Last night I attended a talk organised by SUARAM..It is a NGO advocating and fighting for better human rights in Malaysia.
Now shame all those that went out clubbing for ladies night..Do you guys know that there are bigger and greater issue in this world?
Punch...Punch..Don't be a hypocrite lah..Did I mention i was 'influenced' to attend? I also wish i was in the clubs partying...hehe...
But seriously it was an enlightening talk for two reason
1) There are people out there that actually work for a greater and larger purpose or ideal than themselves... I salute them
2) People actually take the effort to attend...
The title of the forum was......

There were 5 speakers that provided a very detailed and balanced analysis of the state Constitution of Terengganu, the historical institution of the monarchy and the legal and moral justification of the Sultan's action
Now you guys must be thinking WTF?.....
In simple terms a very good forum and very good discussions
Claud was listening attentively....
While i was playing with my camera...
One of the photo's freaked me out...

look carefully..SHUTTER!!!
No lah i actually paid full concentration as he speakers were well versed with the law and the concept of a constitutional monarchy... The speakers Malik Imtiaz (prominent Human Rights lawyer), Gobind Singh Deo(MP for Puchong), Professor Dr. Syed Bari (Profesor of law), Dr. syed Hussain Ali (Deputy President of PKR)and Dzulkifli Ahmad (MP for Kuala Selangor)
But it does not mean it has to be boring...
Notable jokes
Gobind Singh Deo...The assemblymen of Terengganu were crying after they decided the new MB should be the ADUN from Kijang and not Idris Jusoh...Why them crying is such a big deal?..Previously we in DAP have always been crying after every election..
Dr. Syed Hussain Ali..I loved his speech as it was very practical and balanced..not to mention funny

There are 30 monarchs in the world and 33.3% percent of them are in Malaysia...
In conclusion it was very enlightening and you can learn a lot with regard how this speaker attack an issue from different angles..I believe we must always keep an open mind to every issue and never closed ourselves from intellectual discussion..We may not need to be political but always understand your rights...
