Mr. Speaker, while we were at the meeting in Kuala Lumpur I had the occasion to meet with Mr. Lim's father to discuss the treatment that his son had received in terms of raising issues as part of his parliamentary duties.
Subsequent to that we were able to raise with the minister of foreign affairs the way in which the judicial system was being used to suppress certain statements and expressions of freedom of point of view.
I also asked our high commission there to register officially our concern and to continue to monitor the situation. I am hoping we will be able to meet with Mr. Lim during a meeting on human rights that will be held in Edmonton this weekend.
