Yesterday morning, I joined Lim Kit Siang, Thomas Su and other DAP leaders at Pasir Pinji market, in donning a T-shirt emblazoned with ‘Free Teresa, Abolish ISA’ in a protest against the detention of all ISA detainees. Last night, the same was supposed to be carried by the local leaders in Jelapang, in a series of protests to show our solidarity against indiscriminate detention under the draconian ISA. I offered to give up the T-shirt to be used by others but was told to keep it and preferably wear it as often as possible.
Today, about 2 pm my friend texted me the good news, that Teresa has been released. Besides being glad about the fact, I cannot help thinking the T-shirt will look silly on me now! Anyway, there are still many more detainees, the most prominent being Raja Petra and the Hindraf 5, who deserve our support in calling for their release.
