This is a very big news in Malaysia.
12th of September 2008, 3 people: Raja Petra, Sin-Chiew Journalist (Yun Ching) and Teresa Kwok were arrested under Internal Security Act (ISA)
Raja Petra was arrested, given a reason that his article shows Desecration of Islam.

Whereas Sin-Chiew Journalist was arrested, because of reporting Ahmad Ismail issue wrongly and cause religious tension. Ahmad Ismail (Umno,BN) insists he didn't say anything wrong.
But MCA(BN) supports the journalist.
Datuk Ong Tee Keat: If the issue will cause religious tension, why blame the reporter but not the person who said that? Charge him/her in the court if he/she is guilty, why ISA?

Dato Seri Ong Ka Ting: Release the journalist if not MCA will do something.

Teresa Kwok (DAP) was arrested over a religious manner.
But even Dr Hatta Ramli from PAS doesn't agree about it. (since it's about Islam, PAS suppose to be the angriest one~)
Umno said something wrong, catch the reporter. DAP said something wrong, catch the one who said. What is the logic behind? I really don't know. But what I totally agree with what Malaysian Bar Council president Ambiga Sreenevasan said, that ISA is totally unfair in civilized Nation.
