Breaking the code of silence book 90 as a side reference as most of the discourse requires a reference to the document The book as a whole provided a factual discourse between what was written and envisioned during the formation of Malaysia with current lived realities I have to admit that Part I felt a bit repetitious for me as most of the arguments are similar and and the same cases are cited in all chapters It is also the biggest chunk of the book rightly so as the objectives of G25 is to have a legal discourse on shariah laws within a constitutional democracy As a non lawyer however I found some parts a bit too technical but appreciate the elaborate attempts to convey the legal discourse to the general public such as myself I am inclined and incited by Parts II and III whereby sociopolitical commentaries were made General Comments The Orang Asli seems to have been omitted yet again by another publication and discourse on this country called Malaysia If I understand correctly this view do not align with the universal just compassionate values that followers of the religion should profess Some editing comments There are a number of typos true of any publications and I would have personally preferred for footnotes to be separated from references and for footnotes to be presented at the bottom of the page wherein the footnote is required This would reduce the need to flip through the pages and provide a undisturbed flow of reading I wish that Malaysians will read this book particularly our political leaders I wish that everyone who read this book would be inclined to be included as whom the book is dedicated to I wish that students and the next generation of Malaysians would read digest and be inspired by this publication to work towards a progressive just and inclusive Malaysia At the very least I hope that understanding the Federal Constitution The Malaysian Agreement and the Rukun Negara are included and made compulsory in History subjects from now on at all school levels Not just memorising but allowed to discuss and compare debate with current realities Questions on next steps 1 Would this book receive audience among against English language parties necessitating a transliteration into Bahasa Malaysia 2 Would parties whose ambitions is to harmonise shariah laws with Malaysia s civil secular Laws be privy of this book 3 Would this book even reach the hands of many Malaysians given that we are a society of non readers I remain a na ve optimist and hope that would pick this up p s Also love the cover design G25 Malaysia
