Looks to me like it’s a selective intimidation case.
while being empathic for Nat, his family, and the plight of those others who fight for political justice, i honestly detest the idea of the association of Nat being arrested for being a blogger, or any such association "blogger = arrested" particularly because of his direct involvement in politics in real life, in the first place. being a Malaysian blogger does NOT make you a political blogger, or someone involved in politics. please do not shame the name of "blogger".
