I've been having some weird reoccurring dream. In that dream, I am worrying about an examination that I'm about to take. Something hard for me, like math, to be precise. I worry about it but yet i never prepare for it. I've been having this dream for quite a while now. I wonder what it really means. Kind of spooky also, in some sort of way.
What happened in KL yesterday was a major clusterfuck. I'm not going to take sides here, because I think both sides of the coin are kind of in the wrong for some reasons or another, but the violence that happened yesterday was uncalled for. A person died. Why do it have to be like that? Somebody died. Was it worthed? Did he die for the good of the country? For me, he should not have died. This definitely could be avoided. There were many other ways get your point get heard by people you want them to.
I've seen the pictures. It's unreal. Is this even in KL? Violence everywhere. For me, the credibility of some people after yesterday, are already gone in my eyes. Aren't leaders supposed to be smart in handling these kind of situation. What happened yesterday, is that the best solution that they can come up with?
Forget what the media reports through the tv. If you want to read some unbiased coverage, scour the internet. Use your own judgement.
Here are some links to get you started with:

this is the picture of allahyarham earlier yesterday
also earlier i just heard during 8pm news, the number of people attending the rally was a paltry sum of like 5000ish. A small number compared to the number predicted by the organizers.
But judging from the pictures, its just not possible. There must be like 10 thousand or more. Who are they trying to fool. Sometimes the propaganda spewed by controlled media are just ridiculous.
I also find that the overzealous ways of a certain youth (pemuda) leader a bit like sgt terlalu emotional and like mahu tunjuk bagus.
You should hear the man talk when he is calm and collected in his office. He is someone that is supersmart and educated at the best learning institution in the world. He talks fluently and gets his message across quite eloquently and with gusto.
But sometimes, don't la be too overzealous. Like mahu tunjuk berani sgt. Menjerit2 terpekik pekik mcm apeje. Mahu cari gaduh. Can that be also categorized as inciting rage and hate?
I still do think that what happened yesterday was not the best way to get messages across. At the cost of a life, which could be prevented. Maybe it was his ajal, but nevertheless, people should try to find more humanely suitable ways to get things done. To which I am also not sure how to do it, (my own inadequacy) but the bright minds of the nation should have thought of something, shouldn't they?
Why should we follow other countries and plunge ourselves into chaos?
