Ikut Suka Abdullah (Badawi)

YES, the draconian ISA is now used to curb what the government see as a threat to national security. The way I see it, is none other than the threat to the government and not it's people or the country. The PM should be ashamed. Let us rally each other and say NO TO BN in the coming general election.
