CNN really got this wrong, and comes to prove that sometimes, reporters do not get it right with news!
Go read this article about HINDRAF in Malaysia!
For those who don't know why HINDRAF had their rally: it was because they were demanding the Queen to set up a committee into inquiring and perhaps compensating every Indian that was brought over from India to Malaysia as laborers. As much as US 1 million per person is hoped to be given as compensation. Local news on this matter can be found here.

probably my most fav appetizer
grown up, but still with the occasional whine...
No longer a student
All grown up is the new title. Thought it was time for a change. I can't stay young forever, and despite the famous spiderman saying of, "With power comes great responsibility", I believe what's more appropriate is, "With age comes great responsibility". Time to move on, and grow up.

hm, i think its right tho.. it started off with the hindraf thing against the queen, because they feel it's the british fault that they're now underpriviledged, and malaysia isn't taking care of their welfare i.e. not same rights as malays... then that peaceful demonstration got banned... then the police started attacking them.. then now they're rallying for their equal rights.. also sparked off cuz of their temples being demolished.. was watching the leader for the demonstration thing saying all that on youtube... i think so anyway^^
haha. okay. thanks sandy :)
