This is the statement i placed on the Perdana Global Peace website to stop Tony Blair from being welcomed into the country:
Malaysian should begin to take a stronger stand against the atrocities happening in the world. It is the only way for us to be true global players. Tony Blair, like his big brother GW Bush, will go down in history as a public figure who played a major role in the atrocities taking place in the world this century. Our children and children’s children will read about them in their history books and question how their forefathers allowed such a criminal a state welcome despite their know atrocities. We also want the Malaysian children, now and in future, to be proud of the role we, Malaysians played, albeit in an indirect manner to curb the respect and accolade showed onto these criminals who still have the blood of innocent Iraqi civilians on their hands. Do not allow Tony Blair to enter the country as a former statesman. Our great grand children will scorn and mock us for our lack of courage and dignity to do the right thing when we had the chance. This is the legacy that we will leave behind, lest we forget.
