Of all peaceful rallies, peaceful protests, peaceful
assemblies and gatherings I’ve attended, I always keep in mind that I might be
thrown into the police truck and I must not fear of it as I know what I believe in. It
crossed my mind to be arrested one day, just because the government doesn’t like
people who have a different point of view than them. Close friends even have a
thought that one day I will sure be locked up and enjoy ‘nasi kari’ behind the
cells. Although sometimes I chicken out, but until this moment, I still open up
my heart and mind for the possibility to
feel the moment of being arrested wrongfully for the cause I’m fighting for. In
Malaysia, everything is possible. Because we simply can.
Malaysia Boleh!
The black can be white and the white can be black.
Yang putih boleh dihitamkan, yang hitam boleh diputihkan.
Today nothing saddened me the most than knowing a friend
of mine, a junior of mine got arrested in the recent Bersih 3.0
rally.
WHY! She did nothing wrong. She’s a lady. She was harmless.
She was weaponless. She was helping those injured. She’s a Malaysian.
You, who are reading this, before you start condemning
and criticizing, what have you done to make your surrounding better for the
people?
I know the taste, smell and sound of tear gas and water
cannon being shot. I felt it.
I was lucky to escaped from the bashing of Bersih 3.0.
I am so angry for the unfairness and violence the
government has done to its people.
I am angry that good people being victimized but the bad
guys are on the loose.
I am angry a friend got arrested before I do.
I am angry for treated like a foreigner in my own
country.
I am angry because the government has failed us.
I love this country too..
As I believe, there is still hope. There's still better tomorrow.
As I believe, there is still hope. There's still better tomorrow.
