Bismillahirrahmanirrahim
428 was marked as rakyat day. It was history in the making. It showed us the the real meaning of democracy and insanity. 428 was not ordinary day and people who support this issue, are not ordinary people.
Among millions of Malaysians, there were people who brave enough to question the authority and people in corridors of power. You have been up there for so long and forgot the real life of ordinary people, of low-class citizens, of homeless and needy. Where the distribution of Malaysian wealth can be done fairly, you choose to give them to your families, cliques and cronies. Because of this greediness and selfish, of needs to be in power, you manipulate electoral system to suit your needs so that you can maintain being the upper hand. So that half of the nations wealth go into your pocket instead of providing free medical services and free education to the people. Keep on plundering until it went dry. (Yes, I am that mad).
Among millions of Malaysians, they are the brave one. The purpose is simple, to let others know the dirty works by these greedy foxes. And to let the upper power know that we, as people of Malaysia, had had enough. Change is needed in order to see changes. Without clearance in our electoral system, the light could hardly be seen. And this light (maybe) not in our time, but inshaAllah for our children to come.
As for me, you should not let anybody who become Prime Minister to hold second portfolio as Finance Minister. Full stop.
Yes, Malaysia is a peaceful country and progressive nation. It has been pictured into our mind since ages ago. But please, how do you define peaceful and progressive? I am not talking about literal meaning, but in the context of wealth distribution and fair education to the people regardless of race and religion. There should be other way rather than street demonstration, as certain people say. Internet, youtube, alternative media is another option that can be used to highlight the issue. But tell me, how many houses in Malaysia have internet. Rural areas? And this is not one day issue actually. They have been highlighting the misconduct cases in election since 2007 but nothing been done. As long as prime channel (tv and radio) controlled by the upper hand, nothing will change. Thus, the street is the only way we know to tell the world we want CHANGE.

In the event of 428, I was at my hometown, checking old luggage of spring coat and winter coat that still wearable so that I don't have to buy new one for company training. Alhamdulillah, managed to find few jacket and coat for next week travel. In the same time, keep watching television for any news regarding Bersih. But as we all aware, prime news TV1, TV2 and TV3 never be fair in telling stories. Internet down for whole weekend. Managed to check friends update on Facebook but it hurt reading status from people who don't understand. Its ok if you are from "ceruk or hulu mana" but please, with degree, you all should have better mindset and different way of thinking. Please.
So here I am, after a week of Bersih 3.0 event, typing here what heart tells.
And as a muslim, its compulsory to hinder tyrant and unfair. Amal ma'ruf nahi mungkar. Peace.
“Sesungguhnya binasa mereka yang sebelum kamu kerana mereka itu apabila
seorang yang dianggap ‘mulia’ dalam kalangan mereka mencuri dia
dibiarkan. Apabila seorang yang lemah mencuri, mereka laksanakan hukuman
ke atasnya. Demi Allah! Jika Fatimah binti Muhammad mencuri nescaya aku
potong tangannya”
(Riwayat al-Bukhari).
