The effects of fuel price hike is felt every where. Even in Malaysia, mate. The effects are so bad that people are coming to protest. It is also happening in India. Interestingly when people from different nations are facing similar problems they seem to act similarly.
In India the CPI (M) has organised street protests right smack in the capital and some nearby towns and are even burning effigies of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Unfortunately, right here at home Malaysians are still not free to voice out their dissatisfaction through a street demonstrations. All over Klang Valley there has been mass protest in a smaller scale compared to their Indian counterparts. And in Malaysia it was organised by the DAP. Janice Lee the assemblywomen for Teratai was even arrested as she too joined the protests. PAS and PKR activists joined the protests too.
There were even demos in Penang and of all the places Sarawak. This developments are good in the sense that the people are becoming more vocal in expressing their dissatisfaction. However the arrest of the above mentioned assembly person is totally uncalled for. The police should only take action when there is clear and present danger. Plus the rakyat are the ones who elected the government, regardless whether it is a National Front or People's Alliance.
Rakyat the Boss. Hidup Rakyat
