Message from Tian Chua 22/9

Dear Friends,

I am fine. Just waiting for the hearing of remand. I hope the work outside
is going fine. Heard that Dr. M. is condemning us for rioting, condemning
us for using the mosque etc. Our action was peaceful and legal -- this has
been the principle of our struggle.

This mosque is place for gathering, worship, discussion etc. It is open for
all to use - and that shows the universality of the religion. Our gathering
on Sunday showed a gathering of Malaysian of all communities to peition the
King - as the head of state and as the head of the national religion. This
action showed the spirit of solidarity of the people.

We will continue with this form of actions. I urge all people to step up
our efforts to assert our rights. I am convinced that the victory will
eventually come. The people power will overcome the injustice! Keep up the
struggle!
