We can expect certain quarters with ulterior motives to organise such counter measures to draw attention to race and religion , again and again. I personally feel that in ‘multiracial’ Malaysia we are invariable cursed & condemned to this unhealthy time wasting money losing hypocritical situation of endless jostling and posturing resulting in ultimate national mediocrity’ rather than the earnest pursuit of global competitiveness and the well being of the man in the street and country at large. Notice how all these so-called latest politiking/bickering like small boys over candies in Perak, Selangor etc has yet again exposed our supreme lack of maturity ( or issit the glaring truth of our inner hopeless corrupted selfish agendas )setting us back indefinitely while our awakened neighbours now rise and shine.That sums up the curse of Malaysia…unless there is a Messiah ( like comrade Anwar Ibrahim ) if he is now to be believed.

There’s been some allegations that perhaps a lot of the demonstrators were not from Penang. Any truth in that?

Did you know that most of the “protesters” at Komtar were paid to turn up ?
Rent A Crowd….Hehehehehehe…

With the ex DCM, involved in the rabble rousing furthermore. No arrest, no questioning. What’s maruah? RM80/- per head kow tim.

unfortunately i agree with you 100%. sad, isn’t it, what our country had become to. BN were talking about we are a democratic country as we have election - let the people speak through the ballot box. now that we did, they were not satisfied. yes, this protest won’t be the last. we will sure get to see ‘troublemakers’ treading on race and religion again and again. it had been said that UMNO always have no issue to bring up at all so all they could do is to bring up race and religion! shame on them!
picatho
yeah you are right. in penang, what was (and still is) heard here and there is - in hokkien “gee na chi beh tua han”. translate literally: ‘child bring up cannot grow’. i’m sure you all know what it mean.
meng yoe
no problem. my pleasure to do the linking.
bob
yes i heard some people say most of them are from neighbouring states kedah and perlis while maverick said most are from the mainland (er… but that still consider as penang). and of course many many people saying they were being paid to be there… some said RM50, some RM80.
ku cheng and peace malaysia
thanks for the links.
hund
yeah. last time eh wanna join bersih or the human rights day rally, i takut to join but methink i shouldn’t takut to join an UMNO protest as there will be no fear of water canon or tear gas or being arrested.
kitty
yep… that was what i heard (as my response to bob).
wits
oh yeah that was one of the shameful part - the ex DCM being involved! maybe because of him around, the police no make arrest? terrible!
to all who ping this post, thanks!
