As a Malaysian, I am hurt and my conscience is battered. What do I tell my many foreign friends about the truth of our judiciary. I am referring to the latest episode. (A great legacy of the past is gone.) What do I tell my children one day? Do I tell them the truth?

If my conscience is hurt as a commoner, how about the retired judge involved. How is he going to face society. I read of corrupted regimes and the fall of several empires in the past due to such injustices but now it is happening at my door step.

I am ashamed to be a Malaysian. But at least I can be proud to have voted for the opposition. I believe those who have voted for the ruling party should be feeling equally hurt, i.e. if they are fair minded Malaysians.
