final. This is a draconian law and it must be repealed.
So, do you still support the ISA?
September 19th, 2008 at 21: 12.45
wooooooooohoooooooooooooooooooooo
yea yea kita menang
yea yea kita menang
NOW FREE RPK

Terrasa, thank Buddha u have been released ..::)
September 19th, 2008 at 21: 14.28
“[The law] should only be used on armed terrorists or those out to topple the government by force,” .
The above sentence in the petition should be deleted.

“”It was also ironic that the morning they arrested me, I was explaining to 300 businessmen from China that Malaysia was a politically stable country for them to do business with.” - YB Teresa Kok
http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/90082
__________________________
