No government, not even your parents, brothers or sisters can stop you from expressing your own views and opinions. If views and opinions can help propel you to great heights, they can also destroy you at the blink of an eye. For words are sharper than the sword.
In a free society, you should not be stopped from speaking your minds on how your government is being run. It is your right. But rights too have their limits and limits are dictated by who are in power. Raja Petra Kamaruddin went beyond the boundaries in speaking up to what he believed were the truth and ended up in muddy waters. Now he is a wanted man. He disappeared from sight, only his blog remains.
Do not let this one unhealthy incident fooled you from expressing your views and opinions. Keep away from what you know are half truths, lies and the like. And so be it if anyone were to take you as being negative for upholding the truth. That's your right of choice to right the wrong!
