PEKIDA was behind the demonstration. After the demo was call off, one of the youth was saying, "da habis ker, tak ada air dan makanan, lapar ini, kering tekak". I believe, Muslim friend's shall be given a rights to express their disatisfaction against the Bar Council for organising the forum but it's totally unacceptable to stop the forum in half way. Our men in blue's was taking side and pleased the crowd, fail to act when few PEKIDA thugs use vulgar words against the participants. If professional's as Bar Council was deny the rights to dialogue in professional manner then how are we going to move forward together. The forum was not to question the "Islam" status but it was more on looking the solution for non-muslims. Non-muslims have no remedy when the case involve syariah matter's. We need a law that can protects everyone equally.

Protects everyone equally
While recognising and respecting Article 121(1a), Ragunath said it was unjust to compel anyone to be subjected to laws and courts based on a religion that the person did not profess.
He said the council was “troubled” by the continuing calls from certain quarters that the forum be cancelled.
Claims that the forum would create misunderstanding, anger and tension were in stark contrast with the government’s assurances of more dialogue, Ragunath said.
“The forum is not about conversion per se as the council endorses the absolute right of individuals to embrace Islam.
“Instead, the forum will address the ancillary issues that arise from such situations and will emphasise the need for laws, and a judicial system, that protects everyone equally.
“It is the continued suppression of open and respectful discourse, not public forums, that will cause tension and jeopardise national unity.
“We are taking the necessary precautions to ensure that the dialogue takes place in a controlled and constructive manner, by holding the forum in a closed setting and requiring participants to register for the event.”
Independence Month
I’m really shocked when I saw, our national flag was in deplorable shape and we are celebrating the independence day in August. This shall not happen at all yet it’s seems no one bother although the flag pole was exactly opposite the DBKL building. KL which comes under the federal territory ministry shall look into it rather than bickering internally within the party. Ganja Saravanan on his blog said, he born and grown up near to the Kampung Baru but what he doesn’t understand was, born and growing in a certain places not means he will know all the details. I will be happy if he stop talking and writting non-sense in his blog and look into the broader issues. Any way I hope you can spent your valuable two minutes to watch the clip and and give me your comment.

Anwar Released on Bail
"I will not Back Off"
Anwar in his press statement said. He will not back off even if the umno put him behind the bar in Sungai Buloh. He stress definitely he will stand in by-election. The whole process of sodomy charges was done in bad intention or what Anwar call as "political conspiracy" to stop him from taking over the power from umno. While umno man's philandering and running after the other person's property, its shame and really disturbing to read the way our country administered by the umno politicians. To secure the power they are willing to do any thing including racial sentiment provocation. Its really shame, police report and statutory declaration against umno man were not investigated in right way but then they go after the man who lodges the report. There is a limit for every thing but then umno have gone over the border and they will pay for it. The CHANGE will start from Permatang Pauh.
