In my opinion, this just happened. That's how BN came into power.  I cannot believe what I read today and the pictures I saw. Totally no regard for the law (what law?). If the Speaker can be forcibly removed and dragged to ligitimize the BN state government, what democracy are we having? 

It is just sad ;-(, bordering to ridicilous, when the entire city is locked down, people dressed black are arrested, law-makers (opposition, of course), gets arrested, the lists goes on..........when can we get back to governing, getting the economy back on track or even improving our education system.  Some say, we get the government we deserve.
