Yesterday’s PJ vigil was supposed to be a celebration, POT Luck style. I arrived at 8 after dinner with KKLim at restaurant nearby, and we bring along two boxes of mandarin oranges. By that time, many people has gathered and i have to say, all the people here never disappoint me, many still come even after last week’s show of power by the police, and many bring along foods and drinks. Kak Laila also came to celebrate with us.

If you miss yesterday’s vigil, here is some of the stuff we paraded on the floor for our Pot Luck.

Mandarin oranges (few boxes), KFC, Domino’s pizza, the big pot there is fried mee, cookies, cakes, haven’t include the loads of lemang brought back by our Barisan Rakyat team.

Around 8.20pm, our heroes & heroine came back from Kuala Terengganu in the blue van. Everyone rushed up to thank them, for all the hard works at KT.

By the time we get over with the excitement and joys accepting our Barisan Rakyat Bloggers back, i found that we were surrounded by the police. Yes, basically the police just sneaked in while were focusing on BR bloggers.

If weeks before, those SB were just taking pictures of participants, this week, the SB even took pictures of the foods & drinks (for what???), and he had to thank those police for guarding our food.

The police came in and again declared our gathering is ILLEGAL. We already have the permission to use place by MBPJ, so how can this be illegal? Peter called me up few days earlier asking whether we should apply for a permit, but in the end, we both agreed that we don’t need a permit. If we were to apply for a permit, that would be to held it at Padang Timur, because we were inside MBPJ there’s no reason for a permit. Why should we gave in when we fully understood that we didn’t break any law? and if granted with a permit, we were not allowed to light candles, so why gave them another reason to said we broke the law?

Heated arguments followed :

Haris, RPK, Zorro and co asked for the police for reasons, but the police NEVER listen, all they do is screaming through the loud hailer “THIS IS ILLEGAL, DISPERSE OR WE WILL USE FORCE”

We know we couldn’t reason out with those stone who would never listen to us, we pack back our food and drinks, even then, they declared we have another 30 seconds before they come at us. This is just another show of their power and arrogance towards we peaceful people.

We regroup at the Lotus and begin paraded back our food and drinks while the police were still watchful every of our move, like we are criminals.

Haris busy open up the lemang.

and we learn another way to get the lemang, by shaking it “shake it, shake it”

Before this, the government proposed to have experts to help the people on race and religions, but all the government have to do is actually to do what we all do. Everyone of us were so close like a big family, where is race? Where is religion? Never once did we mention it nor care about it. If unity is what the government seek, look no where else, it’s here, right on this land, the people of Malaysia have already unite, the only thing that stirs it was the faked relations between BN, MCA and MIC. The way to unite the people is LESS politicize, don’t campur tangan in the people and we’ll get along very well.

Apparently, the police is still not satisfied with chasing us out, they send some traffic police and begin dishing out SAMAN ticket to cars parked by the roadside beside Lotus. We alarmed car owners before they were issued with the ticket, and eventually the police can only stare at us:

Do we care? NO, we continue to enjoy our food!!

If you missed yesterday’s Pot Luck, you miss a lot of warm shown by more than 100 of us, although the police came and show off their power but there’s nothing that can put us down, our spirit and most importantly the true warm expression shown by everyone, the true Muhibah spirit by the true Malaysian.
