Before parting, the organizers requested the participants to walk together around the monument in front of Dewan Sri Pinang each one holding a candle in their hands while chanting some Anti ISA quotes.

The police stopped us just after 1 minute, what? now we don’t even have the freedom to walk around the park? Nonetheless, we did not put up a fight because we were there for a peaceful gathering. Instead we sang a song, a very meaningful song,  before we disband.

 

We Shall Overcome

1. We shall overcome (x3) today
Oh deep in my heart
I do believe
We shall overcome today

2. We’ll walk hand in hand (x3) today
Oh deep in my heart
I do believe
We’ll walk hand in hand today

3. The ISA must go (x3) today
Oh deep in my heart
I do believe
The ISA must go today

4. Justice will prevail (x3) today
Oh deep in my heart
I do believe
Justice will prevail today
