Here lies Nanyang , conscience of the Malaysians, betrayed and stabbed in the back by the body politic.

Here lies a true voice of the Malaysians, choked and strangled by the liars and benders of truth.

Here lies a spirit of democracy, trampled by the powers that be.

Here lies a beautiful thing, debased by fish-heads and hapraks (idiots).

She was a window to a better tomorrow, smashed by unthinking, unfeeling brutes.

She need not have died; she does not deserve this death. When is telling it as it is a capital crime?

So that she does not die in vain, my countrymen, let us bury the perpetrators of this crime in 2004. Let us consign them to history, the feudal ages, where they belong.

If there is anything she has taught us, it is this:

We shall not be the dumb beasts and yes-men they want us to be. We shall have our voice back, our conscience and our democracy. We shall refuse to kowtow to fish-heads and hapraks . For we, the people, are the masters. Let us put lying and thieving servants in their places. Sack them, throw them out.

Here lies Nanyang , Lady of Liberty.

May she rest in peace, for now,

To be resurrected in 2004.
