MAY 2 — Are Malaysians misinformed? Despite the internet and the world wide web, are Malaysians any more knowledgeable now than we were 50 years ago? I think not.
On May 1, 2019, part of a headline in a local daily read “with regime change” The article was about how an influential Malaysian NGO managed to achieve more democratic space since Pakatan Harapan came to power. The report confirmed that Putrajaya is now more open to listening to non-profit groups and rights activists when formulating its policies. That this was in a headline, and not the main body of text is embarrassing.
Iran is a good example. In 1979 the Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was overthrown. The revolution replaced the monarchy with an Islamic Republic. A hereditary monarchical system was replaced by a theocratic republic, two completely different political systems.
