Anwar dah mai kat Dataran Merdeka, Najib ada beranikah...

Selepas perkhemahan pelajar memprotes PTPTN di Dataran Merdeka diserang oleh samseng tahi minyak upahan, Ketua Pembangkang yang bakal menjadi PM Anwar Ibrahim turun ke dataran itu untuk melihat perkhemahan itu dan memberi semangat dan sokongan.

Setelah empat malam pelajar bermukim di situ Anwar baru turun menjenguk bersama timbalan presdien PKR Mohamed Azmin Ali. Kehadiran Anwar menberi suntikan semangat baru kepada kumpulan aktivis pelajar itu. Khabarnya malam tadi lebih 1,000 orang mengunjungi perkhemahan sambil memberi pelbagai sokongan dan bantuan berupakan makanan dan sebagainya.

Sebelum ini tidak beberapa ramai pemimpin PKR turun memberi sokongan. Begitu juga di pihak Pas beberapa pemimpin kecil atau pemimpin budak mereka ikut sama turun ke dataran merdeka. Pemimpin besar sekali belum turun. Bagaimana pun tidak jelas apakah ada pemimpin DAP ikut sama turun dan memberi kata-kata semangat.

Mungkin DAP berhati-hati untuk turun secara nyata bimbang takut dikaitkan dengan perkauman kerana jumlah pelajar berbangsa Cina ramai mengambil bahagian dalam perkhemahan protes itu. Dan kalau pun pemimpin politik Pakatan Rakyat tidak menonjol dengan protes itu tidak menjadi kesalahan, kerana apa yang berlaku itu adalah atas inisiatif para pelajar itu sendiri. Mereka menutut hak atau memperjuangkan isu yang ada kaitan dengan golongan mereka.

Bagaimana pun aktiviti mereka ada kaitan dengan Pakatan Rakyat tidak boleh dinafikan. Pemansuhan PTPTN untuk meringankan bebanan pelajar dan ibubapa yang miskin dibangkitkan oleh Pakatan Rakyat. Mereka (pelajar) hanya menyambung dan terus membangkitkan isu itu saja. Sekiranya isu itu tidak relevan dengan mereka, mereka tidak 'ngo' (tolol dan bengong) untuk melakukan protes itu sampai ada yang tercedera.

Sebenarnya isu PTPTN bukan hak mana-mana pihak. Bukan hak Pakatan Rakyat, bukan hak Pas atau PKR ataupun DAP. Tetapi hak semua. Ia juga merupakan isu atau perkara yang perlu difikirkan oleh UBN. Tidak timbul di sini kalau Pakatan Rakyat hendak berniaga dengan isu itu. Kerana UBN juga boleh pertahankan mengenai kemunasabahan isu-isu berkenaan dan sekaligus menjadikan modal untuk menang pilihan raya.


Makanya apabila mahasiswa itu diserang oleh samseng tahi minyak upahan, Umno perlu ikut memberi perhatian kepada perkhemahan itu. Umno juga berhak untuk bertanya khabar mengenai apa yang berlaku. Dalam apa juga keadaan para pelajar berkenaan adalah warganegara ini yang menjadi tanggungjawab kerajaan memelihara keselamatan dan kedaulatannya sebagai warga sebuah negara.- Mohd Sayuti Omar,msomelayu blogspot

Festival mood grips Dataran after student attack...

Determined not to allow a repeat of Thursday’s incident where students camping in Dataran Merdeka were attacked by thugs, some 500 activists and supporters descended on the square last night in a carnival-like atmosphere.

The students, whose 10 tents were destroyed in the attack, set up some 12 news ones on top of 30 more in store donated with goodwill from the public.


NONEAside from tents, the students who entered their sixth night of protest demanding free education and a waiver of PTPTN loans also received food such as nasi lemak, mee and biscuits from the public.

Business operators, too, did not miss out as they took advantage in the spike in crowd to sell Bersih 3.0 T-shirts and other merchandise.

However, Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim proved to be a crowd puller as he visited the students in a show of support.

Speaking to the crowd, Anwar condemned the violent attack on the students as a case of brawn over brains.

“When invited to debate, they do not want but instead they use force to attack others,” he said, but did not specify who he was alluding to.


NONEWhen asked about claims that he was part of the cabinet as then deputy prime minister to pass the PTPTN loan scheme, Anwar (left) said the issue is providing education for the poor.

"For the super rich, it is not an issue for their children but for children from poor families, it (PTPTN) is an issue.

"My duty is to take care of the rakyat as the whole, not the billionaires and towkays," he said.

 

Anwar who arrived at around 10.40pm wore a bright yellow Bersih 3.0 cap and autographed one of the students’ tent.
 

PAS Unit Amal in force

However, another figure that was able to equally steal the limelight was “Najib”, a two-foot monkey that was brought in by a student supporter.

Skeptical at first, the crowd was astonished as the monkey responded when its owner addressed it as “Najib”.


NONESome from the crowd gave the monkey a gentle pat while another gave it a Bersih 3.0 T-shirt to put on.

On top of the carnival-like crowd, some 45 PAS Unit Amal officers clad in their trademark maroon T-shirt were also present to ensure the students’ safety.


In the early morning attack on Thursday, eight people were injured, including a police officer and a businessman.


While the students are adamant on continuing to camp at Dataran Merdeka until the Bersih 3.0 on April 28, they are expected to temporarily move out to make way for the royal concert tomorrow in celebration of the installation of the Agong.


However, the fate of the Bersih 3.0 remains unclear as Kuala Lumpur mayor Ahmad Fuad has rejected the movement’s intent to host a sit-in protest at Dataran Merdeka.


“Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has received six applications from various groups to hold rallies at Dataran Merdeka until April 29. All of them have been rejected.


“For Bersih, DBKL is prepared to consider an application for a substitute location under the jurisdiction of DBKL to hold its rally,” he said in an text message to Malaysiakini.




 DBKL okays three tents at Dataran, says student...

Students demanding free education who are occupying Dataran Merdeka for the seventh day today said Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has allowed them to set up three tents, even though the royal concert there tomorrow night will go on.
 

The three tents, said Bangkit Malaysia chairperson Mohd Syahid Zaini, will be to store their necessities and donations the students have been receiving throughout their stay at Dataran Merdeka.

"But we will make way for the royal concert tomorrow night, out of respect (for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong).

"We will not hold any event on Saturday. We will remain there but no tent, other than the three, will be set up," Syahid said.

The open-to-public concert at Dataran Merdeka tomorrow is to celebrate the installation of the country's 14th Agong.- malaysiakini
