The government recently clamped down on Facebook for security reasons. We don't support this decision at all. It is like cutting the head off to cure headache.

In a democratic state there should be space for free expression of views and opinions. Nowadays, social media sites like Facebook have become an inseparable part of our daily lives. It helps us keep in touch with our friends and relatives abroad and at home. We exchange our joys and sorrows through Facebook. We hope the government will lift the ban on Facebook as early as possible.
