I've been wondering for quite sometime.....
Apekehal minah ni kelam kabut sangat with her deadline on the 9th of July....
I've asked the question before....
Lu nak rally ni to prove that Lu Boleh Kumpul Tampa Permit ka? Or lu nak create awareness on the so called erection issues...
Cuba cita sikit oi...
With regards to Rights to Assemble under the Constitution itu sudah di cover oleh Blogger AVoice go here
The latest news is expected.....
KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 — Bersih has vowed to gather in Stadium Merdeka for its July 9 rally despite the Cabinet’s refusal to allow them to use any stadium in the capital city, ostensibly because the electoral reform coalition has been outlawed.
Bersih said in a statement last night that it “will not for one moment be swayed from our decision to gather there” to call for free and fair elections. Go here
Now this is becoming more complex....
First BERSIH have not applied for the permit to assemble
KUALA LUMPUR, July 6 — Bersih chairman Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan has accused the authorities of “lacking good faith” for demanding that the group apply for a permit to hold its planned stadium rally this weekend.
She said the latest hurdle to the July 9 rally for free and fair elections was “wholly inconsistent” with Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s earlier assurance that Bersih 2.0 could be held in a stadium, as well as the King’s wishes.
“Why are you asking us to apply for a permit when the prime minister has already okayed it?
“We don’t understand it,” she told the Foreign Correspondents’ Club (FCC) here.
Deputy Inspector-General of Police Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar earlier today reminded Bersih to apply for a permit for Saturday’s rally, warning that failure to do so would still make the event an illegal gathering.
He said Bersih had yet to inform or notify the police of their plans for the rally but gave assurance that the group’s permit application process would be expedited in view of the urgency of the situation. More here
What is so special about them that they seem to be acting as if they are above the law?
Minus the lembus from the Pakatan Rakyat yang nak kena kerah to participate for the rally.... how many man on the street support do they actually have?
Hard to tell right...
Their first memo did not have the signatory of Citizens of Malaysia.....
And they had how many years from 2007 to gather signatories from Malaysians from all walks of life?
Wonder why they did not do a country wide petition?
But let's do a comparison on their online efforts so far shall we...
Macam biasa typical strategy of late is to utilise facebook, twitter and sekarang ada style baru pakai pic badges......refer here their official announcement on the campaign
54,889 people like it.......
What about their official tweeter page....
6054 Followers......
official pic badge page...camne?
57, 347 mamat and minahs......
If I were to sum up all other non official pic badges pages....
Official Pic Badge 57,347 main selit Badges...29,013 = 86,450
bole cita ka ?
Campur the official FB Page 54,899 + Tweet 6054
Campur the official FB Page 54,899 + Tweet 6054
Considering the MAGNITUDE OF "THE ISSUE" takkan la 147,403 Orang aje?
I'm assuming that no duplication between all the data....kasi chance la.....nanti claim kata gua discount lebih pulak........
Oh BTW Mr Badigol Mentri KDN
If you are looking for folks with T-shirts....
Best you start with those with Pic Badges......
Anyway back to the data........to me ......The very the strange one.....
Let us compare another initiative shall we......
In the interest of a balanced data I must pick issues that cuts across the Racial and Religious Boundaries..
The best data would be the Anti Warisan Merdeka Facebook Page....
That thing was Viral beb.....
Below a screenshot of the current numbers....
If I were to compare the Allah Ciplak protest page....that now defunct page had 291 K supporters....
Well let's go back to the Perasan Lebih BERSIH 2.0.....
The 2.0 behind the name is a sign of more to come from this group of people......
Wonder why this group does not want to start the dialog properly and defer their intention to a later date after BERSIH is no longer considered a threat to National Security
They issued this statement before meeting YDPA

Remember my earlier post ...refer here
The entrepreneur will throw the first stone when he calculates that the risk that he will be apprehended for doing so has diminished to an acceptable level. The risk of arrest declines as a function of two variables--the size of the crowd relative to the police force available to control it, and the probability that others will follow if somebody leads.
Check out Tony Tompel tweet earlier...
Think for yourself......
What will PERKASA, PATRIOT and Geng2 Silat do?
Sit tight and watch the so called 300K "overwhelm" the police and openly defy the Police....
WHAT IF THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE HELPING THE POLICE TO UNDERTAKE CITIZEN ARREST?
WHAT IF THEY SAY THAT THEY ARE HELPING THE POLICE TO UNDERTAKE CITIZEN ARREST?
It will only take one idiot to kerek lebih pakai T-Shirt Kuning beb...
Think about it folks.......
Leave you with a piece from the Book of Counted Sorrows by Dean Koontz (the title of the post is from him as well)
Living in the modern age,
death for virtue is the wage.
So it seems in darker hours.
Evil wins, kindness cowers.
Ruled by violence and vice
we all stand upon thin ice.
Are we brave or are we mice,
here upon such thin, thin ice?
Dare we linger, dare we skate?
Dare we laugh or celebrate,
knowing we may strain the ice?
Preserve the ice at any price?"
Or do we embrace chaos?
Oh bilamase pulak minah ni selit RCI?
