Augustin's Twilight Time: Psalm 139

Lord you search me and you know me
When I sit and when I stand
You understand my thoughts from afar
Behind me and before me Your hand is there to guide me
Too wonderful for me this knowledge is beyond my reach
Before a word is on my tongue
You know it all before it has begun

I praise you God that I am fearfully and wonderfully made…

Where can I hide from your presence
Where can I flee from your face
If I fly to the heavens you are there
If I lie in the grave you are there

If I take the wings of the dawn
If I settle on the far side of the sea
Even there your hand will guide me
You right hand will hold me fast
For you night is as the day
For you light and darkness are the same

I praise you God that I am fearfully and wonderfully made…

In secret, as in the depths of the earth,
You formed my inmost being
My very self, my bones were not hidden from you
You knit me in my mother’s womb

I praise you God that I am fearfully and wonderfully made…

BLACK MARIA : Jul 9, 2011

(WHO LET THE DOGS OUT)

@11:45am - i was ARRESTED (off Petaling Street) together with Douglas Boucher (a friend & my Boss) and 26 others (including a 69 year old Member of Parliament, John Fernandez). We were taken to PULAPOL (Police Training Center in Jln. Semarak) in a jam-packed BLACK MARIA with no air-con (No. Plate: 2697). Waited inside the BLACK MARIA for about 2 hrs in the blistering sun, before being escorted for our particulars to be taken & than had to wait in the open field until 9pm when we were released (together with about 2000 others who were also arrested). All this because we were part of the 50-60,000 citizens, united in a common quest “BERSIH 2.0 – for a free and fair elections,“ which is a legitimate right of the people. We assembled peacefully despite Death Threats, Bomb Threats, Warnings on Revocation of Citizenship & Preventive detention in a country where CORRUPTION & Abuse of Power, and the flaming of racial & religious hatred by those in the corridors of power goes unabated & in a nation where Criminals, Murderers and Slanderers roam freely.

Update :

BERSIH 3.0 - APRIL 28, 2012 : A group of us ( Wong Whye Loong, Nicholas Chang, Douglas Boucher, DyLon KL Low, Ben Lee, Ian Lee, Jason Lee and Doreen Lee & ++ ) took to the streets of KL with about 300,000 Bersih supporters, sacrificing comforts of home to save our country from a SAVAGE REGIME. Bersih 3.0 was a protest against the Election Commission's favoring the ruling government by increasing the number of voters by hundreds of thousands, openly and unashamedly using illegal immigrants, dead voters & phantom voters. With a sense of camaraderie, we Malaysians regardless of race and religion, united as a single nation and walked to GROUND ZERO, a public square ( Dataran Merdeka ), to pile the pressure on Putrajaya to step up electoral reforms but were again bombarded with TEAR-GAS by the men in BLUE supporting a BRUTAL Regime. When Justice is Denied, the innocent pay the price & today we paid the price when the HOOLIGANS in BLUE bombed us with TEAR-GAS & chemical-laced water canon. A tear-gas exploded about two feet away from me .. i was instantly blinded but managed to find my way through the alleys with the help of strangers. Spat blood twice, washed my face with water and put salt under my tongue (salt & water from strangers who were just stopping to help although they were also going through this ordeal) & re-grouped with my friends at Dang-Wangi LRT at about 6pm
