IGP says 6000; Najib says 10,000, Utusan says "beratus ratus". What do you expect from liars. See for yourself how many are there. (I estimate this crowd to be around 20,000 to 30,000 - many more are hidden to the left and right and also by the buildings in front. They are also behind me.) This is only at Menara Maybank. The protesters are also at KL Sentral, KLCC, Masjid Negara, Masjid Jamek, etc. and small groups scattered here and there. There is also a total lockdown on KL, making it difficult for people to enter the city (no traffic can enter and public transports are shut down---consequently roads are almost empty), yet thousands upon thousands sneak in through the cordon to protest most loudly. See for yourself.
It was electrifying to see the unity of all the races--an experience I will never forget.
No window was broken. No street lamp was broken. No car was burn. Not even a stone was thrown. The crowd was superb in their conduct. They were disciplined. The only violence came from the police. The FRU shot tear gas at them every where they ran, even into a maternity hospital (Tung Shin). The police chased them like rats all over the place. Still they did not fight back. In spite of police's violence, the people did not retaliate. They were peaceful and disciplined. (See part 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I5j98UjN4f0).
I am proud of all who took part. They have exposed the nastiness, the wickedness, the ugliness, and the lies of the government. (If not for the crackdown, clampdown and lockdown of KL, perhaps ten times the numbers would have turned up.)
I am glad I was there to observe and experience this historical moment. They came from all over Malaysia---Kedah, Johor, Penang, Sabah, Sarawak, Pahang, Melaka, etc. From today, I believe a new dawn has begun for the rakyat. As the crowd shouted, "Hidup Rakyat." Najib - dare you to call for election now?
Buat sahabat-sahabat teruskan perjuangan kalian,sesungguhnya usaha ini satu dari tangga untuk mencapai redha allah,kita semua pasti mendapat ganjaran di atas semangat juang ini selagi kita benar dan menyokong kebenaran.
