It’s not because I really like rallies. I find them too hot or too wet, hell to get to, and liable to get me arrested. Been there, done that, wasn’t fun at all. I’ve been reading a lot about the spectrum of responses towards Hindraf, and it’s been really engaging. I’ve searched my soul, and I now know what [...] Good news: Malaysiakini video speaks a 1000 words! Check it out, it’s far better than my big ass collection of pictures. So I’ll just add tidbits. Demo prob started around 4.15pm; then the police started the usual threats and then started spamming their sirens to drown out the speakers. New strategy, apparently, where all the squad cars [...]

Malaysiakini article is out, as are statements and appeals from Suaram. Highlights from Suaram: Eyewitnesses said the police cracked down the demonstration without giving any warning to the protestors. The demonstration started at 4.00pm at the toll near Cheras Mahkota and merely less than five minutes, the police moved in violently to arrest the protestors. Some detainees have [...]
Murugan Rajoo, 36, was born without legs. On Jan 4, he was detained by the Selayang Municipal Council for over an hour, and forced to urinate in his pants. Sequence of events: Mr. Murugan (front row in light blue shirt with hands raised) is a petty trader without a license who claims he first applied [...] Bowling and arcading at 1 Utama with my younger cousins (last night for visiting Canadian cousin :( ), one of us actually misplaced our car keys – imagine our shock and horror.
