Though I have really condone any kind of protests, I could not help but to agree with the move undertaken by them.
Let's see whether today's protest would be reported in tomorrow's paper(Saturday). It did not last week.

If it does not, then all of us shall join and create a swelling crowd of more than 20k ppl and bring the traffic in the city to a halt. Let's see whether the press can continue to keep quiet.

We shall see whether the govt can always take us Malaysians for granted. We shall see whether the govt. can always sweep things under the carpet and expect Malaysians to keep quiet. We shall see whether corrupt practices moving forward remain the same.

It is about time that Malaysians should not keep quiet.

Have you read the latest Read the Bernama news here?

Now who were the ones twisting or hiding facts when someone published something like this and twisting facts like this.

in order for such protest to take effect, we must do it on a sat/sun where ppl dont hv to work and with the anticipated traffic, ppl cud plan properly ahead. I too wud love to join but i m not from that area. i dont wish to be caught in a traffic as well. If well orhcestrated, ppl can car pool, take LRT, etc.

I applause those who excercise their rights and protest.If I were in malaysia right now, I would chicken out,because my face would came out in the media and probably will get fired.Thats how much G have influence me with my right of freedome of speech.

Here in UK, they have protest (peacefully), but no FRU come to drown them with water.

And don't forget the foreign media. Inform them first. The G can keep it from other parts of Malaysia but they can't keep it from the rest of the world.

Save face or change your lifestyle. The choice is yours.

Only 800 people protest?
Looks like 30 sen increase doesn't really hurt majority of the people. I have heard many complaints but when it come to real actions everyone is shying away from it. Is Malaysian too lazy to protest?

It does not matter how many people had protested. At least those people out there have stood up for their RIGHTS to be heard!

What about us all? More often than ever, we're handicapped for various reasons. Our 'kiasi' mentality ought to be changed!

Don't let other people govern our lives if they don't have the right capacities. Whatever happened to the word 'TRANPARENCY'? Or is it only applicable to issues in favour of the govt. only?

let's be brave, like thai, taiwanese, koreans...
never intimated by
BN's "fear racist threats" tricks again!
We malaysians are, mature and stable.

I'm like 80% (against the recent fuel price hike) & 20% (have to accept it) because eventually its a reality that the global price had increased and is hovering around USD61 per barrel.

Everyone is affected by the price hike, but why only oppositions are protesting?. Aren't non-opposition hurt by the price hike? What got to me is the 1st picture with women and children in it. I will be very sorry to know if their participant in the protest is due to "persuasion" by some parties trying to use sympathy tactic.

I have difficulties to accept women (i'm talking about normal homemaker - thats how the women looks like in the picture anyway) and children who barely know about politics and world oil trend to be included in this protest.

And I'll be worry if one day our govt is run by the same parties who use protest to change govt.

People power have its usefulness and shouldn't be use in such protest by organising hate-themed protest. People power comes in voting rights. If you feel BN is not doing a good job, then cast your vote in the next election for the appropriate parties.

Come to think of it, if you were in the govt, do you think you can sustain the high oil price with perpetual 100% subsidy?

A barrel of Shell gas delivered to my house now cost RM31,Used to be Rm26.Thats an increase of RM5.WTF!!!

Hi There.

I was in the protest , it was a "sad" turnnout anyway. Only about 2000 came. And some left mid-way ( maybe because of the over heat that day ). And of coz , it was a working day. So many could not come. I saw many of them "peeping" from inside their office up in KLCC. All though the police didnt "touch" or "catch" us, they did irritate us alot, the helicopter was flying very low. So it was like having a mini taufan there. But of coz rakyat didnt give in. =) .. Good for them.

Perhaps we should learn from Hong Kong; a merely 500,000 people turned up in 2003's July 1st peaceful demonstration to protest against Tung Chee Hwa(then Chief Executive) for being 'undemocratic'... 500,000 makes up to about 8% of population!!! That is the spirit of democracy... I was there to feel the heat of demonstration, which I believe Malaysian should act the same too.

If 2000 demonstrators unable to catch our government's attention, why not if we try with 20,000 people?

We hope in next peace demonstration at KLCC, we can to see our beloved opposition party leaders like Dato Sri Anwar Ibrahim, Lim Kit Siang and Karpal Singh to make appearance.

In the past, any demonstration is considered a racist issue; but today, it is a 'Malaysian' issue.

To all protestors outthere.

Just pretend that you are living with your wife, 2 in-laws, 2 teen kids, 1 baby girl.

Lets say 1 of the teens want to do something that you dun quite agree and it became a family issue, would you prefer to :-
1. all sit down and try to rationalise the situation? or
2. you sit inside home, all others protest sitting outside your home (including your lovely baby girl)?

I'd rather choose 1st option, and I believe you protestors will prefer instead of sitting outside to protest while the majority family is inside the house and try to sink in a reasonable solution and face the reality.

Why protest and make inconvenient to others and shamelessly show this to the world? M'sia is not such a country. Or maybe it haven't reach a stage that warrants such demonstration of people power.

Me, my family, my friends, my colleagues do not like this or any other fuel price hike.

I even believe Pak Lah's administration do not like to make such a decision. But eventually, reality is reality and we all would have to rationalise and sink in the situation.
