Time to get even
The defamation suit against me, the blogger, is over one year old and no new grounds had been made to face off the plaintiffs -- NSTP & Others -- in the open court.
With or without judiciary reforms in Malaysia, I have decided to take the offensive and take them on, one by one, big man or small man.
I have been asked to set aside another RM12,000.00 for the out-of-pocket cost (paperwork, photostating, filing expenses etc) in defending myself, and I am determined to clear my name. Kalimullah Masheerul Hassan, Hishamuddin Aun and Brendan Pereira, who sued me alongside the listed company, the NSTP, must be prepared to see me to the last drop. It's also time to say all that should be said in the court, with evidence.
Ketuanan Rakyat
Yesterday, April 14, Anwar Ibrahim completed his political jail sentence. One of his keynotes is that the Pakatan Rakyat coalition will be championing people's supremacy (ketuanan rakyat) and will bring about changes to the economy, education and political systems.
People's Power crushed Umno supremacy in five states. Tell me, what else People's Power cannot do to crush Umno's mouthpieces in the print media in this blogger-Internet epoch?
WALK WITH US and watch this space.

Will you be doing this on your own expense?
JEFF OOI says: Looks 100% like it at the moment. Luckily, the barrister's side (arguing in court) of the legal cost is provided pro bono by the team of lawyers.

Hi Jeff,
First of all, congrats on your new status as politician. While I believe that you can do a lot of good in your new position, I recognised as well that you style of writing has changed. It becomes more aggressive, and now, the title of this post says pointingly "Time To Get Even". I hope that the observant Jeff that I knew is not forgotten and that you don't become revengeful, thinking, that it is pay-back time.
While I can understand that feeling, would it also cause you to reach your goals?
But may be I just misunderstood a couple of your last entries, or, especially this one. If yes, accept my apologies :)
Andreas
