00:00Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotpoint website.
00:30A group called Rakyat Benci Raswa, an organization that hates corruption,
00:34held a anti-corruption rally on Saturday, January 25.
00:39The rally will start from the state-owned enterprises in Kuala Lumpur and the shopping mall Sogo,
00:43and go all the way to the Independence Square.
00:46But the rally was asked by the government
00:48that you must first get permission from the venue owner before you can start.
00:52Although everyone must be familiar with such a rally route,
00:56the government had never done such a rally before.
00:58In the days when the government was in full swing,
01:02the government often took such a rally route.
01:05However, after the police received a notice from the people's anti-corruption organization
01:08to hold a rally,
01:10they pointed out that the rally did not include the agreement of the venue owner.
01:15Therefore, the rally was regarded as an illegal rally,
01:18and urged the public not to participate.
01:20The spokesman for the United Government,
01:22Secretary of the Interior, Saifuddin,
01:24expressed his dissatisfaction with the police's statement.
01:26According to the Peace Rally Law,
01:28the relevant rallies must first obtain permission from the venue owner of Sogo
01:31and the Independence Square before they can hold a rally.
01:35However, for the statement of the police and the United Government,
01:38human rights lawyer Liang Xinyou issued a legal provision on the X platform,
01:42indicating that the government's statement is absolutely wrong.
01:45He explained that in 1976, the local government law
01:48defined public places as places provided for public use,
01:52such as open spaces, parking lots, gardens, entertainment venues,
01:55amusement parks, or squares, etc.
01:58As you can see, anyone can enter the Independence Square at any time.
02:03So this is why the Independence Square anti-corruption rally
02:07does not require the consent of the venue owner or the manager.
02:11Any reason to refuse the organizer of the rally
02:15is a legal error.
02:17Lawyer Liang Xinyou hopes that the government can correct the error.
02:20Today, the two members of the Action Party
02:22also jumped out and opposed the police and the government
02:25from banning this anti-corruption rally.
02:27The Action Party urged the government
02:30that if the anti-corruption rally is banned or suppressed this Saturday,
02:34Xi's reputation will be severely affected.
02:37Such a decision will only make supporters feel disappointed
02:40and even cause unnecessary political rebellion.
02:43He said that the Peace Rally is a basic right of democracy.
02:46The organizer of the anti-corruption rally is just fulfilling this right.
02:50Banning the rally or taking action against the organizer
02:53will only make the people doubt whether the government
02:56really wants to protect the core values of democracy.
02:59Zhou Yuhui, a member of the Action Party's Labor Party,
03:02said that he was quite shocked
03:04when he was told that the anti-corruption rally
03:07he held this Saturday was illegal.
03:09Because in 2012, the government abolished Article 27 of the police law,
03:13which abolished the right of the police
03:16to regulate rallies, meetings, and demonstrations.
03:19In fact, the police no longer have the right to stop people's rallies,
03:22and they can no longer declare a rally as illegal
03:25and then arrest the organizer.
03:27He also questioned the police's request
03:29that the organizer of the rally must first obtain the consent of the owner.
03:32This is even more puzzling.
03:34He said that because the rally was held in a public place,
03:37not a private property,
03:39how could the organizer need to obtain the consent of the owner?
03:44In addition to the backseat members,
03:46the deputy minister of the Youth Union,
03:48Adam Ali, who has led the social movement
03:50and has been arrested many times,
03:52also took the lead in defending the right to youth rallies and speeches.
03:55He believes that the government should not be afraid of the voices and opinions of students.
03:59Don't treat them as enemies just because they didn't shout at the government.
04:03Instead, we should thank them for their criticism.
04:06What's more, An Hua has repeatedly stated
04:09that she hopes to see young people fighting for justice and anti-corruption.
04:13Therefore, we should give young people the space to play.
04:17As for the organizer of the rally,
04:20they need to first obtain the consent of the owner.
04:24Famir Reza, a well-known photographer and artist,
04:29played his artistic creativity.
04:32He made a back-and-forth comparison
04:34between the position of the organization and the head of the organization.
04:37He found the head of the organization,
04:40Famir Reza, the minister of communication.
04:42In 2015, he wrote
04:44that the peaceful rally is the basic right granted by the Constitution.
04:51After he became the minister of the organization,
04:55he asked the organizer to apply for the consent of the owner.
04:59He made a comparison.
05:01He also wrote on the poster
05:03that there is a difference between before and after taking power.
