Bloggers against book banning

I’ve added a “Bloggers against book banning” logo on the sidebar. It links to a blog highlighting the banning and restriction of books entering Malaysia. Among the articles is one which summarizes the way in which the entry books are being restricted and gives a list of books being restricted in this manner. Among them are children’s books. I wonder when the Kementerian Keselamatan Dalam Negeri will explain its rationale for the restriction of the books.

Update: The “Manuscripts don’t burn” blog links to the KKDN site with a list of banned books. These do not include the list of “restricted” books.
