VOXPOP 'Puan Mariam has made a courageous stand and sets an example for many others to follow her daring commitment to any fight against the ruling party's excesses.'

Mum-in-law proud of injured student

Wira: Has anyone of you seen any injury among demonstrators who are pro-establishment, no matter how racist or religiously bigot their demonstrations may be?

If we have not, then I believe the students more than the police.

Tok Selapit: Bravo Kak Mariam Abdul Rashid, Mohd Safwan Anang and wife, and may Allah bless you all. Amin.

Time2vote: Puan Mariam has made a courageous stand and sets an example for many others to follow her daring commitment to any fight against the ruling party's excesses. GE13 will deliver the verdict for all Malaysians.

So do not be fence-sitters. Come out and be one with at least a reason for change, changing the ruling party for the good of Malaysia.

Just to be clear to all, I am not a member of any particular political party and I will vote for any party that goes against corruption and upholds justice.

Simon Lee 3ed5: In any culture, whether black or white, we'll surely find traitors and corrupt vermin and snakes of the same colour flocking together, condemning these patriots and the nation's heroes.

Even Mahatma Gandhi, a patriot, a pious Hindu and man of God who never even hurt a fly, was murdered by a Hindu. The nation is proud of these sons of Malaysia standing up for all Malaysians.

Thank you so much for your courage and sacrifices. The rakyat is most honoured and proud to have these courageous women and children taking on the brutal force of the corrupt in power. May Allah bless and protect you all. Peace.

T Sundaram: It is not necessary that the cops lie. Just watch the video and you guys will know the truth. This mother-in-law is just another opposition member, instigating the situation.

There is nothing in this to Umno or BN. You are just creating a grave situation for Malaysia by using these students, and DSAI (Anwar Ibrahim) knows that very well.

Anonymous_4182: Those who condemn the students who are fighting for what they believe is a right cause for their Malaysia obviously have personal interest.

There are those who cannot see beyond their nose that the country can be better if government policies are drawn up by lawmakers looking after the public interest.

With rampant corruption and the fear of losing in GE13, it surprises no one the tough measure the government is taking against any demonstration

These are grown-up university students and are well-read. They are the future of Malaysia. Treating them like criminals won't do.

Anonymous_4056: Puan Mariam, please accept my salutations to you and to all those students who stood up for their rights.

In fact, all Malaysian university students should stand up with one voice to fight for their rights. Don't be timid and live in fear of the Umno-led BN goverment.

Alan Goh: Puan Mariam, don't you think that 54 years of abuses and corruption under Umno/BN is enough?

What made the police force to behave like thugs when they set upon the students who were holding a peaceful demonstration?

Do you see the police man-handling Perkasa or the Penang mamak, who take to the streets every other day? Ingat-lah , Puan Mariam and vote ABU (Anything But Umno).

Keturunan Malaysia: Mariam Abdul Rashid, kau steady lah ! Kito gomo Mariam... gomo !

KW Mark: We, the Malaysians. are all proud of Safwan's brave action too, Puan Mariam. May he get well soon and continue with his struggle for a better Malaysia. Terima kasih to your daughter and son-in-law. Salam

Akucina: We are proud of him too, Puan Mariam. He will go down in history, just like Adam Adli and the rest of the right-thinking university students who advocate the right to think.

Malaysianstudent: Too bad she and I can't say the same for our police force.

Four arrested over pig skulls found outside mosque

Anon99: So efficient. Good job. Unlike the cow's head incident in Shah Alam, where the police took a long time to arrest the perpetrators, even there was video evidence.

Bluemountains: You seemed to have already arrested the culprits, so why are you still asking eyewitnesses to come forward? Or are you still not sure if you have arrested the correct persons?

Rick Teo: Pakatan is on the cusp of going to Putrajaya so there is no need to put pig skulls in the Johor masjid. This is definitely an act by Umno to sow discord so there will be another May 13.

But it is unlikely to work because the people are smarter now. Yes, Umno is so desperate to cling to power that they are prepared to resort to all types of schemes to create havoc.
