NST’s missing the wood for the trees
En Zainul Arifin has written some remarks regarding the whole Police abuse scandal in the NST today, and you can find the link to the article here: “Let’s not miss the wood for the trees“. I’m wondering whether any of his points are fair; I’m sure they are, if we read his remarks without qualification. I tend to believe that the truth is stranger than fiction, and that when examined properly, it does appear that generalizations have a basis in some truth (who woulda thought I’d say this…), that is to say, confirming the perception of the people who either make these generalizations or believe these generalizations.
Anyway, I’ve got some spare time, so I thought I’d look at his article properly (or as much as my liquified brains can tahan).
