Kua: I wouldn’t give in to depression

Sixty days of solitary confinement in a windowless room with a naked lightbulb on all the time was like mental torture, says Dr Kua.

The pain of seeing his family suffer pushed this former lawmaker to the limit.

BEING detained under the now-repealed Internal Security Act three decades ago had such a demoralising effect on Dr Kua Kia Soong that the former DAP lawmaker decided to record his experiences in a book after his release.
