Enough

I lost my hamster today and it crushes my heart so badly, so imagine how Teoh's family would feel about his death. We might be a sympathetic observer, but we could never felt what is being feel by his family. We are angry, we demand truth, justice, but after the hype, what actual actions would people take, (I would recommend one, register to be a voter and vote for "change") how can we continuously show our determination of wanting a more lucid government? I'm sure he is not the first, nor the last victim, of course rational says this is yet to be proven.
History is educative, and 50 years-old history is sufficient for us people to have an idea what is true and what is not, we have already held a primary judgment, or at least instinct, on what causes his death.
Condolence to his family.

John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, first Baron Acton (1834–1902). The historian and moralist, who was otherwise known simply as Lord Acton, expressed this opinion in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton in 1887:

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men."

I believe it's relevant to us.
