[Louie Kwan]

I would like to create a user with only read privilege, something like
"SELECT ANY TABLE"...
Any pointer or help is appreciated.

If 7.3 or later you can do this. You have to be careful about what access
you give them. In particular when you give them usage access to a database,
the default access to the public schema allows them to create objects.
Read through the documentation on grant and be aware of what the defaults
are for database, schema and function access.
