Bersih rally: UMNO representatives say there’s no need for political reform in Malaysia
EDITOR’S NOTE:
Minister Nazri Abdul Aziz said the use of water cannons and tear gas at the Bersih rally is not considered a use of force.
Khairy Jamaluddin, deputy UMNO Youth leader, said Bersih protesters do not represent the political consciousness of the Malaysian public.
Malik Imtiaz Sarwar, human rights lawyer, said the Official Secrets Act and the Internal Security Act prohibits fair distribution of information that will create more informed voters.
