COMMENT On Thursday evening, while on the way to Pontian to launch the DAP Tanjong Piai GE13 operations centre, I tweeted the following:

"Pakatan to give full co-operation. Call on all Malaysians to make 112 historic day. Police aim for 'zero casualties' at weekend rally - Malaysiakini "

This was after I read the report that the police's corporate communication chief, Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf, had declared at a media briefing at Bukit Aman that despite casualties which happened during previous rallies and protests, the police aimed to have ‘zero casualties' at today's rally.
