Hanturaya Putrajaya Mengamuk Lagi!
Dear people, as you may have heard three citizens have been detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA) yesterday and last night. They are Raja Petra Kamaruddin (RPK – the 58-year-old editor of popular newsportal Malaysia Today), together with journalist Tan Hoon Cheng (a Sin Chiew Daily News reporter) and Seputih MP Teresa Kok. The question now is who’s next?
On top of that, the government had also issued “show cause” letters to three local newspapers!
Read all about the arrests here.
All I want to say is that it’s nothing out of the ordinary for the current administration. I’m not surprised at all. Scared animals, cornered and wounded would swing its claws at anything; by being one, they are hoping we would react the same and take upon the streets in anger and frustration. Lets not fall into that obvious trap!

All in, tune in but never drop out! Chill & stay free, boss! Let the belligerent racist, fascist fukkers gobble each other up!
As we watch the sharks inevitable feeding frenzy, lets entertain ourselves by singing along to this song:
HANTURAYA PUTRAJAYA – Carburetor Dung | Download HERE
Suara mu yang lantang melawan, siapa punya?!
Rumah mu yang indah tersergam, siapa punya??!
Hidup mu yang kenyang senang-lenang, siapa punya???!
Kebebasan mu yang ada, siapa punya?!
Cuba-cuba naikkan suara,
Aku heret, aku ikat, aku tangkap, aku sumbat!
Cuba-cuba naikkan kepala,
Aku ketuk, aku lepuk, aku luku, aku cantas!
Cuba-cuba celikkan mata,
Aku cucuk, aku sembur, aku genyeh, aku jolok!
Jangan lupa!
Aku yang berkuasa!
Pagi hari kan ku terkam!
Pintu rumah kan ku terjang!
Kan ku berkas, kan ku bungkus!
Kan ku heret mu kedalam!
Jangan kau lupa!
Jangan kau alpa!
Ingat lah semua!
AKU YANG BERKUASA!

so what do we do? how do we show dissent?
hartal?
thanks to fahmi, who has popularized the term, it could one way for us to show
not that i am a believer in 916 or 2012 but it would be a great if we can all show solidarity and stay kat rumah. tak keluar. bussiness tutup for that day. someone even called it ponteng. yeah, lets ponteng!
p/s: ricecooker kena tutup as well la.
alamak, tersend!
havent finished yet.
hartal would be one way for us to show dissent.
actually, the idea is goin around. pleack check out harris ibrahim’s blog to find out more.
so what say all you people?
Ohh…. no wonder raja petra didn’t came for the book launch of 8 march at times bookstore that time… hmmm…… this is interesting, we’ll not sure if that could effect much thilaga, you could stop and make the business in the country go down for a while but i don’t think it would still stop them from arresting all of us and send us to the ISA, we could try but not sure how many damage we could do. Wait there is another way though…. but a bit sucidal… hmm…..
I like the song. I think dirge songs are cool.

This what makes me really sick on defining human being by their skin colour /selfish belief &disbelief /others selfish thread, what do i mean is yeah..religion and race identity, to feminist warrior here, I’m sorry I haven’t finish studying on it since more than last 10 years ago..I’m more interested in space exploration/ astronomy kind of reading..so I haven’t make-up my final mind on the gender issue, ok back to the hot topic, and at the end you must constantly obey da fukin bastards will ya? Who do they think they’re? Do you know the bastard I meant?
Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do!
Crass or The Clash? hahaha..everybody love sense of humor doesn’t it? Please choose one or two or three…
Raja Petra is quite ok to me in term of his writing, in-depth, thoughtful, and very open. I can say now I like his writing in the Malaysia Today eventhough not as talented as my favourite MRR’s columnist. I think people in the scene who refuse /ignore to read a column in MRR is very lame. Thank you.
Later on..
hahaha… that’s true.
but i m just glad that people are talking about it, you know and gettin pissed at these people for pulling off such crap to handle the crackdown.
anyways, there is a petition, do not know if you people know. but they are plannin to get 1 million signatures or something. kira nak tunjuk dissent la but dengan petition. petition pun petition la. show support, solidarity, and dissent.

I guess the least we can do is keep on talking about this, as to raise awareness. It is depressing to see such blatant injustice in front of your eyes and yet powerless to do anything.
no, we are not powerless.
we just dont have the mass. 🙂
which is kinda sad. thats why i agree with you that we shud start talkin about it. here, in blogs, and have non-virtual discussion as well.
so that when we have actions, theres mass.
