A recent article by this Don Quixote (Ridhuan Tee) is rather disturbing, not only for the non-Malays but the Malays as well. While many think that this Don is trying to defend Malay Rights and religion, it has turned out to be an embarrassment for the Malays.

Such a topic is best left to the politicians to fight for, and not an educationist.

As a member of the Pakatan Task Force on Anti-GST, I write in response to the letter that appeared in Views of the The Star, Thursday, 24th December 2009.

Aliran is appalled by the statement of Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar claiming that the Sri Kembangan state assembly member Ean Yong Hian Wah had intimidated the police when he called on them to stop their investigation of DAP Secretary-General Lim Guan Eng, for alleged sedition.
