Malaysia Human Rights Report 2011: Civil & Political Rights
SUARAM’S annual Human Rights Report on Malaysia is widely recognized as the most objective, comprehensive and dependable source of information of the state of human rights defenders that take place in Malaysia during the year.
On the eve of Malaysia Daya 2011, Prime Minister Najib Razak took many by surprise by announcing that his administration, in turning Malaysia into a modern and progressive nation, would abolish the draconian and outdated Internal Security Act 1960 and other legislation such as the Emergency proclamations, Restricted Residence Act 1933 and Banishment Act 1959.
By the end of 2011, the ISA remained not only in place but was also employed against suspected militants after its abolishment had been pronounced. Also, the arrest of six members of Parti Sosialis Malaysia under the Emergency (Public Order and Prevention Crime) Ordinance 1969 (‘EO’) spoke volumes about the Prime Minister’s commitment to his promises.
