“Perak: A State of Crisis” | Remember, Review & Reclaim | 12.12
By Lord Bobo
PERAK: A STATE OF CRISIS | REMEMBER, REVIEW & RECLAIM | 12.12 | by LoyarBurok
It has been (almost) 2 years since the Perak constitutional crisis first erupted, and still, there are ongoing repercussions. The litigation has yet to end. The scars have yet to heal. Whilst the political upheavals were occurring, contributors to Malaysia’s top blawg (www.LoyarBurok.com) documented the stories as they unfolded, ranted about the shenanigans as they happened and reflected on the cases as they were being decided. As elections loom, the rakyat are urged to remember the iconic Perak Crisis, where the most blatant travesties of constitutional law took place. elected representatives betrayed their constituents. the judicial process was both celebrated and vilified. ordinary citizens were oppressed. It is a period that some quarters might think the rakyat have now forgotten. But many Malaysians still hope to elect a government of their choice, and to participate in the constitutional process afforded them. Everyone is keen that their votes should count for something. In the ONLY book of its kind to-date, LoyarBurok presents: “PERAK: A STATE OF CRISIS“
Featuring a comprehensive blow-by-blow account of the crisis and cutting-edge analysis of the events by:
Amer Hamzah Arshad || Andrew Harding || Art Harun || Cheang Lek Choy || Deborah Loh || Edmund Bon || Fahri Azzat || Kevin YL Tan || NH Chan || Professor Shad Saleem Faruqi || Shanmuga K
edited by Audrey Quay
foreword by Wan Saiful Wan Jan (IDEAS)
commended by Azmi Sharom, Marina Mahathir, Yeo Yang Poh
