"Mature" Dialogues Anyone?

Quote from NST:

• Gerakan president Datuk Seri Dr Lim Keng Yaik said today that a "national dialogue initiative centre" would be beneficial to address pressing sensitive issues such as economic, racial and religious affairs.
• Because of their sensitive nature, these dialogues can be held behind closed doors
• participation of politicians, non-governmental organisations and academicians of various backgrounds and communities
• They can be carried out in a matured, intellectual manner, free of unnecessary emotion
• suggested inviting famous personalities such as Nobel Prize winners
• good intellectual exercise and it can promote inter-racial harmony

I post the following questions to the organizer of such event:

1. Who is to define what are sensitive issues and what are not?
2. Will FRU personnel be rushing into the said "dialogue" and arresting every participant under ISA?
3. Are the participants be liable for prosecution for what they said in the meeting or just like in the Parliament where MPs can shout anything without worry of being charged in court?
4. If such events are held behind closed-doors, what are the benefits of such event being held if at all? (those involved might just be having a high-tea behind those doors)
5. What if those Nobel Prize winners (assuming any of them are willing to come) were to be arrested under ISA?
6. Is the content of such meeting or discussion be a reference point for deciding national policy in the future?
7. Is anyone going cover the "dialogue" so that the public are made known of what is going on behind those "bullet and sound-proof doors"?
8. How are we going to achieve inter-racial harmony when only a few people are involved in the dialogue behind closed doors?
