Hmmm….never get the invitation? It was well documented in MK that it was send by the 5 year old girl. Slow “delivery system” :)

Anyway, its his prerogative to attend or not.

PM: Why should I attend?

Roses will be the symbolic medium used to appeal for Abdullah to heed the demands. Two letters have been submitted to the prime minister’s office last month, inviting the premier to receive the roses.

Abdullah however have denied receiving any invitations and said that he will not attend any event.

“What for? Why should I attend any event?” he said when asked by a reporter at a press conference held after chairing Umno’s Supreme Council meeting on election preparations yesterday.

Commenting on this, Manickavsagam said that even though Abdullah cannot attend, he should send a representative to receive the roses.

In the meantime, Manickavasagam said that they are expecting that the police to obtain a restriction order to prevent them from gathering and also to give the police rights to arrest participants. “We expect arrests tomorrow but we are prepared. As far as we are concerned, arresting us in front of the children will only tarnish their reputation nationally, and internationally,” he commented.

Apart from the 18-point demands, is also seeking the release of its leaders and legal advisers who have been detained under the Internal Security Act since Dec 13 last year. Among them are Waythamoorthy’s brother, Uthayakumar.

    somewhat expected . He knows the people made him a loser . So he is embarrassed to meet them . Well , that’s the fact . He thinks those Indians emotionally attached to Hindraf are merely opposition supporters and just handful of the community . Similarly , SV said his supporters are at home not on street .
    As far as i’ve seen , except some BN party members(MIC…etc) and some civil servants , majority are actually supporting Hindraf though just handful came down to the rally . I’ve heard housewives , in the interval of watching tele-dramas , talking about the courage of Hindraf .

    So those BN leaders are indeed losers . Besides , those loyal MIC pets whom i’ve seen were spread across blogs to brainwash Hindraf supporters are also fall under the same bucket ! Though they argue , argue ,argue and argue do we see anyone falling into their traps ?

    Well done ! STAY UNITED , importantly STAY IGNITED !!!

    It was to be expected by BN and especially MIC clowns who seem to be scared by their own shadows. For all their bravado they are aware if given even a little opportunity to Hindraf, the BN would lose some more votes.

    AAB won’t have the moral courage to face the children, their parents and supporters when he did not hesitate to use the ISA to shore up the dwindling election fortunes of the MIC.

    It is not some small peaceful gathering that is causing the people lot of hardship and inconvenience. It is the indiscriminate abuse of police power by throwing road blocks on highways and busy arterial roads leading into the city.

    Who is intimidating and frightening the people of dire consequences if the MIC is not given the mandate to dictate terms for a few more decades? It is not Hindraf.

    As a PM he should know value of children and also their feeling. If he refused means that he is not a good leader and also not gentlemen.
    Normally people will say that children and ” god ” is same but here for both of this also no value . Go to held bluddy cowards.

    frenz , this Jebat simply a joker . Why he has to be angry with Hindraf . Where were his balls when Refomasi took it’s pace years ago . Well are those in Refomasi all Indians ? This Jebat simply a joker .
    he should have gotten hell lots of privileged projects which made a warrior defending umno so he dun bother the grouses of non-umno related Malays and moderate chinese/Indians .
    He also dun know that many chinese i know are against BN just because the arrogant umno-putra .
    Too bad the joker doesnt know that Hang Jebat is historically a chinese .
    this Jebat simply a joker !
