I do not think Malaysiakini.com and supporters should be apologetic or defensive over the allegation that it is funded by George Soros. I think we should openly express our gratitude to that Good Samaritan, if indeed he is one.

What is wrong for George Soros to invest real money in Malaysia? Isn't Dr Mahathir Mohamad's Multimedia Super Corridor also financed by Americans and Japanese? Does that mean that Putrajaya is now a centre of American and Japanese spies? An investigation should indeed be made into the question of who finances Mahathir's frequent trips to Japan and all over the world. May be Barisan Alternatif parliamentarians can help to check the accounts of Wisma Putra.
