People are still living with the “make don’t know” attitude. People are still allowing racialism to rule the day. And people are still complacent about what are happening around them. Then, what are these people made of?

Whether anyone likes it or not, we have to gather all information root and branch, and allow our thinking faculty to ponder a little further intelligently by asking why death in police custody is still happening.

Is their thinking faculty so shallow that they are unable to understand the semantic of right from wrong? No, I do not think so, but the attitude itself that people have, has harnessed my belief that “they” expect someone else’s to take the trouble and initiative to get justice done while “they” continue to be the lounge critics. Pathetic!

It is a crying shame to see fellow Malaysians dying one after another despite no clear evidence of the crime committed. No matter who is the person, justice must prevail even for a criminal.

There is no surprise that many people can live with excuses and without guilt as well, because whoever dies is not their next-of-kin. By then, if it happens to his/her own flesh and blood, such people will shout at the world and condemn others for not giving their support to seek for justice.
Where were you when we needed you? How can we be there for you when you have refused to hold the hands of the other members of the civil society? When anyone refuses to stand up and be counted, blame no one but yourself because you have brought whatever the consequence to yourself!

This is what people are made of!

  1. We are who we are now because of the Malaysian education system which not only impedes critical thinking but to follow and accept knowledge given to us blindly.
