The Yellow Pimpernell

The Yellow Pimpernell

Sir,

Mr Thomas Ibo (sec. MSA) claimed that the allegation against the Malaysian government's spying activities is not true. He regarded the allegation as 'a mere collection of slogans which neither help nor guide Malaysian students but only confuse them.' For his information and benefit (as well as for the students of this campus) we have obtained information from reliable sources in Kuala Lumpur, that the Malaysian Security Services keeps dossiers on Malaysian students (in the country as well as abroad) who are opposed to the policies of the Malaysian government. In fact the Malaysian Securitiy Service has dossiers on a few of the Malaysian Students on this campus.

Mr Ibo must be naive if he thinks that the Malaysian High Commission would inform him, the MSA or anyone else about their spying activities.

Counter Secret Agent No. 5.

P.S. The other day a man was seen going into 175 Taranaki street from a car with a D.C. plate flying a Malaysian flag.
