Does someone have to die first before Najib says something?

Useless PM! No Leadership! Does he condone political violence or not?

19 May 2012 - Slipping out of national consciousness since last year’s by-election, the small town of Merlimau, Malacca was thrust back into the limelight last Saturday following a fracas where opposition assemblypersons were attacked with stones and eggs.

According to Malacca PAS commissioner Adly Zahari, the flashpoint was when an Indian woman started speaking at the high-tea event, triggering a “gatecrash” attempt by protesters.

The roughly 200 people, mostly youths, protested against the presence of Bersih co-chairperson Ambiga Sreneevasan at Taman Seri Merlimau for a high-tea event organised by the local PAS Supporters Club.

21 May 2012 -  A Pakatan Rakyat ceramah in a community hall in Pekan Bangi, Selangor was disrupted on Monday night by a group of alleged stone-throwing thugs.

Serdang MP Teo Nie Ching (right) said in a press release that the incident happened at about 11pm when PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu took the stage.

Teo, who was among the speakers at the event, said that a group of about 30 people started pelting stones and taunting the security detail at the event.

This resulted in the windows of one vehicle being damaged.

Contacted for details, Serdang PAS division deputy chief Mazwan Johar said there were no injuries.

He noted that apart from the car, other casualties included a big banner for the event and two PAS flags which were burnt.


24 May 2012 - Stones and eggs were again thrown at a Pakatan Rakyat ceramah, causing one senior citizen to suffer injuries to the head.

The man was bleeding from his head and barely conscious when taken away to seek medical attention.

The incident happened at about 11pm, when PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim was speaking at a ceramah at Apartment Pantai Permai, Kuala Lumpur, which is within the PKR-held constituency of Lembah Pantai.

According to eyewitnesses, the projectile was hurled into the crowd from an Umno function at the Pantai Dalam Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) quarters next door.

This happened about 30 minutes after the power supply for the event was cut, allegedly sabotaged, but hastily restored with some tape.

Despite the disruptions, the ceramah was able to proceed as participants remained calm and allowed Anwar to finish his speech.
Fist-sized flying brick
Another projectile victims was 12-year-old Nurul Balqis, who was struck by a fist-sized flying brick on her wrist.

Her mother Adita Ketek told reporters that the doctor who inspected her arm had asked her to seek further medical inspection because her wrist might be broken.
Following the ugly incidents, a group of PKR supporters marched towards some 200 Umno supporters, who are no more than 20 meters away, while police rushed in to intervene.

However, with only a brick-and-mortar fence separating the opposing groups, the PKR supporters continued to be pelted with stones and water bottles for some time.

Earlier, at about 9pm, some 80 people in red shirts gathered outside the PKR ceramah venue and chanted "Tibai (whack)", which is the acronym of a newly formed anti-Anwar group.

 25 May 2012 - Vandals struck at an opposition ceramah again, this time at an event featuring former Perak MB Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin in Kuals Kangsar, at which 11 cars were splashed with blue paint.

The Bukit Gantang MP said he was addressing an audience of about 400 at a PAS ceramah in Kampung Sayong Lembah in Kuala Kangsar yesterday when he received a slip of paper informing him of the incident.

“I was told that the cars were splashed with blue paint. The paint was splashed mostly on the headlights,” Nizar (left) told Malaysiakini when contacted.

The organisers and the owners of the vehicles have lodged police reports on the matter, he said.

One of the organisers, who did not want to be named, said prior to that paint spalshing, a small group of motorcyclists disrupted the ceramah.

“An Umno ceramah was also going, on about 200m from our venue. Just before Nizar arrived, some of those from Umno were revving their motorcycle engines,” said the Kuala Kangsar PAS member.

“Just before the ceramah started about 9pm, they were stopping people on the way there and asking if they were attending the Umno ceramah or PAS’,” he added.

He claimed that the Umno members were “trying to provoke” those who were coming to the PAS ceramah.

 25 May 2012 - Pakatan leaders moved on to the second and last ceramah of the night in Pasir Gudang - about 90 minutes west of Pengerang - three vehicles suddenly appeared on the highway and attempted to bump Anwar's car off the road, claimed Tian Chua.

"A few cars tried to cut off Anwar's vehicle and created a dangerous situation, our vehicles had to move forward to help him," he said.

Asked if this was a mere coincidence, Tian Chua (right) replied: "It was deliberate, the cars deliberately tried to block him (Anwar) off, this was a clear attempt to intimidate us."

 31 May 2012 - Selangor DAP state committee member V Ganapathirao and his brother Raidu, who are leading the Hindraf splinter group Malaysian Indian Voice (MIV), suffered bone fractures after three BN supporters assaulted them in Klang last night.

Ganapathirao told Malaysiakini this morning that the assailants armed with a car steering lock and metal objects attacked the duo at a road junction at Taman Mutiara.

Resulting from the 10-minute attack, Ganapathirao (centre in photo, with Papparaidu at right) suffered a nasal bone fracture, swollen jaw and several bruises while Raidu's right arm was broken and shoulder dislocated.
The duo have been admitted into a hospital in Klang. Ganapathirao will be discharged later today.
Ganapathirao, a former senior Hindraf leader once detained under the Internal Security Act, claimed the assailants were unhappy with him and Raidu (below) for organising the MIV rally last Sunday that attracted 1,000 Indians to voice their support for Pakatan Rakyat.
“There were only two of us last night. We were attending a funeral at Taman Mutiara, Jalan Meru. We met the three attackers who were chatting at the middle the road some 50m away from the house.

“I know one of them because he had approached me two years ago asking me to join BN.
"He said we are now ‘taiko’ (big brother) after organising the MIV rally. I replied that they are cheats and traitors.

“I tried to walk away but one of them, armed with a car steering lock, hit me first.
"My elder brother tried to protect me but was attacked by the other two. My nasal bone was broken, my glasses fell, and my nose was bleeding until my clothes were all red.

“There were continuous punches and kicks. They attacked us with metal rods and a plastic chair,” Ganapathirao claimed.

The trio also broke the windscreen of his car before leaving the scene in a car.


ALL THESE VIOLENCE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE POLICE!
Will there be justice for these people?
 Will our PM speak up against these violence?
Why not?

Reflection of BERSIH 3.0

What are the things to remember about BERSIH 3.0?

1. Hishammuddin is a BIG FAT LIAR!

Inspector-General of Police Ismail Omar has clarified that confiscating memory cards and cameras belonging to journalists is not part of the police standard operating procedure (SOP).
This contradicts Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein’s claim that the seizure of journalists’ equipment while covering Saturday’s Bersih 3.0 rally was part of police SOP.

"There is no such thing. We act in accordance with the law," Ismail replied curtly when pressed on the matter at a press conference at the police headquarters at Bukit Aman.

Yesterday, Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein said that the camera and memory cards belonging to journalists were seized as part of the SOP.

2. Police beating up Journalist/Photographer and stealing their memory card

 - From Malaysiakini

 - From Al Jazeera 

 

Al Jazeera cameraman Ray Jones was punched on the head while Fawcett was grabbed by police who were stopping them from filming other officers assaulting the protestors.

- Merdeka Review reporter Chen Shaua Fui

- Malay Mail cameraman, Muhammad Arif Kartono

- Even Zan Azlee a freelance journalist who has been to Afghanistan (right), Lebanon and South Thailand to shoot documentaries said that he had never felt as intimidated as he was at Bersih 3.0 in Kuala Lumpur last Saturday.

Zan figured something was amiss by early evening when he noticed that many police officers had taken off their name tags. And then he saw gangs of them beating up protestors.

He talks about how journalists got assaulted for shooting pictures and videos of police brutality. He himself was manhandled, hauled in and briefly detained by the police.

After he was released, as he walking towards his car, Zan noticed a number of people lying unconscious on the street as ambulances came to pick them up one by one.

3. Worse Police Brutality compared to BERSIH 2.0

4. ASTRO censorship of BBC and Al Jazeera

Satellite TV network Astro has admitted to censoring the BBC news report on the Bersih 3.0 rally it aired last Saturday "to comply with the national content regulations".

In a statement emailed to Malaysiakini from Al Jazeera English's head office in Doha, Qatar, the network said Astro has to date not informed them about the possible cuts made to its news programmes.

"Our news report was a factual account of events that day, and intrusion in our editorial process is unwarranted. We have not been censored in this way by another distribution platform anywhere in the world," it said




5. Traffic Police officer pulling his gun on civilians! 


An eyewitness has come forward to reveal that a traffic police officer had pulled out his gun and aimed it at a protester during Bersih 3.0 last Saturday.

According to KL Lai, the police officer pointed his gun at a protester at Jalan Esfahan after another officer crashed his patrol car into protesters.

“I saw a protester freeze and put his hands up. The traffic police officer had his back on me.









This is what our Police force has come down to thanks to Hishammuddin!!


We need to be ready for Bersih 4.0 to save our country!!!!

Mahathir was right!

UMNO leaders are all arrogant, insensitive idiots!

A perfect example of this is Higher Education Minister Khaled Nordin.

His “arrogant” tweet reaction to them (Demonstrators of PTPTN at Dataran Merdeka) being attacked by a mob last night has really pissed of a lot of students!

This morning, Khaled tweeted: “No one asked them to camp out at Dataran Merdeka. When something happens, don’t go asking for sympathy”.

Instead of condemning the attacked and asking the Police to make sure the perpetrators are arrested, he had to give such a sarcastic and arrogant statement. How is this idiot our Minister of Higher Education?!?

Not to be outdone, Umno information chief Ahmad Maslan has rubbished attempts to link UMNO to the thugs who attacked students protestors in Dataran Merdeka last night.

"If there is a car tyre punctured by the side of the road, that is Umno's fault. If there is a motorcyle punctured, that is also Umno's fault.

“If there is a bicycle tyre punctured on a deserted road in the middle of the forest, that too is Umno's fault," sniped the deputy minister.

Pressed further on eyewitnesses claims that the attackers were indeed Umno linked thugs and of apparent police inaction against the perpetrators, Ahmad brushed the allegations aside.

"I don't know, I was asleep last night. People sleep at home, not in the middle of a field," he told reporters at the Parliament lobby.

AGAIN another UMNO leader showing how to be arrogant and scarcastic instead of showing interest in justice or concern about the well being of the Malaysian youth!

How can these people be the leaders of our country?!

And so that everyone in UMNO are on the same page,

Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein today called on the public to be wary of claims that the student protesters camping out at Dataran Merdeka were attacked.

Falling short of condemning such attacks, he said such allegations can be spread through mobile text messages and online media to stoke public anger.

“There have been such cases where allegations of such nature have been used...to raise emotions, be it in the areas of race, religion and now involving students,” he said.

He added that it is important to differentiate between real and fake allegations, also advising the public not to react.

“Let the necessary agencies investigate, and at the moment the one who has control... of Dataran Merdeka is the Kuala Lumpur City Council (DBKL) and I don’t see it as a major security issue,” he said.

FOR A Home minister he has shown that he has absolutely no idea on how to do his job!

His statement shows lack of urgency or even an ounce of concern for those hurt by the attacks!

And as expected (MCA being good lap dogs for UMNO), MCA Youth education bureau chairperson Chong Sin Woon hoped that the opposition would discourage the public from holding frequent demonstrations.

“(We) hope the opposition now realises that in their feverish calls to Malaysians to participate in one demonstration after another be it in Malaysia or globally, reactions from their detractors may arise.

I think this idiot Chong should go and live in North Korea as he obviously do not understand or appreciate the value of living in a democratic country where people are free to voice their stand without the fear of being beaten by those who do not agree with their believes!

But I guess you can't blame him! As an MCA leader he must be use to just accepting what UMNO say without voicing out their disagreement for fear of being beaten up!!

IDIOTS!! We need to change the government!

What is the reason for Bersih 3.0? Kim Quek explains clearly!

By Kim Quek

COMMENT It is now confirmed - the parliamentary select committee (PSC) on electoral reform report is a scam to hoodwink Malaysians into thinking that the Barisan Nasional (BN) government is finally restoring democratic election.

While nothing concrete has been achieved to ensure the cleansing of the "phantom" infested electoral roll and the elimination of rampant corruption and abuse of power that has become the trademark of Malaysian elections, the main stream media has painted the town red with false propaganda that the PSC report is a reform agenda that will make any democracy proud.

Just look at The Starnewspaper of April 4. The entire front page was splashed with goodies from the PSC, headlined ‘Hooray for voters’.

Some of the prominently displayed items were: ‘Allowing citizens to vote by post or at Malaysian missions’, ‘Creating a caretaker government after the dissolution’, ‘Continuous cleaning of the electoral roll’, ‘EC to have its own budget and be answerable to Parliament’, ‘EC to be restructured to enforce election laws’, ‘Provide allocations to political parties and candidates based on the number of seats and number of votes obtained’, and ‘Have a balanced delineation election constituencies’.

Wah! Isn’t it wonderful. From now on, Malaysians can finally raise their heads to claim that they have a practicing democracy!

But, rejoice not. This PSC report is not a bearer of fruits but a messenger of false hopes.

The PSC report’s 22 recommendations are only a series of expressions of hope that the Election Commission (EC) will do this or that.

Knowing the deeply political partisanship of EC and its unashamedly pro-BN stance to resist reform, what hope is there anything meaningful will be done to alleviate the nightmare of Malaysians of another dirty election ahead - by all counts, the worst?

There was not a word in the report on the numerous cases of fraud uncovered in the electoral roll or on the blatant open bribery and abuse of power that have gone from bad to worse from one by-election to another since the 2008 general election.

Hypocritical participation

Without acknowledging and probing the existing flaws how can there be any remedy?

There was no concrete measure proposed or firm commitment made by any quarter in the BN regime that the serious flaws that have made a mockery of our election will be rectified before the next election.

In fact, the hypocritical participation of EC in the PSC reform effort is glaringly demonstrated through the continuing cheating in the electoral roll that was going on out right during the working sessions of the PSC.

This was exposed during the press conference of Bersih 2.0 announcing its impending mass demonstration on April 28.

At the press conference on April 4, two academicians with authoritative research on Malaysian elections revealed numerous cases of ongoing fraud in the electoral roll.

Wong Chin Huat (left) demonstrated four methods adopted by fraudsters to “clone” voters through variation of one or more of personal data like names, old and new identity card numbers, addresses and dates of birth.

Ong Kian Ming revealed irregularities in the postal voter roll that showed double registration and unqualified postal voters among the security personnel. These instances were described as only the “tip of the iceberg”.

From numerous previous revelations, it is now an established fact that our electoral roll is heavily infested with “phantom voters” - either through manipulation of the electoral roll or through illegal granting of citizenship to foreigners (which is particularly rampant in Sabah as proven in court).

It is therefore imperative and of utmost urgency that an independent body be commissioned to comprehensively audit both the electoral roll and the citizenship registry to flush out these “phantoms”.

But there was nothing in the PSC report to even remotely suggest that this cleansing process will proceed forthwith.

It is ironical that the PSC which is dominated by BN, instead of scrapping the notorious postal voting system as strongly demanded by reformists, has further expanded its scope.

This postal voting is a discredited system that has been profusely abused to give consistently more than 90 percent electoral support to the ruling BN.

Illegitimate advantage

Originally meant for the soldiers and police, it will now be extended to cover media workers and EC personnel, the latter, according to reports, has alarmingly increased from 140,000 to 240,000 personnel.

This decision by PSC which quickly acted upon by EC to gazette the new postal voters will no doubt add a major illegitimate advantage to BN in the coming polls.

Another major injustice that has rendered our election meaningless is BN’s stranglehold on the mass media (save the Internet), which while serving BN’s parochial political interests in ordinary times, is turned into full blast propaganda machines in election time to falsely glorify BN while running down or blacking out news of its opponents.

Electoral democracy being a game of perception, the existence of such a grotesquely lop-sided information dissemination system makes a total mockery of our democracy, not to mention putting BN’s opponents in grave disadvantage.

In recognition of reformists’ earnest requests for free and fair media coverage, PSC has, however, only given its lip service.

In recommendation No.9, PSC merely says it has “taken note” of the Information Ministry’s “readiness” to grant fair media access to all parties and candidates in the poll.

PSC further “recommends” that the EC take note of Article 115(2) of the federal constitution which stipulates that other authorities shall on request assist EC to discharge its duties as may be practicable.

If fair reporting is a serious undertaking by BN, why didn’t the ministry give a solemn pledge to honour this “readiness” instead of only the EC “taking note”?

Will this “note” taken by the EC lead to fair media coverage? Knowing the disposition of EC and BN, your guess is as good as mine.

It should be apparent by now that no real reform will come while BN is in power, for any reform - particularly electoral reform - would mean the reduction of the illegitimate advantage enjoyed by them in the contest of political power.

And the present fake reform as exemplified by the setting up of this PSC was only a grudging concession thought of by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to recover some of the electoral support lost during the ill-advised crackdown on the Bersih 2.0 rally on July 9, 2011.

From that point of view, Bersih 2.0’s prompt call for another mass rally is a wise move. For only in the convincing show of strength could BN see the necessity to make some reforms, however disinclined it may feel towards them.

Police arrest the good people while voilent people runs free!

As the police dragnet for Bersih 2.0 supporters widens, more have been arrested, including lawmakers.

According to human rights NGO Suaram, Senator S Ramakrishnan (right) was arrested last night for 'promoting' Bersih 2.0 at a DAP dinner in Banting.

“At the dinner, I spoke at length about the unfairness in the elections like the gerrymandering and the political corruption. So I asked the people to support Bersih in whatever way they can,” he told Malaysiakini when contacted.

He added that about five policemen surrounded him and arrested him just as he was about to get into his car after leaving the function at about 9.30pm, citing that he was 'inciting people to participate in an illegal assembly'.

He said that he was also asked if he knew who the organisers were and whether he was paid to 'instigate'.

“I just kept mum and exercised my right to only answer it in court,” he said.

Telok Datuk assemblyperson from DAP Philip Tan (left) was also arrested yesterday evening for wearing the Bersih 2.0 T-shirt at the same function.

They were released after having their statements taken at the Kuala Langat district police headquarters several hours later.

According to the Suaram website, since last Wednesday 81 people have been arbitrarily arrested and detained at various locations in the country.

A group of Umno Youth members gathered in front of their arch nemesis PKR's headquarters in Petaling Jaya late last night (27 June) in a noisy demonstration, threatening to burn down the building.

About 300 people, according to PKR estimates, had converged on motorcycles and demanded that PKR withdraws its support from the Bersih 2.0 march on July 9.

PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution, who rushed to the HQ after being alerted by party members, said he arrived at about 11pm and observed the demonstration from a distance.

"How do I know they are Umno members? First of all, they were carrying Umno flags and they were wearing their red 'Patriot' T-shirts,” he told Malaysiakini.

“I could also see (Umno Youth exco Lokman Adam) and (former Perkasa Youth chief Arman Azha Abu Hanifah) leading the group."

Incendiary speeches on tape

Saifuddin (right) also said that when he got there with several party members, they recorded the fiery speeches made by Lokman to the Umno Youth crowd.

"He said that he wants to burn down the PKR HQ. He can deny it all he wants, but we have the recording," he said.

PKR Youth deputy information chief Rozan Azen Mat Rasip, who was also there, confirmed that Lokman had explicitly threatened to burn down the headquarters if the party participates in the July 9 rally.

"He also threatened (PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim) and (Bersih 2.0 steering committee chairperson) S Ambiga for supporting the rally," he said, adding that about 50 PKR Youth members were there to monitor the demonstration.

According to Rozan (left), the Umno Youth group gathered in two locations - at a petrol station in Shah Alam and at the Batu Tiga toll plaza on the Federal Highway - before making their way to the PKR HQ in Tropicana. This was based on information in pro-Umno blogs.

He lodged a police report at the Tropicana police station, just a few doors down the road from the HQ, at about 11.40pm, almost immediately after the crowd had dispersed.

No arrests made

Rozan said he saw about 20 heavily-armed police officers on standby at the protest although no arrest were made.

"That's why we're puzzled," he said, urging the police to investigate the case under criminal intimidation.

Though Bersih 2.0 - which stands for the Coalition of Free and Fair Elections - claims to be a politically non-partisan group, PKR is expected to mobilise tens of thousands of its members from around the country for the massive rally.

In calling for electoral reforms, Bersih 2.0 intends to hand over a petition to Istana Negara detailing their eight demands before the next general election.

However, Umno Youth has said that it will also organise a counter-rally on the same day, calling it the 'Patriot' rally, in support of the current electoral system.

Movement chief Khairy Jamaluddin had previously said that their objective is to defy Bersih 2.0, as well as to support engagement with the Election Commission.

Malay rights NGO Perkasa has vowed to hold a counter-rally in a bid to stop the Bersih rally.

Ibrahim Ali speaks his mind!

And gets away with it without fear of getting arrested at all.

How nice would it be if all Malaysian are able to speak their mind freely without the fear of being arrested under ISA or be charge for Sedition!

But why do ordinary Malaysian have this fear in them? Is it because we have seen people like Theresa Kok and the Sin Chew reporter Tan Hoon Cheng getting arrested under Section 73 (1) of the ISA in 2008. For just doing their job!

Or could it be because (in 2009) DAP chairman Karpal Singh was charged under the Sedition Act for having expressed the intention to take the ruler of Perak to court?

How does those "sins" compare to Ibrahim Ali who had threaten Christians nationwide with a holy war against any move to usurp Islam with a Christian state.

In that incident he was neither charge or sent to jail under ISA.

I guess you can't blame him for being bolder to now threaten Chinese nationwide with violence!

"Never in the history of Malaysia, since independence, have such threats been made so openly"

Yet do we expect any action to be taken against Ibrahim Ali?

The answer is surely a big NO!!

But Why??? How can Ibrahim Ali and his Perkasa get away with this without any action from the Police or government?

See how violent they are here!

During the launch of Perkasa's 'Peace March' yesterday, members of the Malay rights pressure group took to burning and stomping on pictures of Bersih chairperson Ambiga Sreenevasan, a former Bar Council president.

Ibrahim then threatened that chaos would ensue if the rally for electoral reform is not cancelled.

“Imagine, ladies and gentlemen, if the Bersih rally is not called off and they go ahead with it - if they don't cancel it on July 8 or 9 - I believe the Chinese community, many of them, will have to stock up on food at home. Anything can happen on that day."

Perkasa has called for a counter-rally dubbed 'Peace March' on July 9, while Umno Youth also plans to hold a simultaneous rally to defend the current electoral system.

But the electoral system is very screw up! Here is prove!

So why is defending it?!? If you read the article above about the prove of our screwed up electoral system, you will realize very quickly how the screwed up system is benefiting UMNO!!

So why is Ibrahim Ali helping UMNO?!?

I leave you to come to your own conclusion!

I hope all Malaysian will come out in full force to support the Bersih rally!

This is for the sake of Malaysia!!

It is the only way we can eventually bring Ibrahim to justice!

BMC residents lose 'brutality' suit against police!

The sessions court in Bandar Baru Bangi has dismissed a civil suit (with cost) against the federal government and the police force over alleged brutality in dispersing a gathering protesting the Grand Saga Highway in 2007.

Lawyer Lim Lip Eng, representing the three plaintiffs, said judge Mohammed Mokhzani Mokhtar gave three reasons in dismissing the case.

"He said this was an illegal assembly; that the protesters had failed to disperse when ordered; and that police had applied reasonable force to disperse and arrest those concerned," said Lim.

The finding was delivered in a two-minute oral judgment this morning. The judge also awarded costs to the respondents, but the quantum is yet to be decided.

While declining to comment directly on the ruling, Lim pointed out that no one had been charged with the purported 'illegal gathering'.

"I am disappointed that, despite video evidence being tendered showing the police brutally assaulting us, punching and kicking repeatedly, the judge still ruled in the government's favour," he said.

"We have one month to appeal. I shall discuss this with the plaintiffs and we will inform the press if we decide to appeal."

The civil suit, filed in May 2007, named the inspector-general of police, Kajang police chief Rosli Mohd Nizam, policeman Azman Atan, the government and others on duty as respondents.

In the incident on Jan 21, 2007, some 40 residents and activists had gathered to protest against the Grand Saga Highway concessionaire for blocking off a slip road into their community, thereby forcing residents to enter and exit the area by way of the new toll highway.

The plaintiffs alleged they had been injured in the melee that ensued when police rushed at them ahead of the time given for them to disperse.

'No regrets'

Mahkota Cheras Free Access Road Action Committee president Tan Boon Hwa, who is also a plaintiff, told a press conference at the court complex that the protesters had not been given enough time to disperse.

Another plaintiff, Ho Chee Loong, agreed: “I am disappointed with the decision, and I say citizens must continue to stand up for their rights.”

The third plaintiff was his brother, Chee Hui.

Lim said despite the court decision, his clients did not regret their action as their action had ensured that the slip road remained open up to today.

Police arrested 21 protesters in two places along the Grand Saga Highway, which links Kuala Lumpur with Kajang, during the incident.

The demonstration coincided with the third in a series of protests organised by Protes - a coalition of opposition parties, civil society groups, trade unions and student groups - against higher toll charges at five Klang Valley highways with effect from Jan 1 that year.

Big demonstration in KL! No arrest, no water cannons! Wow! Is the govt becoming more tolerant?

NOPE! Sorry it is just UMNO that's why!

Hundreds of demonstrators massed outside the Australian High Commission today to protest against criticism of opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim's sodomy trial.

Was there a permit for this?
Why don't they do it in the stadium?
Does this not affect the businesses around the area?
Why was there no RELA there?
No Police giving warning to disperse?

Is this Najib's idea of 1 Malaysia?

Malay-Muslim protesters spit in Najib's Face! Will any action be taken against them?

A group of 50 Malay-Muslim protesters from Section 23 , Shah Alam showed just what they think of Najib's 1 Malaysia concept!

The residents gathered after the Friday prayers, placed the a cow head outside the gates of the Selangor state secretariat building. (in protest against the relocation of a Hindu temple to Section 23)

Where is Xavier? This head is for him," shouted one of the protesters in reference to Selangor executive councillor Dr Xavier Jeyakumar who is in charge of non-Muslim affairs in the state.

The protesters had marched some 300m from the state mosque to the state secretariat building.

Before dispersing, several protesters spat and stomped on the cow's head.

Addressing the crowd, Section 23 action committee deputy chair Ibrahim Sabri said: "If there is blood, you (the state government) will be responsible if you are adamant about building the temple."

"This is a warning. Relocate the temple to Section 22. This cow is a present to the state government. This is a gift from us," he added.


Action Committee chair Mahyuddin Manaf (pic below) warned that the state government must give in or the residents would retaliate. "We will not budge one inch, even if lives are lost or blood is made to flow..."

Now how come the police that were there did not stop these people or arrest anybody??

Can this not be classified into ISA or even sedition?
It is not like the police dunno who they are?!?

See we have pictures of them!!

So I wonder what will Najib do with this spit in his face?

So much for his 1 Malaysia concept!!

Selamat Hari Merdeka everyone!!

Why do Malaysians march?

This is a good article from the Sun!
