Some Rocking Pics from Bersih 2.0, 9th July 2011

 A portion of the protestors

 
National Laureate A. Samad Said

"THIIIS IS MAH COUNTRYYYY!!"

"HAHAHA...send in the boys.."


'The Boys'









Like a boss

In an online video coverage, this guy then proceed to imitate the 
pose of a dog pissing in front of the police (implying police='obedient' dogs)

-"Patriot wont allow you to destroy this land, O Ber"shit"-
The 'Patriots'-you can tell their level of mentality with that lame wordplay




2 friends praying in the middle of the street. It is said all the nearby mosques
were blocked.




This one is when the police attacked(water cannon/tear gas) protestors taking
refugee in the nearby private hospitals compound. Police attack, in a 
hospital..wtf man. 

                                        


  However my favorite set of images are of this one old Chinese lady called Anne:

Anne, 65, from Setapak, took a bus ride down to KL, ALONE, in support of the rally. She was stopped 4 times, being asked her IC, and questioned by the police on why she's wearing yellow. "why can't I wear yellow?" was her reply. She didn't know what time the rally was scheduled to start, she didn't know where, she has no one with her; all she knew was to get down to KL, and stand for what she believes in. Anne teaches English in government schools for about 35 years (if i remember correctly). but her passion is really singing and dancing; and what she values most in her life now is freedom.







On that day she had been hit by the tear gas 4 times
and blue colored chemical water once..


Anne has rallied in Bersih 2007. She was disappointed as to why no one else was wearing yellow that day. we said chill lah.. that's cuz if we do, we'd be stopped by the cops even before we get the chance to enter KL. "it's so sad.. it's so sad that the police are treating our rakyats like these." "When you come to rallies, there's a spirit of unity... something i cannot describe... when everyone is united for a cause. you don't even get this sort of unity in church."

The first thing she asked when she sat on our table, "what are you guys doing here?"

She left me with a question that still resides in my heart. now may i impose on you to think about it. "Why do we have to feel so scared (and threatened) in our own home land.. and by own countrymen?"

*****************

"When the crowds were expelled by FRU with water cannons and tear gas, the crowds scattered around. Someone advice Madam Anne to run for her life, but she said:

" All I want is just a peaceful petition,why wouldn't anyone listen? We cannot run away,if we run, how could we even walk on our future path?"

 Meanwhile, the real 'First Lady' of Malaysia had just bought a pretty new ring worth RM 24.4 million 
using, I assume, the taxpayers money.
Her body is 4 times bigger than Anne,
but I bet her heart is 10 times smaller.
And I ain't even tainting my blog with posting her picture

Needless to say, history was written that day.
