Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak’s decision to maintain and further strengthen the Sedition Act has drawn mixed responses: http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/281779

Lawyers for Liberty (LFL) executive director Eric Paulsen dismissed the prime minister, who had earlier promised to repeal the Act, as a “false democrat”.

“In holding on to power, he is willing to do anything including leaving his ‘moderate’ image and becoming an ultra-Malay right advocate, retaining an odious legislation, by his own words a ‘relic from a bygone era’.

“Not surprising since he has been flip-flopping for a while now despite his repeated promise to abolish the Sedition Act,” he said.
