                    [Title] => Malaysian lawyer slams KL government over deportees
                    [Summary] => A Malaysian lawyer-activist sharply criticized his own government for what he described as "inhuman" treatment of Filipino deportees from Sabah.


"The Malaysian government has treated them in an inhuman way," said K. Haridas, an official of the Malaysia-based International Movement for Just World who is in town for a gathering of peace activists from around the region.

"While I believe that migration is a problem that my government should address, I don’t believe it should handle it this way."

P. Haridas says the secret to his country’s success in the recent Southeast Asian (SEA) Games is cooperation. Not that there isn’t any squabbling among Malaysian sports officials.

In fact, the Malaysian Amateur Athletics Union has come under heavy fire lately for its overstaying and incompetent officials. No less than Malaysian Sports Minister Datuk Hishammuddin Hussein is taking a firm stand in censuring the MAAU for its rigged electoral system which guarantees virtual lifetime terms for officials.
