Dramatic Week!/Malaysiakini.

A week to remember, the barring of the Parliament House, a rare live debate between DSAI & Shabery Cheek, the arrest of DSAI, the arrest of RPK.

In my previous comment i mentioned about the most despised personal of the bunch, is no other than the Home Minister, Syed Hamid Albar, it looks like there is going to be more of him to talk about and i believe it is all going to be negative. It is not so much of him doing his job badly but i guess his character, the show of arrogance(bare in mind he too is not above the law)Barring the public and media from the parliament house with just sheer speculation of a planned demonstration by the opposition is a typical example of his limited intelligence.(Infact he did say not to speculate )Last but not least his attitude,(tidak apa) kind, as shown when answering reporters or the media on the whereabouts of BALA and the arrest of DSAI and the list will go on, that i am sure of.

So much have been said about the Live debate, in the polls done by Malaysiakini, DSAI was the clear winner by a mile, hands down. The PM infact took a gamble approving the debate,as it would either destroy DSAI or damage the reputation and integrity of their policies.I cant blame the Government for not conceding the defeat, Shabery too, would not admit for the fact he was out classed, instead the Government played the PR game, saying that the debate only shows how transparent and liberal they are. Democracy lives! Even the invited panel for the Information Minister, the vice cancellor of UUM,Datuk Nordin Kardi made a fool of himself.(I wonder if he is aware that cats dont lay eggs)No credit was given to DSAI for even trying to share his proposed alternative to reduce the price of fuel.At least it is a positive and i should say praticle proposal(though it can be fine tuned further) given the time. In conclusion DSAI came out of the debate even more favoured to be the next PM.

The highlight of the week, the arrest of DSAI, 15 cars, masked police personals(UTK)to arrest a 61 year old man? The arrest was way beyond the time given for DSAI to make his date at IPK. And as usual,a very lame reason given, "they have reason to believe DSAI would not be present at the IPK" DSAI was made to look like the most wanted criminal that walk across Malaysian soil. I can understand that the police officers was only carrying out their orders but was it necessary to do it in such a manner? To add to DSAI already miserable day, first, interrogation for hours, then to the HKL, again needing 10 cars to escort him there, stripping, measuring his tools, a humilation repeated, haunting him again after ten years. The worst was yet to come, transported him back to IPK and a bare cemented lockup awaited him,he was detained for the night there,sleeping on the cold cemented floor, only to aggravate his back from an old injury inflicted 10 years ago.Sorrowful sight!Release the next day on bail.

Lastly, the arrest of RPK, dont have much to say about him but all i can say is this guy has balls made of steel.In all aspects i see him as committing suicide,he is going against all odds, taking it to the No2 and his wife. But then again i trust he has his reasons, better so, strong evidence to back his SD.It is either going to cost him heavily or he will be a national hero exposing the truth. In a way foolish but i guess it is the principle he has that matters most.Are there any more like him out there?

What a dramatic week!
