People, it's been 50 years of this ('Trust us, we're the government, MPs, your local council, whatever ...'). Pak Lah didn't invent these crackdowns; that happened a long time ago. I'd say all PMs past have wielded this weapon of convenience. The sad thing is that Pak Lah isn't stopping it. But he ain't the creator of this monster.dragonstarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426025403444109500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-38687855613094573112007-11-12T12:37:00.000+08:002007-11-12T12:37:00.000+08:00sakkri zakaria: I was a journalist with Bernama, t...sakkri zakaria: I was a journalist with Bernama, the Star and the NST.

But the figure given by Bernama (4,000) was grossly inaccurate. Bernama conveniently dropped one "zero" from the figure. <BR/><BR/>Rocky said it was about 60,000 (and I believe him since he was there).<BR/><BR/>And it could be more. There is no way we could get the precise number, but judging from the sheer size of the crowd, it certainly could not be a mere 4,000.maria a samad (kak ton)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08806908975023136019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-22700230669529924812007-11-12T11:22:00.000+08:002007-11-12T11:22:00.000+08:00Were you the one, at one time ago working with JDA...Were you the one, at one time ago working with JDA.Adam Sakrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16718217784136819807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-29200697159610879492007-11-12T10:15:00.000+08:002007-11-12T10:15:00.000+08:00Salam Kak Ton,I was told that Singapore tv news re...Salam Kak Ton,<BR/><BR/>I was told that Singapore tv news reported the marchers were in excess of the 100,000!cakapajehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12591299159181667866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-53109599848646736302007-11-12T09:32:00.000+08:002007-11-12T09:32:00.000+08:00zawi: Would like to add this to my comment earlier...zawi: Would like to add this to my comment earlier "... following AI expulsion from the party and the Government."maria a samad (kak ton)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08806908975023136019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-27911890558154483492007-11-12T09:02:00.000+08:002007-11-12T09:02:00.000+08:00rocky: Going through a"withdrawal" syndrome?

I was there at the first rally at Masjid Negara and later at the Dataran Merdeka. Thousands attended the rallies, people from all walks of life, of all ages … young & old and there were many who brought their children. Yet the coverage in the mainstream media on those rallies was minimal. The rakyats' frustatrtions were later translated into votes when the BN lost Terengganu and Kelantan to the Oppositions and lost some seats. So I think the Government must take heed of this rally/march. Pak Lah can't afford to dismiss it as <I>“demonstratsi jalanan.”</I> Otherwise, his hope of a repeat of the BN Big victory in the 2004 G. election will remain a dream.<BR/><BR/>Yes, I do agree with, the figure could have been higher, no I am SURE the figure would be higher, hadnt the police condoned off the areas surrouding Dataran Merdeka.maria a samad (kak ton)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08806908975023136019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-16838208485690721472007-11-11T23:22:00.000+08:002007-11-11T23:22:00.000+08:00aunty maria, ok ot it. no worries. i wasnt sure i ...aunty maria, <BR/><BR/>ok ot it. no worries. i wasnt sure i can make it anyway.Kerp (Ph.D)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08187993712816646804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3763854418717592898.post-87955039354838701482007-11-11T20:57:00.001+08:002007-11-11T20:57:00.001+08:00Kak Ton,100,000 people culd have easily been there...Kak Ton,<BR/>100,000 people culd have easily been there if they didnt stop all entry to KL.

The turn out, I think,is beyond the expectation of the organisers. Just look at all the photos. Yet Bernama came up with a figure of 4,000.
