While we’ve both IGP Musa Hassan and Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein urging the public not to speculate on the death of political aide Teo Beng Hock, or risk being questioned by the police, the conscience of Umno Tengku Razaleigh is calling Malaysians to continue “asking questions” about the death.
It is our right and indeed our duty as citizens to keep asking questions when someone dies under circumstances that put the entire government under a shadow. As we ask these questions let us accept our joint responsibility to push uncompromisingly for an overhaul of the key institutions that have rotted through under exactly the kind of authoritarianism that would prohibit discussion of the circumstances of the death of Mr Teoh Beng Hock.
Okay, you got me, Sir!
I’ll continue to talk about it until the Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak announces a formation of Royal Commission to investigate on the matter, and action is being taken on it, unlike the recommendations of previous royal commissions such as the one that investigated the VK Lingam case of alleged judge fixing and on improving the police force, which were totally ignored by the Government.
Don’t repeat the same mistake by Pak Lah.

The IGP and the Home Minister must be nuts. If we as citizens do not have the right to ask questions, what the hell are they trying to tell us – are they turning Malaysia into a Police State?
Do the two ‘otak udangs’ know that Transparency and Accountability is what a Democratic Nation is all about?
