One of a hell experience

It was suppose to be a shopping trip.. but ends up to be a really eye opener incident. I guess, we would only stop talking bout it when we are bored with ourselves then. lol.

Fredonia, Shoni and I went to Petaling Street yesterday. Our main motive is to buy some accessories stuff for our polymer project but end up being one of the Bersih 2.0 supporters. My mom gonna kill me if she knew this. My heart was 50-50 when Fredonia and Shoni told me that they are really going to the march. My rebellious and curios mind told me to go but then again I really scared that I might got caught or worst, hurt.

I guess my rebellious self are much stronger. So, we end up wander around the street, waiting for the awesome moment to start. Before the rally start, fifi says, "If anything happen to one of us, don't bother and run for your life". She was really serious but I find it really funny. Just like the HK drama kind of situation. I guess we were too nervous.

Approximately one something, while we were having our leong sui moment, we heard a group of people chanting while marching. We decide to follow the crowd to have a closer look. We reach somewhere in front of the Menara Maybank. Chopper(s) are all above us. The crowds got bigger and bigger. We wander around and before we realized, we actually standing at the centre of the crowd where all the "bigger people" are located.

From the crowd, I heard people shouts, "Cepat naik cepat naik.. semua perempuan, kanak2x naik". We were being pushed in and basically standing at the Menara Maybank escalator. From there I can see those police already fired water cannon. Shoni and I remain stagnant while Fredonia went down the escalator to have a better view. And then, I heard a loud bang and smoke starts to flow to our direction. My eyes are so painful and I can hardly breath. I only heard Shoni asked me not to look back, close my eyes and keep on moving. When we were about to reach the top escalator, a freaking fat ass women guard doesn't allow us to pass through even we beg here desperately. With no choice, we have to jump over the escalator and run towards the nearest building. It was pretty tall to both of us. But in desperate measure, I can't do logical reasoning but just to jump over and run for my life. I managed to run but I noticed Shoni wasn't following me. I got panic and then saw Fredonia. I told her Shoni no where to be seen. We must go back to find her. And then at the moment, the clumsy Shoni appeared. Really thank God that she is ok. If not I might feel guilty for the rest of my life to dump her to rot to death. lol. While I barely can open my eyes and breath properly, someone offer us salt. It seems that by consuming the salt, we might feel better. When we manage to get to the toilet, I keep on washing my face and eyes with water. It was terrible. Scary. Helpless.

At the moment like this, you can meet kind hearted people and heartless people. While we were hiding inside the toilet, some heartless guard must walk in and shouted as us to leave immediately. Why must he shout? Why can't he told us to leave properly? Why must they treat helpless people like this? Just because we doesn't share the same thought we can be treated like this? This is absolutely outrages.

We were sitting at the staircase. I saw a bunch of police chasing after a group of people. Catch as much as you can as I believe it will not deter the rest of the real supporters to back off.

It starts to rain outside... To ease the rakyat from the suffering gas perhaps...

When the rain ease down, we thought that we have enough for the day and it's time to leave. Unfortunately, all the LRTs nearby are closed. We got no choice to to walk from one station to another. Meantime, we met one of photographer and he showed us that the police fired tear gas to the innocent protestor, without warning. Those people just sitting peacefully on the street, chanting. Do they deserve that? Why are gomen hurting the rakyat like this and yet they claimed that they are protecting them? I can't see how this kind of attitude is helping any of us. Really pathetic.

If anyone ever ask me if I would join the rally again, I would not hesitate anymore. I am a MALAYSIAN and I have the damn rights to speak.
