PRIME Minister Dato Seri Najib Tun Razak cannot be more wrong to claim that the silent majority support the government over the Bersih campaign for clean and fair elections. In fact, the huge majority of people support the Bersih cause for clean, free and fair elections.
Indeed, Bersih has managed to rally ordinary people to a reformist movement without involving political parties. The millions of people who stayed at home and not joined the July 9 Stadium Merdeka rally support the Bersih cause morally and in other ways.
The panicky handling of the Bersih protest march revealed that BN leaders are no longer confident of the peoples’ support. The denial of a permit for a stadium protests after the Prime Minister himself had promised that Bersih should move their street march to a stadium makes one wonder if the Prime Minister is in charge of his government of not.
How can the police and home minister reject all applications of Bersih on the sole ground that Bersih is not a registered society? If Bersih were illegal, then the Prime Minister should not have promised a stadium protest.
If Bersih were illegal, then the authorities should not have asked Bersih to hold their stadium protests in Shah Alam or other stadiums outside Kuala Lumpur. And the Agung has even granted an audience to the Bersih leadership. All these confusions point to a panicky government that is on the verge of collapse.
Undeniably, Bersih did attract a lot of support from participants worldwide.

ReplyDeletebiar rakyat menentukan.
ReplyDeleteSenario politik nampaknya akan mengalami perubahan.
ReplyDeletePRU 13 akan jadi satu 'pertarungan' yang sengit.
ReplyDeleteApapun, tak dinafikan BERSIH telah timbulkan pelabagai reaksi peringkat global. huhuhu
ReplyDeleteMaybe it wasn't a bad idea at all for BERSIH 2.0 to have a demo.
ReplyDeletebiarlah rakyat membuat pilihan mereka pada PRU nanti...
ReplyDeletewithout involving political parties??
ReplyDeletesedarkah YTL apa yang dia cakap..
mungkin YTL tahu siapa yang bagi rm50 kepada kawan2 saya untuk hadir perhimpunan di KK.
jika YTL mentadbir negeri ini, mahukah beliau sekadar melihat pesaing2nya menghasut rakyat untuk berhimpun, berarak, menyusahkan peniaga, mengganggu aktiviti orang awam dan menakutkan pelabur serta pelancong?
ReplyDeleteBenarkah kerajaan menghampiri kejatuhan. Rasanya kerajaan masih kukuh dengan permainan Pembangkang yang cuba menjatuhkan kerajaan.
