"Peaceful" Gathering

Managed to sneak out the office around 10.30 a.m. to join a “Peaceful” demonstration in UPM. Just to show the support for the students who advocate "fair student election". They were going to attend the trials today. But, I’m not too sure that we should call it a trial. Do you think that the students will escape from punishments? No way! There will be no opportunities for the students to defend themselves from the beginning. Students’ rights are long been tied due to the notorious College and University Act (AUKU). Anyway, I believe that the universities’ authorities have acted smarter compared to my uni days. At least, they allow some “peaceful” demonstration or gathering to go on. No direct confrontation with the students. Simply ask the Special Agents to take the photos to create the physiological fear amongst the attendees. "Are you going to be caught next? Be prepared" Oppss….actually my old university were also doing the same last time. No different !!!

Small picture this time. Sorry.... So that there will be no more victims.

  1. Yeow, if you get fired and can't find anymore work, I think you'll definitely have to migrate or go study law so that you can support yourself and not rely on others like engineers do.

    Anyway, good luck to all the students involved. They're going to need it. I think the country has got progressively worse recently. There isn't so much pie left but some people still want to pretend there is. The worst thing is that by pretending that there is, they are painting a segment of their own citizens as bad guys.

    Think of how Hitler came to power by pointing his finger at the Jews. I fear it may turn that way.
