Nik Aziz: People lack channel to express feelings KOTA BARU: The emergence of demonstrations in Malaysia stems from a lack of channels for people to express their feelings and opinions, Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat said.Speaking after lauching the website of the Kelantan PAS Dewan Muslimat (Women's wing) here yesterday, Nik Aziz said expression of thoughts and feelings was part and parcel of being human. "That's why there is such a thing as newspapers. People want to know what's happening. However, the channel of communication (PAS ceramah) is being blocked here and there, and this gives rise to discontent,'' he said. However, Nik Aziz said he opposed violent demonstrations. In Alor Star, PAS Youth chief Mahfuz Omar denied yesterday having told Mingguan Malaysia that he supported plans to topple the Government by force. He said it was PAS' stand that any change in the ruling government must be through the democratic process. In Petaling Jaya, PRM questioned the police's speedy response to investigate Keadilan Youth chief Ezam Mohd Noor. Its president Dr Syed Husin Ali said the police had acted unfairly by not acting on various police reports against several government leaders. Keadilan deputy president Dr Chandra Muzaffar said none of the party's leaders had ever advocated to overthrow the government through violence.
