Promoting liberal ideas in a country like Malaysia is never an easy undertaking. The country presents a good mixture of conservatism, statism, and perhaps more importantly, ignorance about what liberalism really is. In this book Wan Saiful Wan Jan attempts to tackle the various policy challenges as they arose. Some of his comments, written as opinion articles that were published in Malaysian press, are topical and bonded to the time during which they were written, while some others are more of a “big picture” commentary. This book also contains new content that has not been published elsewhere: and a specially-commissioned interview by prolific writer Eddin Khoo and an epilogue by Wan Saiful Wan Jan. Dato' Ibrahim Ali, President of Perkasa, wrote the foreword.
