An absolute overkill is going on in trying to make everybody scared of demo's.
Jozef Goebels propaganda stations RTM 1 and 2 constantly air irritating blocks in order to show demo's that are running violent (the pictures taken from Pakistan!! Mind you)
Was the Bersih rally or the Hindraf rally violent? No absolutely NOT.
As far as the Hindraf rally is concerned, whether you agree or not to Hindraf, at least they highlighted again the conditions in which still many Indians are living in many plantations.
The get salaries which are below par, and the government refuses a minimum pay, because than they cannot suck out the cheap foreign labour anymore.
Here near my place, go to Bedong and see some of the 'housing estates' of Indians.
Or go Cameron Highlands and see some there, they do NOT fit in this century anymore!
They are unhuman.
Hindraf at least brought this up, but the government in Malaysia is never wrong, everything they do is unfallable and no-one can be criticized.
Demo's without permit are only allowed for UMNO members.
Opposition will never get a permit for a demo.
This government should learn that peaceful demo's are there to draw attention to certain facts that seem to be overlooked by the administration.
And like the last 2 rallies, 10th of thousands of people came to KL for it, so all the food-chains and restaurants must have had field days!
