Anwar is now released but the nation is abuzz with want of his blood sample. The cat and mouse game between Anwar and the powers that be is too much for the average man on the street. I met an old friend of mine and we were not talking about us when we met. Inevitably ever so often out discussion veered towards Anwar and the injustice that have befallen him for a decade now and there seems to be still no light at the end of the tunnel.
What happened to the blood sample taken during the 1998 sodomy fiasco? What is the need to draw fresh blood?
And what is to become fo RPK ? As a blogger rightly pointed out, it seems like a one man's fight against the masses and RPK is going against the waves. What is to become of him?
While the police has its hand full with Anwar and RPK, the average citizens of Malaysia are suffering the consequences.
I was in UH on 14 July to do my MRI for which i waited for seven months and I was asked to be at the Xray dept by 7.30am on the dot as there were patients back-to-back. I made it by 7.25am as I was against peak traffic. However my procedure was delayed by half hour as the medical assitants arrived late and subsequently other staff were arriving later and later caused by the road blocks.
We could only stand and watch the nation's resources being depleted by people in power. The police blocks for a fact an act of intimidation and not particularly to thwart the demonstrations- if there were any. If the Anwar was the issue, the police should have erected blocks around his house and not at all entry points leading to the city. This reminds of a man destroying a whole lot of forest to kill a single mosquito.
Another friend asked me what i thought of the country's political scenario now and i said a good disinfectant was critically needed.
