silence

we can't speak but we know we share a sense of togetherness. we can't write but it's definitely stirring deep down in our hearts. how long can physical barriers hold. a dam can only hold that much water. when the pressure is too much there will be cracks and it'll finally burst. surely they know. is it their denial that continues to garner such actions. I can only pray.

midget was referring to the bersih thingi??

I assumed she couldn't care less bout it! lol

bit too well written for such a campaign...

Alicia Loi said...

it's not just a thingi, and certainly not just 'such a campaign'. it was a rather big event and i think it touched many of us malaysians, me included.

well, if xu vin wasnt talking about that, then.... lol

alicia's right. heheh. its a huge thing. and it affected our country politically, economically and socially. thr're many ways to look at it. maybe for some ppl it just represents some kind of rally bcz of dissatisfaction twds the gov. whether it was politically motivated, wadever reason, it still shows that thr's a huge mountain of dissatisfaction among the ppl. the lengths the gov went to disband the rally was huge, whether its for their own gain, or to protect the ppl's safety, it's still seen on the international scene as a mass crackdown and taking away the freedom of expression in the country. its good and bad. its too massive for me to analyse so all i can do is, give a sigh, turn away and just pray. heh.
