The people of Perak today said a resounding NO! to Najib's evil scheme to steal the state of Perak from right under their feet, with the connivance of Sultan Azlan Shah. Between 3,000-6,000 Perakians showed up to express their anger and disappointment at the uncouth way popular Mentri Besar Mohd Nizar Jamaluddin was dismissed and locked out of his office.

As usual, the Umno/BN regime's only response was to teargas the protesters, even though they were assembled in the compound of the Ubudiah Mosque. Nine people were arrested in the melee that erupted within view of the palace gates. Earlier, official limos arriving for the installation of BN's hand-picked Mentri Besar, Zambry Abdul Kadir, were greeted with loud jeers and thumbs-down gestures. A limo bearing the Perak royal insignia was reportedly pelted with stones. Some protesters attempted to block the official motorcade by lying across the road but were forcibly removed by the police.[Photos by Amiruddin and Malaysiakini]
Read Hannah Yeoh's view of the Perak coup d'etat on 5 February 2009.
From Malaysiakini.tv, 6 Feb 2009
Like father, like son. Najib's father staged a coup d'etat against a popular prime minister in 1969. It cost several hundred lives but the new Umno regime founded on blood became a "Second Reich" and lasted till 8 March 2008 when it would have been decimated at the polls were it not for postal and East Malaysian votes. It appears now that Najib, son of Razak, is set on initiating a "Third Reich" to resurrect a moribund Umno and protect himself against potential criminal charges ranging from massive corruption to complicity in cold-blooded murder.PERAK MUST NOT FAIL ~ by Wong Chin Huat
