Okay, so here’s the deal. It seems that most of us are still pretty ignorant regarding our rights in Malaysia, particularly when it involves dealing with the police. Here’s your chance to know it all. Sure, you COULD visit the Malaysian BAR Council site to get your very own copy of it. Or, you can download it here. :)
Here’s the link: The Little Red Book of Rights
And the Malay version of it, if you want: Buku Merah Mengenai Hak Anda
Personally, I believe that it’s prerogative for everyone to understand their have rights, and they should exercise them. Don’t be afraid of the cops. It’s rather unfortunate when people are ignorant of their basic human rights, and permit the police to abuse their authoritative powers.
Don’t let the bloody cops have their way. You’re a human being. You have human rights. USE THEM TO YOUR BEST KNOWLEDGE!
