No matter what had happened, anti-ISA candlelight vigil at Dataran Merdeka last night was a success. It was truly overwhelming because less and less concerned citizens are afraid of the oppressors.

PAS Youth Chief, Salahuddin Ayub told me, “Look! People are not afraid of the police. They are here despite all the warning and barricades”.

They can lit off the candles of the oppressed with their water canon, but can they lit off the spirit of the oppressed?
