They dont/They don't speak for us
(No Surprises - Radiohead)
I was somewhat amused at this news: I don't know about you, but don't you think they're kinda blowing things off proportion here when they said, "All three publications have been banned for their contents that can influence the people to revolt against the leaders and government policies"?
Besides showing a certain lack of confident/faith/whatever value that they are holding in treating us publics, I think the probability of the masses (here, at least) revolting (after reading some comics, no less) are kinda small, if not non-existent... come on, we're talking about people who's all talk and no action; this is Malaysia, after all.
And I wonder if after this move, people would go far in obtaining those comics, just because they're 'banned books'...
