Azmi Sharom?
UPDATED VERSION. I read Azmi Sharom's letter to Malaysiakini yesterday.
Is he the same Dr Azmi Sharom, the young associate professor of the Law Faculty of Universiti Malaya? I remember Prof Azmi wrote an open letter to the Minister in charge of Higher Education in The Star, March 11, 2006. I also remember he was censured for a piece he wrote about student elections
Also, could Jeffrey be John Wise?
UPDATES: Prof Azmi confirmed with me that it was his letter in Malaysiakini. By exposing his real name, he must be classified as a responsible blogger online reader.
Comments
This Jeffrey sounded like like a commenter in Uncle Kit's blog under the "RealWorld" nick. Same person?

No, i do not think so. It is not a piece of someone who knows law. Defamatory action can be pursued by anyone, irrespective of whether the party is an ordinary person or a corporation. The merit is purely on law and not on anything.
