But that has to take a backstage, for a woman is now the Malaysian Lady Of Liberty. The name is Annie Ooi (hope I get the name right) - who defies the saying "the spirit is willing, but the body is weak". For her, both spirit and body are as strong as ever.
While millions only dared to stay in front of the computer checking facebook updates, Annie endured tear gas and water cannon - for she was deemed as a threat to national security. And in a way, she endured all that on behalf of us all.
It will be my honour to one day shake Annie's hand.
BN Govt - the mainstream media may protect you, but in truth - you're truly fucked this time.

Isn't it such an irony...

1Malaysia Boleh! Woohoo!

Annie Ooi, thank you for being so brave and for showing us that we are cowards
there are those who don't have back-up to find the money for squatter rental or to buy food for their kids and and what if they end up in prison for walking? nobody help them at that point of time!!
I was gridlocked in subang la.. =( couldnt go even if i could.. nvm next time stay in hotel one day before =p
will she lose her pension ? HOPE NOT .
We're indeed shamed by Annie, God bless her mighty courageous heart..I've said it once and I'll say it again, every vote matters! I for one have always actively voted during elections..To all my wimpy friends who can only talk but not take action by voting..I hope you'll be shamed by this even more!
Truly admirable woman and all of them who joined in the peaceful rally. Now I wonder, what's the difference between Libya, Syria and Malaysia?
Carol King sings : " you've got a friend ! "
I have made up my mind - I am coming home to vote in 2013!!!!
I finally realized that every vote does count! And we have the right to a free and fair vote!
Hidup Rakyat!!
Datuk Ambiga is just a pathetic, attention seeker whore.
thank you Bersih 2.0 for all the jams around town. I am sure DAP, anwar and co will continue to mogok after winning te next election.
KC, i bet you're one of the cowards who doesn't even bother to vote. Perhaps the better way is for you to stay silent and not discourage others who have more balls than you. Presuming of course that you're a guy.
Hmm I doubt that the chinese shops in Petaling Streets that were forced to shutter down for the day look at this poor lonely woman as a heroine.
This old woman would always be alone. With no children or husband to look after her. A pubic rally is the only way for her to get some company and attention.
After the rally, she will be alone again naturally.
Many girls join the rally for the social opportunities to meet strange men. Jagjad this, ali that and so on...
she & A samad said... has made BERSIH2.0 BIG!!!!!!!!!!
Check your facts lonelywoman commenter. She has a family!! How can you make such a foolish comment. Perhaps you're speaking from personal experience??
