428 2012, BERSIH 3.0 rally.
It will be one of the most significant day in the history of Malaysia.
A historical moment for democracy.
For the first time I express my political views towards my country in words:
Fellow Malaysians, please do not ever, for a second, think that you are tiny and you aren't gonna be at much help for your own country's politic. Please do not ever, for a moment, doubt your decision of attending the rally, if that's what your inner voice is.
Some might object to whatever have been said and done by the organiser of BERSIH, but they couldn't deny the courage and spirit you possess, also, the believe, the faith and the hope you have for your own country.
Some may just disagree of the idea of rally, but they could not negate the ideology behind the rally.
Some would just put you off for your way of expressing the support for the rally, but they could not refute the dream you have for our own country.
Some could suspect the agenda behind the rally, but most importantly, they couldn't take away your rights as a human, a citizen of the land.
It may mean nothing to them, but it could mean everything to others.
People asked :'How can you be sure that all of those who attend the rally are able to change the government? How can BERSIH represent the rakyat? How sure are you that they will be enough people to vote the current government out?'
Well, I am not sure. But, BERSIH is not against government. BERSIH is not one of the many implements of opposition party. BERSIH did not say they want to rule out BN.
They do not choose to pick up any fight or quarrel, do not mean to provoke anyone, would not tolerate any agitation coming from and created by anyone.
All they are asking for is, a clean and fair election. All they want is, BN can win the election with a transparent system.
Just get this straight, it is not right to say that BERSIH is pro-opposition or the rally is held for the sake of anti-government
The fact that they changed from a walking demonstration last year to a peaceful sitting this year should prove that.
There is no ingredient of retaliation, vengeance or revenge, and certainly no hidden agenda.
Malaysia is shedding its tears, it's crying, we can stop it before it becomes real hysterical.
Rome, is indeed, not built in one day. American would not have been this civilised, if it wasn't Martin Luther King, Jr. Your one step today, might be one big leap of the democracy, echoing Neil Armstrong's word.
But please, rakyat Malaysia, do know what you are fighting for. Please do not attend for the sake of it. Please do not get angry over stuffs you understand partially. It annoys people when you keep blabbering nonsensical accusation, without solid base. It is pointless if you attend the rally or support the cause without knowing the objectives behind it, or using some stupid logics to explain your vendettas.
The last thing we want to see is ignorant people creating troubles for ourselves, which is the case in Malaysian politic today.
Fellow Malaysians, have faith in it, in everything you believe in.
It might not be as influencial as you expected.
You might just being overoptimistic on how you are able to achieve anything through the rally.
But still, you have came this far. Do not lose hope, do not surrender.
Give everything, but do not give in, and do not give up.
Dear our beloved and undeniably deadly corrupted government,
The rally does not mean to prove anything, besides ultimately asking and demanding for a fair election.
If you are threaten, it is rakyat themselves, who have proved to you that :'They have risen, Malaysia has arisen, democracy is awakening!!!'
How ironic it is for Malaysians overseas to feel even much safer to express their political views than those who are in Malaysia itself.
Where is the absolute right of freedom of speech conferred by our Federal Constitution?
Why are those who suppose to protect us, conversely, create fear out of us towards them?
Why are you always telling us not to compare with Singapore or any country better than us?
How could you still using Indonesian Chinese as a comparison to Malaysian Chinese today?
Why does our Deputy Prime Minster have the pride and dignity to announce to the world that his ethnic identity will always come before his nationality?
That is utter rubbish. An outright ridiculous and outrageous mindset.
If you do not wish us to compare Malaysia with any country which is more advance than us, do you honestly expect us to believe that Malaysia is running fine because the fact that we are better than a lot of third world countries today?
Can you genuinely get the satisfaction through your fabrication of facts?
You may think Malaysia is better than Indonesia today, but not for long.
It is just a matter of time for Indonesia, Philippines, Brunei which you previously much stronger than them long time ago, to overtake us.
We need civilisation, not contamination, anymore.
All these years, what have you done to my country?
You blame British 'divide and rule' policy, so tell me, what is the difference between your policy of unfair distribution and treatment of resources according to ethnic group than the British one?
Speaking about liberal and fairness,
Native Americans are indigenous people, but the State is today ruled by mostly white. No any races, even one, dare to claim their superior rights over the land. Because the State does not belong to white, black or anyone. It belongs to American, whatever colour your skin is, be it white, black, yellow or brown.
Today, an African American can proudly tell the world that he is American, so does a Chinese American, because they found the sense of belonging, the sense of recognition in their own country.
Sadly, as a Malaysian, I could not find it in our country today.
BERSIH is just a good start of democracy, please listen and observe, with heart about the vents and rants from rakyat.
God forbid, nothing serious will happen, no direct conflict between the polices, authorities and people.
For those who doubt their decision of going against the world to fight for your rights and let your voice to be heard. You're doing the right thing.
You are much better than anyone of us who is sitting in front of computer sharing, posting and commenting.
We'll stand for the vision of change. The time has come. This is the time. The time is now.
Power of people is formidable. Strength of unity is unbeatable. Morality is invincible.
Fellow Malaysian warriors and comrades worldwide, please be safe.
P/S: I may not be politically and statistically correct. I am just an ordinary person with an awkward and 'extra-ordinary' interest and identity - a Malaysian Chinese.
致大马人民，千万不要认为你一个微小力量起不了什么作用，不要认为大势集体示威很不合逻辑；也许最后是两败俱伤，也许最后落得尴尬难堪。可是至少，你今天狼藉地避开水枪催泪弹的同时，是腐败政府狼狈下台的前夕。
有人问我：“你可以肯定所有大马人都想换政府吗？净选盟可以代表多少个不大马人？你又怎样知道大多数人只不过是凑热闹而已？”
嗯，当然会有人不赞成这种盛况空前看起来似乎很像反政府的游行，可是请不要搞错，净选盟要的不是换政府，而是公平干净的投票机制。
净选盟没有反政府，也没有说可以代表大马人民。只要国阵政府可以在公平透明的大选制度下胜出，净选盟的目标就达到。
别人有权不赞同你，他没有错。你要去游行，不是，是静坐，你也没有错。
请不要理会否定你的他们，至少你有勇气，总好比很多人譬如我自己坐在电脑前share, post, comment 来得有用。至少如果有一天国家真的改变，你可以堂堂正正告诉自己的子孙你的威水史，好比那些反对示威然后坐享其成来得实际。
如果有一天，马来西亚成了今天的新加坡香港日本韩国台湾，你可以知到你自己当初，也就是今天，有多伟大。
他们可以认为你浪费时间，螳臂当车。请你坚信你的信念。
心中那团火，请不要熄灭。
因为，如果没有当时的Martin Luther King, Jr. 不会有今天的美国。
民主，不是一朝一夕可以造出来的。民主，不久后希望不会再是天荒谬谈。
你今天的一小步，将会是大马未来的一大步，为实现一个将来实实在在有名有实民主社会掀开新一页。
这一次，将会是马来西亚的民主制度，全世界的民主社会的其中一个重要里程碑。
它不是第一次，也不会是最后一次。
不过，请不要盲目反对，不要趁火打劫。净选盟要的，不是反政府，也不是支持反对党。
致政府，我们从来没有说过讨厌国阵。没有说要国阵下台。我们要的只是-谁腐败，谁退下。
净选盟肯从之前（去年）的游行改成静坐，证明他们没有造反还是扰乱治安的想法，连动机也没有。
在国外参与净选盟活动的大马子民反而比在国内在自己的领土上真正为自己国家奋斗的勇士们更有安全感， 真的很讽刺。
怎么职责是保护人民的警察，反而伤得人民最深？怎么应该确保听民声、知民情、解民忧的政府，却因为自己的地位和面子，反而造成国不泰民不安？
谈政策，小弟孤陋寡闻，可是我知道，美国土著是印第安人，今天由大部分白人统治。可是没有一种族敢说美国本来是属于自己的。因为美国不属于任何一种人，不是白人，不是黑人，而是美国人。
同样在马来西亚，土著不是马来人，华人抑或印度人。可是为什么政府硬是要把马来人变成土著来捏造事实？就算是事实，那你50年来有公平施政吗？如果有，为什么会造成真正的土著也站出来示威诉求的局面？
为什么连高高在上的副首相也不能先以大马人自居？
为什么每次都说不要和邻国新加坡作比较，因为他们面积小，然后又说相比起印尼华侨，大马华人已经很幸运了。
拜托，如果不拿比我们好的国家来比较，难道拿比我们差的不然？岂不是自欺欺人然后得到那些不知所谓不切实际的满足感？今天你可以说我们比印尼好，等着瞧吧，印尼超越我们，是迟早的事。
美国英国，就算世界典型地认为它们是白人国家，可是一个美国英国黑人可以士气高昂毫不犹豫自豪地告诉全世界他是美国英国公民，因为那个国家让他有一份归宿感。
至今，身为大马公民的我，很可惜，在自己的国家身上，找不到。
注：我不可以代表净选盟，更加不可以代表大马人民说话。我只是一个在国外为所有为大马未来奋斗的勇士们加油打气祷告的---大马子民。
