clause to effect greater transparency, and justice for all, regardless of nationality. It was a gigantic step towards greater democratization for Malaysia which puts her way ahead of many other countries in the region. Mr Kasi, fearlessly defended his client with robust and pertinent arguments and was able to secure victory for justice, not just for one man. He paved the way and set a precedent in law from which others will benefit for posterity. Surely, his name should go down iin history for this, often perceived as impossible feat.
