3.15pm: Pudu - Police have agreed to give safe passage to the thousands of protesters assembled at Pudu up till Jalan Sultan on condition that they only use half of the road and march peacefully.The accord was met after Pakatan parliamentarians R Sivarasa and Ngeh Khoo Ham negotiated with the police, who also decided to allow the crowd to chant as they march.
resident.wangsamaju: I see this as a victory to BERSIH v2.0. The police has come to some sort of senses to allow such march after all the arrest and threats much earlier. Question is, why can't the authorities see reason much earlier? All these could have been avoided and the people would have had their time to voice their concern as accorded for in the constitution and the police would not be put in such a tight spot of playing the bad cop role while all these while allowing Najib to play the good cop's role. And since the rally has not yielded any unruly incidence, I guess, the police and government's fears were largely unfounded and call upon the authorities to release all those arrested in connection with BERSIH v2.0 rally without further delay.
