Sin Chew Daily journalist, Tan Hoon Cheng, who was released yesterday after being detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) for almost 18 hours stood her ground, indicating her commitment to professional journalism.
Tan, whose detention by Home Minister Datuk Seri Syed Hamid Albar was meant to ‘ensure her safety’, insisted that she wrote what she heard on the night on the eve of the Permatang Pauh parliamentary by-election when the then Bukit Bendera UMNO chief Datuk Ahmad Ismail allegedly a racist remarks that the Chinese community in Malaysia were mere 'squatters or lodgers' and should not demand to be treated equal.
Been unfazed by this recent development in her career, Tan claimed she would not quit and instead ‘will continue to work as a free and fair journalist’ with a brave and encouraging comment and an unwavering commitment to her profession.

Tan Hoon Cheng,
Don't worry our heroe Namewee form Muar will help you. http://www.youtube.com/user/namewee
Can someone confirm to me whether Sin Chew reporter, Miss Tan is:
a hard-core remnant of the 3rd batalion of Chin Peng's Sadao-based bintang tiga?;
an underlink to the Taliban/Mujahideen freedom fighters’ caucus in Afghanistan?;
a staunch supporter of Hizbollah in Beirut?;
a special agent/mercenary who knows how to ignite C4 explosives at the back of her palms?;
an dangerous black market arms dealer from the Kazakhstan mountains?;
an underworld staunch disciple of Ayah Pin's sky kingdom? Anyone, please.
