Unjust Order: Malaysia's Internal Security Act
 -
 Nicole Fritz & Martin Flaherty



Although government of newly independent countries have been generally tried to put as much distance as possible between themselves and their colonial predecessors, they have often gleefully adopted colonial security measures to maintain their positions. Malaysia's Internal Security Act, enacted by a newly independent Malaya varied little from its colonial parent, the British Emergency Regulations. This is a report, based on interviews with lawyers, politicians and others, by a couple of US human rights lawyers on how the Malaysian Government was still using it, mainly to put political opponents out of the way, some 40 years after its enactment. Very Good Paperback. First Edition 121 pages
