![]() Gerakan fails to submit ISA memo to KingPublished Aug 1st, 2009Gerakan Youth today failed to submit a memorandum to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to call for the removal of the Internal Security Act.
The ISA has been consistently used against people who criticise the government and defend human rights. Known as the “white terror”, it has been the most feared and despised, yet convenient tool for the state to suppress opposition and open debate. The Act is seen by some as an instrument maintained by the ruling government to control public life and civil society. The ISA was used extensively during the 1987 Operation Lalang in which Opposition members were silenced by the UMNO government through the use of ISA. Many opposition leaders were detained without trial, evidence or reason. The ISA was also used to detain Anwar Ibrahim. ![]()
