Protest gain assurance

The Nut Graph interview with Khairy (PM's Son in Law)

Q : In the reports, it sounded like you were encouraging the demonstrators to resort to whatever action they wanted to in order to prevent Nizar and his Exco from entering the state secretariat. Isn't that just encouraging thuggish behaviour?


A : "Not unless you believe the demonstrators were thugs to begin with. When I said "use whatever means necessary" I took it that the members of the rally knew that when push comes to shove, they would not disobey the law. Their anger stemmed from PR's transgression of the principles of Rukunegarato begin with, one of which is "kedaulatan undang-undang" or sanctity of the law.

Furthermore, after my speech the Ipoh OCPD asked me not to instruct our boys to be present at the state secretariat when
Nizar and his colleagues showed up over the next few days. The OCPD gave an assurance that the police would not allow them (Nizar et al) in.

When I received the OCPD's assurance, I promptly instructed the head of Perak Umno Youth to stand down since there was no need to be at the state secretariat."

Khairi presence in Ipoh with the UMNO youths was nothing but to further strengthen his role in UMNO. The UMNO elections is due next month where in Khairi is contesting for the UMNO youth Presidents posts. He has come to Ipoh to exhibit some wayang kulit to all.

But if the 1000 odd people who attended his organised protest was done by the Pakataan Rakyaat both tear gas and water canon would have used to disperse the illegal gathering.

Last week DAP youth lodged a police report against Khairi for hold the illegal gathering at MBI grounds. When will the police take action against him?

Is this SOB stupid? Does he expect a bunch of "Mat Rempits" to act within the law. Mr.Graduate, you are not the only one with brains. Stop twisting your words. Be a man and admit what you said and the meaning of your words. We had enough of your rubbish.
