Deep inside the weblog of Zorro-Unmasked, lodged somewhere between entries on Man U, by-elections, Hantus and fart chambers, the Malaysian police are peering at a particular posting that may be deemed seditious.

 

Now, by conventional wisdom, sedition would refer to clear and present situations which are potentially explosive to the country. Blogger Bernard Khoo is being investigated for content in Zorro-Unmasked blog that was supposedly entered way back in 2008.

 

In the year or so since, the country remained firmly on its feet, no party nor community went into seizures over the said topic, and Hadhari transitioned into 1. In fact, practically nobody remembers what the posting was about. Instead, many will remember exhortations of more venomous proportions by other parties that have been overlooked by the very same authorities.


What does that tell you, folks?

 

Bernard Khoo aka Uncle Zorro, Uncle Bernard, Brother Khoo was instructed to come to PDRM's Cyber Crime Division this afternoon. He was assisted by lawyers Ashok, Chandra and Haris. They were in there for about 1-1/2 hours while about 25 well-wishers waited at a bus-stop opposite the complex.


More details of the interview will probably be posted in due time by the media and Zorro himself, we're sure, but the question remains - will this cow the voices in cyberspace?

 

Well, here's a clue: When the 70-year-old grandpa emerged from the station, his chin was up.


Food for thought:
