Bersih’s Aftermath: A Movement of Change against Najib?

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 09:46 PM PDT

Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something, and sometimes one creates as significant an impression by remaining silent – these are the words of the Dalai Lama.

The revered leader lives in exile following the 1959 Tibetan uprising which is largely seen as mirroring the discontent of the people against Chinese repression.

The overwhelming sea of yellow Malaysians on Saturday, who called for tougher measures to curb electoral fraud,  reflect a similar dissatisfaction.

Reading the comments of leaders from ruling UMNO/BarisanNasional, the meaning of Dalai Lama’s words dawned upon me.

Their rambling comments, aimed to downplay the Saturday rally, signify their embarrassment and inability to concede defeat.

Prime Minister NajibTunRazak was quick to say that he is happy no one was injured or property destroyed. Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein tried twisting facts to say it was an opposition-led protest, done with the sole aim of gaining political mileage.

The IGP, Ismail Omar, congratulated his men for keeping the situation on the streets under control. He said the rowdy officers used minimal force, thus dismissing the fact that they used excessive force on unarmed protesters.

In a futile effort to repair the government’s tattered image, Ismail said some 6,000 people rallied prompting many responses on social networking sites. Obviously tickled by the police chief’s “inability” to count, many said he must have failed math.

Thinking back, I realize that the government and police have no choice but scramble about to do a patch-up work.

The rally is the biggest anti-government protest in four years. It brought together people from all walks of life to demand that the Election Commission looks into measures to stem electoral irregularities which has helped the BarisanNasional government stay in power.

It has also exposed Najib as a weak leader. Flip flopping on his decisions to meet the Bersih 2.0 steering committee members and allowing them the use of a stadium to hold the rally demonstrate that the ruling elite are divided down the middle.

Following the success of the rally, Najib’s position has become even shakier. The wrest for power between the premier and his deputy, MuhyuddinYassin, is an open secret. Now Muhyuddin has a free pass to push for Najib’s ouster.

But hoping to bolster his position, Najib has opted to take a tough stand by announcing his government is not afraid to take on the opposition in the next general election.

But Najib faces pressure not just from his nemesis but from a vast majority of Malaysians with their 100k resignation demand on Facebook.

The tens of thousands of Malaysians who took to the streets despite weeks of threat from the government and police to call for a check on an electoral system which is open to abuses have created a dynamic impression.

To hold on to whatever dignity that is left, the UMNO/BN leaders and police should have simply shut up. But they indulged themselves in the exact opposite, only to emerge looking more idiotic.

Sunday’s headlines screamed about Najib’s request to the silent anti-Bersih majority to speak up. Without marching on the streets, of course.

MIC chief G Palanivel told reporters the lack of Indian representation at the rally is because they are aware that such practice is no longer relevant in resolving issues.

He further said the realization came about after proactive measures taken by the government that focused on improving the community through efforts such as in the education, social and business sectors.

The MIC is a sell-out. Palanivel’s statement is an attempt to deflect any criticism from UMNO leaders, with whom the MIC enjoys a client-patron relationship.

Palanivel’s arm-chair observation is purely simplistic. Young and professional Indians marched in solidarity with the rest of the protesters to make their demands visible.

Unlike Palanivel, I walked alongside my fellow Malaysians and saw the rounds of tear gas and water cannon shot against the people plus the high handedness of the men in uniform.

Protesters were kicked around, beaten and treated inhumanely. Media friends saw tear gas being shot into the Tung Shin hospital compound by the FRU. And although there is enough video evidence and eye-witness accounts to prove this incident, the police chief insists nothing of that sort happened.

One man died at the rally. Baharuddin Ahmad, according to media reports, collapsed after being tear gassed. His family blames the police for his death, saying their pleading for help to take him to the hospital following seizures, was ignored by the police.

This, in itself, sums up the abuse of power by the police.

I would like to take this opportunity to convey my condolences to Baharuddin’s wife and family.

Instead of adopting a conciliatory measure, Najib’s hardline strategy would only serve to further alienate the people. The crackdown on the protesters has wreaked havoc on Malaysia’s image as one of Southeast Asia’s more democratic nations.

Amnesty International spokeswoman Donna Guest called the crackdown “the worst campaign of repression we’ve seen in the country for years”.

Despite hundreds of police and anti-riot trucks, thousands of baton-wielding policemen, stern warning from the police threatening arrests and a lock-down of Kuala Lumpur, 50,000 people slipped past watchful police officers to join the rally.

Instead of dealing with their discontent to find durable solutions, the government is filibustering to avoid embarrassment. This would only further anger the masses and increase groundswell of unhappiness against the ruling government.

But for now it’s clear that Najib and Co are struggling to accept that a revolution has started in Malaysia and it signals the beginning of their end.

Protest crackdown taints Malaysia’s image: analysts

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 01:10 AM PDT

Agence France-Presse, Updated: 7/10/2011

Malaysian police may have crushed a weekend protest, but analysts say the crackdown has tainted the country’s democratic credentials and could embolden the opposition ahead of elections.

A massive security lockdown on Saturday in the capital Kuala Lumpur crippled a plan by Bersih, a broad coalition of opposition parties and civil society groups, to muster 100,000 people for a rally demanding electoral reforms.

Police used tear gas and water cannon to disperse crowds in the biggest anti-government protests to hit the nation since 2007, when similar demands for reform also ended in chaos on the streets.

More than 1,600 people were arrested, including 16 children as well as prominent lawmakers, and opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim was hospitalised after being knocked down in the pandemonium.

Analysts and campaigners said the stern police action was likely to backfire on the country’s image as one of Southeast Asia’s more democratic countries.

Prime Minister Najib Razak has been cultivating an image of an emerging nation with a strong economy and an open political environment.

“I think it has tarnished Malaysia’s image and its membership in the UN Human Rights Council,” said political analyst Khoo Kay Peng.

Describing the police action as “completely overdone,” Khoo said, “It is a killer to our image as a progressive democratic country.”

Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International condemned the crackdown and the arrests and chided Malaysia for flouting international standards.

“As a current member of the UN Human Rights Council, the Malaysian government should be setting an example to other nations and promoting human rights,” said Amnesty International’s Donna Guest.

“Instead they appear to be suppressing them in the worst campaign of repression we’ve seen in the country for years.”

Yeah Kim Leng, chief economist with independent consultancy RAM Holdings, said the protest cast a negative light on Malaysia, whose economy grew 7.2 percent last year — one of the strongest in Southeast Asia.

“The greater concern is the tangible costs of increased political risk premium and heightened wariness among investors,” said Yeah.

The political opposition led by Anwar scored major gains in general elections in 2008, denying the ruling Barisan Nasional an outright two-thirds majority for the first time since 1969.

Last April, the opposition followed through with upset victories in state polls in Sarawak on Borneo island, a traditional Barisan power bastion.

The opposition, which believes it would have done even better in 2008 — potentially threatening the Barisan Nasional’s half-century rule — if voting had been more fair.

The protesters said they want to see election reforms to prevent fraud, including the use of indelible ink to prevent multiple voting, equal access to the media for all parties and the cleaning-up of electoral rolls.

“It is clear the government is intimidated by the gathering. They did not want the opposition to gain momentum from this protest,” added Khoo.

James Chin, a professor of political science at Monash University’s campus in Kuala Lumpur, said the government had overreacted and warned that “this will lead to blow-back to Najib”.

“The consequences will be felt by Najib in the coming general election. People will vote against the ruling government,” he said.

Political observers noted that the protesters were disciplined on Saturday — refraining from pelting police with rocks, looting stores or smashing windows.

Many were young adults and professionals, who are adamant about their demands for electoral reforms.

“It is clear the government is running scared. People are not afraid of being arrested,” Anwar said.

Khoo said Najib lacked political savvy in allowing police to lock down the capital and launch door-to-door searches in hotels to detain protest leaders in the lead-up to the rally on Friday night.

“There is a clamour for better governance and greater democratic principles, but sadly the government did not get the signals,” he said.

Bersih 2.0, my personal experience on the evening of 9th July 2011

Posted: 10 Jul 2011 01:23 AM PDT

We shouldn't be allowing the UMNO/BN govt. of the the day to keep on treating we Malaysian as stupid anymore. By observing the happenings on the evening of 9th July 2011 in just this part of K.L alone, where a group of our State DAP comrades and myself, I can just say, we cannot afford to keep allowing UMNO/BN controlled govt to just go on sloganeering all these years , under Najib administration of 1Malaysia and "people first" rheoretics. So hypocritical.
.
Why is that this suppose to be a more sincere government that keep stressing concern about the welfare of of the people so seriously in recent years, did not even not allow a peaceful demonstration to go on even in the Merdeka Stadium ? Why and what is the UMNO/BN government so very afraid of ? Looking at the size of the mammoth crowds that come out openly in the streets, from all races, young and old, walking and advancing side by side together, unarmed, never happen before. on that evening . One can tell all Malaysians are so mature, Why? They did not damage public property, nor littering the streets. These protesters are not all from political parties only, but mostly NGOs, individuals, who felt time have come to change the present system in Malaysia. The people really want peace, but the government want war against its own people. This gathering is more to peoples' expressing the eight demands …..for a free and fare election, nothing racial, nothing political and no evil motive behind. Where the rally would be held is not that important. What is even more important is the abuse of power and the violation of human rights by the Malaysian government to allow BERSIH to have the peaceful rally.

People cannot accept the lame excuses of the present ruling UMNO/BN government. Looking at the mega crowds at these locations, Bukit Bintang, KLCC, Mesjid Jamek , and Pudu Plaza area, planning to move towards the Merdeka Stadium were not allowed. For just that one to two days, the people had been made to believe there will be loss of business with the BERSIH rally. Common sense will tell, if each person spent on food and lodging alone on that day, a few million ringgit will be spent in the heart of K.L alone!! But the government directed the police to close all road entrance into K.L. Is this not the police that is causing the hardship and loss of business for the business people in this part of Kula Lumpur? But no, UMNO/BN choose to manipulate and twisting facts and continue to be arrogant and treating the people as stupid. UMNO/BN old tactics will never work anymore with the present generation of Malaysians.

The main purpose of BERSIH is to demand a free and fair election and just to hand over a memorandum to his majesty the Yang Di Pertuan Agong and even his Majesty hinting the ruling government to be fair with the people. Najib choose to use the police to attack the people that had for 54 years since, keep voting UMNO/BN into power. Even Hishamuddin had mention possible involvement of the army. Najib had threatened the survival of democracy in Malaysia. Najib had attack democracy in Malaysia, and what a shame!! Instead of protecting the people and heeding his Majesty's message, UMNO/BN under Najib chose to handle BERSIH rally in such a manner. UMNO/BN will face the wrath of the voters come the 13th general election, for sure. had brought shame to the nation.
