but STRONGLY SUPPORT the demands of the movement, my message is:
YOU DON'T NEED TO BE THERE TO CARE
Decorate your home and compound - like you do for the big festivals - but use yellow ribbons, paper streamers etc. Tie a yellow ribbon to your car antenna, wear yellow clothes, put a yellow flower in your hair. Think YELLOW
The mainstream media is slavishly spinning the rally as an opposition tactic to try and overthrow the government. This is NONSENSE.
Bersih 2.0 is a CIVIL SOCIETY movement - that means you and me. The people are calling on the Election Commission to clean up the electoral process. That's all!
I'm sure that none of the people who have pledged to walk with Bersih would really want to be spending their Saturday in this way, but, and it's a big BUT, they have been left with no alternative.
The unfettered corruption during the recent Sarawak elections clearly shows that the Election Commission HAVE NOT, and ARE NOT willing to take onboard the people's complaints and demands.
Please make sure that the people you interact with, who rely on the mainstream media for their information, are made aware of the real reason why hundreds of thousands of peace-loving Malaysians from around the world will be giving up their Saturday.
