A dark day has descended

Sadness, despair and lost. The heart yearns for hope yet where hope is, no one knows. The minute trust invested in man has now been proven to be an exercise in futility.

I am sadden by the state of our country. I am sadden when desperate people are put in prison because their words are deemed seditious. Yet, seditious as it might be, why can't our Government trust in the justice system to run its course? Where is the concept of innocent until proven guilty? Where is justice if there is no representation, where there is no trial?

A dark day has descended. Another has been cast aside and yet the silence of our hope is deafening. Brothers have betrayed brothers and courage of men have failed. Oh how dark and how long is the shadow of evil. The counselor we trust is now our harbinger of evil. Snares have been set and the end is nigh to all who stands and fight for justice and truth.








A dark and sad day indeed.








To our brave Malaysians now serving their unjust sentence in Kamunting, I can only offer my prayers. The following lyrics from the song, May it be by Enya, are dedicated to all of you, P.Uthayakumar, M. Manoharan, R. Kenghadharan, V. Ganabatirau and T. Vasanthakumar. You have done all you can and it is now for the rest of the people to continue.

May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now


May it be the shadows call

Will fly away

May it be you journey on

To light the day

When the night is overcome

You may rise to find the sun

Mornie utúlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

A promise lives within you now
