Elections to the Federal level are different from elections at the State Level in Malaysia. https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Malaysia#Governance The people in Penang for example vote for the secular Democratic Action Party. The very religious Kelantan votes for PAS, and PKR capitalises upon the reputation of former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar and basically argues for the same things the DAP argues for. The ruling coalition known as the Barisan Nasional frequently destroys instruments of civil liberty including a just publicised attempt to censor the Internet. It is hardly a choice of the people choosing their governments when their governments gives them no safe outlet to oppose them.
