Majalah Fortune telah menemubual saya dan hasilnya disiarkan pada 23 Oktober 2006. Banyak persoalan yang sering ditimbulkan didalam blog ini telah saya jawab dan sekali lagi penegasan saya jelas mengenai isu isu yang ditimbulkan.
Many use the notion of Asian values to make excuses for governments that do not support democracy, accountability, the need for a free press and an active civil society. Others say security and development take precedence over freedom and democracy.
I don’t accept any of this. Certainly there may be regional variations in how business is done, but accountability, universal human rights, an independent judiciary and a free press are not Western or Eastern values. They are universal values that we should all embrace.
