Malaysia to abolish unpopular security law
Malaysia will abolish an unpopular, colonial-era security law allowing detention without trial and relax other measures curbing the media and the right to free assembly, Prime Minister Najib Razak announced Thursday.
Malaysia vowed to beef up security Monday, March 4 in Sabah, where at least 26 people have been reported killed after a bizarre invasion by Philippine followers of one of the heirs of the former Sultan of Sulu.
