Unfazed by threats from Umno Youth and its red-shirt supporters, Bersih has vowed to carry on with its convoy in Penang this Saturday.
This is after state Umno Youth chief Rafizal Abdul Rahim, in a rally involving some 2,000 motorcyclists at Gurney Drive last Saturday, warned that his group might battle Bersih supporters if police did not rein in the electoral watchdog.
Penang Bersih coordinator Toh Kin Woon said the coalition always emphasised peace and encouraged dialogues between opposing parties.
"Whoever disagrees with our demands or approach, can voice out and dialogue, even debate with us," Toh told a press conference today.
