actually the statement is true, just that the government controlled media is too scared to report. the media both print and television (channels not owned by the government) have to get lisence every year to function and if they showcase any wrong doings of the gvt, it takes just one officer to ensure that the lisence is revoked. it has been used, but mostly missused. unfortunatly in malaysia the religious seems to have greater power than the highest judicila body- the high court, and there has been instances where the High court has had to abide to the decision of the religious court. there is a debate also going on whether that nation is a moslem country or a country where there islam is the offical religion. what is the difference between these two i dont know, but it seems really Weird. the present leadership seems to have accepted the multireligious nature of the country but the problem is with the future who has already shown signs or staunch islamic malay rule in the lines of countries like iran. But the problem is that the countrys economy is this strong due to efforts of the indian and chineese communities which is getting jittery due to the statements that are made by the youth malay leaders. what happens in that nation- only time will tell, and by the way the present Indian UPA govt seems to have no, absolutly no intrest in the welfare of indian nationals in malaysia. looks like they are just happy to see indian nationals being killed at the hands of these malays.
