The two ISA demonstrations planned for tomorrow are pointless since the government is already in the process of reviewing the security law, said Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak today.

"The most important thing is for them to give their ideas and feedback on how the government should improve the Act.

"Demonstrations will not solve any problems," he told reporters after chairing the Umno supreme council meeting at the party headquarters in Kuala Lumpur.

Tomorrow, two groups - one opposing and the other supporting the ISA - will take to the streets in Kuala Lumpur.

The Abolish ISA Movement (GMI by its Malay abbreviation) and Majlis Permuafakatan Ummah (Pewaris) have separately said they would go ahead with their gatherings despite stern police warnings.

Starting today, the police have also set up roadblocks at major traffic arteries throughout the Klang Valley towards Kuala Lumpur ahead of these two mass rallies.

ISA should not be politicised

Najib said the ISA should not be politicised as the government vowed to review the Act in accordance with the present situation.

"But there are still some people out there who want to stage demonstrations by turning it into a political agenda," he said.

Najib however declined to comment on PAS' decision to make it compulsory for all of its members to participate in the rally tomorrow, saying that his statement earlier applied to everybody.

"I am making this statement in general. Looking at our principles, we need to prioritise the discussion process by receiving feedback from the people. That is the most important thing," he said.
