comment The nation is in severe pain as we follow news of the tragic death of Teoh Beng Hock, who reportedly fell from the building that houses the Selangor headquarters of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission in Shah Alam.

We don’t know him, his family or his colleagues. But we have shed tears as we watched and read the horrible news. These tears were shed because we are ashamed of our government; a government that cannot even deliver its basic duty to deliverg safety and security to its citizens.
