Note: Don’t forget the solidarity vigil tonight. Stay peaceful, and be calm in the face of any provocateurs.
Date:
13 September 2008
Place:
Bukit Aman Police HQ Entrance
Time:
8.30 pm

Malaysia is facing a malicious attempt at false provocation.

Clearly, the selectiveness of the ISA arrests is an insidious and misleading attempt to create resentment among particular communities. Why else arrest the messenger but not the message maker, or a politician proven to be only falsely accused?

Perhaps it is hoped that impassioned and racially tinged sentiments will be expressed in the coming days, escalating to even more impassioned racial reactions. This in turn may lay the ground for emergency rule, and for all the suspension of civil liberties and human rights that follow.

What the powers that be have forgotten however, is that Malaysia is better than that.

On March 8th, Malaysians refused to vote purely on racial lines and instead chose their leaders based on issues that affect us all as a united Malaysian nation.

This time, once again, we will not fall for the trap that is racial fear mongering. We will not be pawns in the political manoeuvrings of the ever crumbling ruling party. We will not be trapped in racial polemics, or ever again draw the bitter lines of conflict along the lines of racial division.

MCA, Gerakan, SAPP, SUPP and the rest of mosquito parties. You have in your power now to topple this undemocratic and racist government. Show that you have the rakyat's welfare at heart by walking out of the BN on the 16h September. You don't have to cross over to the opposition. Just join them to form a coalition government. The rakyat would forgive you for your past sins and thank you for your stand. Do it now or go into oblivion.

This Scribe wants to know why no action was taken against Ahmad Ismail, Azhar Ibrahim, Khir Toyo, Awang Selamat, Utusan Malaysia, TV3 (Buletin Utama). Is it because of Hak Istimewa Orang Umno (Umno Special Rights)? Why is MCA, Gerakan and all the non Malay BN component parties still part of racist BN. Show you are not hypocrites, stand by the Rakyat, quit racist BN en masse and join Pakatan Rakyat now!

People like Ong Ka Ting, Koh Tsu Koon, Samy Veloo and the other non Malay BN Component party leaders must have the political will and guts to leave BN now. It is no point and makes no sense to condemn the BN regime when you are part of it. The Rakyat (People) demands that you leave the BN now or drop the charade altogether....More http://*********.********.com

HI Malaysians:

Any form of GATHERING now is a BAD idea. It is a piece of cake to plant a provocateur! So, for God's sake, call it off. Solidarity is the 16th. Sept.

Don't do anything silly to de-rail it. Please go home watch TV & Blog to followup on issues. Trust DSAI and his gang to get things done! Commonsense.

100% agree with nylong. Do not give the UMNO scumbags a reason to implement emergency law. Vigil or no vigil wont change a thing on how these imbeciles think, a good example is just look at Ahmad Ismail.
Be patient Sep 16 is just around the corner, when Pakatan Rakyat take over, these ISA detainee will automatically be released. Right now the most important thing is to not let these scumbags any reason declare DARURAT

Bad idea to assemble outside a police station. Better to stay home. Stay calm. Don't give the police any reason to arrest more people.

I Agree with Loosecanon, MCA, Gerakan and other smaller BN component parties who really care about their Rakyat should leave BN now or risk political irrelevance.

It has been a fact that all the BN Component parties has been put there so that UMNO can remain in power and no one else has a say. This has been happening for so many decades now. I would not have recomended a departure of these parties from BN earlier as they will loose their previllege and will have no impact. This now is an opportune time for you to save your political careers.

Leave BN.
Show you care for your Rakyat.
Show you care for Justice and not only for your pockets.
Give yourself a chance to beging to have Political Relvance again.

Even though the party does not join Pakatan Rakyat your political party will have political relevance once more.

If you must unite with others and assemble somewhere, then go with friends to a place of prayer.
Pray for peace in Malaysia.
Pray for Malaysians detained under ISA, and for their families.
Pray for a peaceful change in government.

But don’t gather outside a police station!

Comrades,

We should create a wave of candle vigils around whole of Malaysia starting tonight at Bukit Aman, KL & Dewan Sri Pinang in Penang. This is the time to remind those idiots that March 8th was achieved out of solidarity for a new beginning. Peace is the way to go and we should get the world to notice that we, the new Malaysia, are people of peace !!!

Now that there is news that the gov is going to release ISA detainees soon, I feel it is no point to risk standing in front of bukit aman waiting for trouble to happen! There is nothing you can do except court trouble. I am sure the detained will forgive us, we will pray for their safety at home. Its safest to stay at home and watch the blogs and the news to be on the safe side!

With this MAD GOV ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN! So people....PLEASE STAY OFF THE STREETS AND STAY SAFE.

Our country enters the phase of naked display of aggression. This happens when a regime is morally bankrupt and it will use immoral means to hold on to power. We might be weak but we still have the power of prayer and silent witnessing. After sunset mass this evening, 13th sept, there will be silent adoration until tomorrow morning at St Francis Xaviers church @ Kangar, Perlis.

The unjust may try to break our bones but they can't break our spirit. Please distribute this to all peace loving Malaysians and people of goodwill.

Will an opposition MP nominate RPK for the Nobel Peace prize? The Nobel Peace prize rules say that a lawmaker can nominate a person for the prize. RPK desrves it more than some who have actually won it. A nomination will help to make him safer while in the hands of the authorities, as witnessed the case of Burmese heroine Aung Syi Ki.

According to The Malaysian Insider, the vigil lasted less than 15 minutes. The police ordered the crowd to disperse and put out their candles.
