An Open Letter to RPK

An Open Letter to RPK Wednesday, 07 May 2008 Dear Raja Petra, You must not languish in custody. We have to get you out on bail. If on ground of principle, you do not wish to pay it, I will pay it. It's extremely important that you come back to us to continue your courageous acts. I have been telling my children that if there is a Malaysian role-model we can look to, it is none of the BN goons, certainly not the Prime Minister and his cohorts, absolutely not the so-called spaceman, nor the sailor who fell from grace with the sea and yet got celebrated. The real Malaysian role-model is you, sir. For courage, for standing up for what you believe in, for defying oppression, for exposing the truth despite the odds. This is a time for heroes. And we need our heroes to be free, to fight, to stand up for us all. Not spend time in prison. We need the truth to be made known. We need the truth to set our beloved country free. We need you to be free. Sincerely, Kee Thuan Chye ...link
