Filepic from Himpunan Mansuhkan ISA on 1/8/2009
You stand firm on the principal of democracy. You go against bad government. You speak up and articulate your thoughts. You create social awareness. You create fear to the people holding power. You got arrested. You are not given fair trial. Your voice is being suppressed.
Your image is ruined. Your family and friends are worried. You lost your job. You lost your dignity. You lost your rights.
You become the victim of democratization process for the betterment of the society and generations to come. The cost to pay is high.
But you fight for what you believe in, democracy.
For you people who are going to Bersih 2.0, PERKASA or UMNO Youth demonstration…
Is it worth it?
What kind of country are you living in?
No matter what you do, think of your loved ones.
Be responsible for your action.
For others..
While some people are out there using different ways to make lives better for everyone, what are you doing at home?
Telling the world that Malaysia is a bad country? Planning your future in overseas?
No point you people just sit there and watch. No point you people just criticize. No point you people just complain. No point you people just talk but no action.
The process of democratization won’t happen in a fortnight. It definitely won’t happen if no one ever takes the first step. Now the ball has rolled.
Are you going to take the baton and continue the long run?
If Malaysia is a democratic country, then show it. Behave like one!
You, must be part of it.
Uphold the integrity and sovereignty of Federal Constitution. Uphold the 5 principles of Rukun Negara.
People should stand united for any good cause either it’s against the Government or the Opposition.
Without voters, there’ll be no legitimate government. If now the Government is afraid of its people, are you gona be afraid of your government?
I am neither asking you to join demonstration nor asking you not to join demonstration.
Life is not about you and your future itself, it’s also about the generations to come.
Enough said.
ps: I do not hope to get arrested for this thought sharing. This is what Article 10 of the Federal Constitution offers. I love my country, Malaysia.
