    Lock and Load for Malaysia.

    Banning these books or any other books for that matter is basically undermining the capacity of Malaysian people in critically filtering and assessing information.

    Nice to see Malaysia thinks so highly of its citizens capacity to think for themselves!

    You may find the latest casualties on my blog http://patahbalek.blogspot.com/.

    As recent as November last year, another Indonesian book was also banned. See my posting here http://patahbalek.blogspot.com/2007/11/fiqh-perempuan.html

    See also these two letters from Malaysiakini.com readers.
