我们一直以来都被政府通过各大主流媒体进行全天候洗脑教育:大集会会引起动乱,破坏人民安宁的生活,所以大家千万不能支持大集会。
可是,一场112“人民崛起”大集会,却为执政者好好上了一堂课:谁说大集会一定会乱?
逾10万人走上街头、五彩缤纷的人潮淹没了默迪卡体育馆内外,我们只感受到嘉年华般的欢庆气氛,而没有丝毫肃杀暴戾之气。10万人兴致勃勃地前来、10万人心满意足地回去,有生意头脑的商家还善用人潮发了一笔集会财。马华公会一早印好的那些“要稳定不要乱”的传单海报,恐怕得搬回蔡总的老家去垫脚了。
112人民崛起大集会的意义,不只在于有多少人走出来发出他们铿锵有力的诉求,更在于人民以行动粉碎了当权者对人民集会的妖魔化。
如果当权者还剩余一丁点反省的能力,应该问一问自己:为何警方这次以最少的警力来应付最大批的人潮,却没有发生任何骚乱或冲突?709净选盟2.0大集会及428黄绿大集会所出现的骚乱事件,到底是因为人民不自制,还是执法者不专业?
当然,我不敢奢望高高在上的国家领袖会有卑恭自省的能力,这一点大家可以从他们在112集会之后所发出的各种嘲讽、贬低、甚至抹黑的回应中一目了然。
顺手拈来的就有马华总会长蔡细历讲了N次的“大集会不能解决问题”。以蔡总的智慧,毕竟不能强求他明白正是因为政府无法解决人民的问题,所以大家才要出席大集会的道理。
雪州国阵秘书莫哈末再因也不甘落后,嘲讽10万人潮中有80巴仙是党工。80巴仙也就是8万人,我好奇的是,民联尚未执政中央竟然就可以动员到8万个人来当党工,那么国阵不是更应该害怕吗?
为国阵服务的文棍们则卖力地为这场跨越种族的大集会抹上种族主义的色彩,亲巫统的文棍们抨击安华分裂马来人;亲马华的文棍则莫名其妙地炒作“人民崛起,华人也崛起了吗?”
当然,还有更多国阵附庸党的领袖和党营媒体的编辑们把焦点转移在大力吹捧警察居功至伟,成功确保大集会和平进行。警方这次的表现确实值得一赞,正是因为他们肯乖乖让路、没有再动手动脚,所以才没有发生任何暴力事件。
有人百思不解,既然民怨已经如雪球般越滚越大,为何这些政棍文棍还要讲这些话来火上添油?这些人并非脑筋出问题,而是因为执政了太久而与民意严重脱节。
大集会之所以办了一场又一场,出席人数一场比一场多,不在于反对党或民间团体的号召力越来越强,而在于当权者从来没有正视人民诉求的议题,也因此而一次又一次地错失了疏解民怨的契机。

Gatherings is part of a democratic system of government. People has their eligible right to gather and freedom of speech but basically needs to comply with restricted rules and sensitive issues. With the amendment of ISA and the introduction of Peace gathering act, Malaysian hence first experienced so called 112 people peace gatherings at Dataran Merdeka. It was a successful and peace and orderly gatherings by people from all walks of life to demonstrate their feelings and appeals of changes in various aspect that faced by the nation over these years.
Hundred of thousand Malaysian walked under the hot sun from all corners of city to gather at Dataran Merdeka as their destination for which a new history must be written. 27 rules and conditions were put up by the enforcement unit in such a grand event with handful armed forces standby to regulate flow of people. No tankers or Fru units were found in surrounding places. Above all credits must be given to organisers for having set up commandors in each stream and well behave of fellow Malaysian to proof that we loved peace and harmony and capable to restore order without interference and 'black hands'.
We hope democracy could be extended and be respectful to human rights under the stipulated laws.

除了研究華人有否崛起,他對出席人數也自有另一番邏輯。
人數少就揶揄一番。人數多的時候就說一堆“以比拼人數彰顯自己的正義”之類的話。
Thiam Teck,
主子叫他写什么他不就写什么咯,评论圈内谁不懂他是蔡家头号文胆?
