`

REPEAL THE ISA

FREE ALL THOSE DETAINED WITHOUT TRIAL

From 19:00 hours (7pm) Malaysia Time (GMT +8 hours ) an estimated 2,000 + people who had assembled at Dataran Merdeka (Freedom Square) for a peaceful candlelight vigil; marched in an orderly manner from there to a Hindu temple situated opposite the Puduraya bus terminal in central Kuala Lumpur, in solidarity against the draconian Malaysian Internal Security Act 1960.

The police were present, but not in a very large numbers as far as could be determined.

The group dispersed quietly around 21:00 hours (9 pm).

The event was a great success.
