The book records significant events in the life of Malaysia. Was the prosecution of Anwar about upholding moral values or was the law used simply as a weapon against a political adversary? The book raises further questions about the human condition. It is about how we treat each other; how laws impose upon a community certain values, cultural prejudices and even decrees how a community must act. Should citizens be ruled by law, or the rule of law?Featuring special guest Azmi Sharom.
