One more night.
Hello all.
Sorry I’ve been slack. So many things to do! It’s crazy! But I shall get to the pertinent stuff first.
Okay, my ’statement’ on the meeting with Nat. Nat is fine, he is starting to grow a stubble which he would often shave on a Friday so that he’ll be all good looking over the weekend when he’s spending time with me. lol. Anyway, he has been fed nasi goreng of late. Officers had been kind as he fondly described one of them as coming from a PAS kampung and another is worried that Nat might badmouth the police.
We brought Subway sandwiches and Mydin from Bangsar Utama sponsored a can of 100 plus which is Nat’s favourite (I picked it, thank you v. much). Nat was eating it slowly while giving us the lowdown on conditions in the cell and how he’s being treated. What was disclosed is fairly confidential as I dare not say to much for fear that CyberCrime flers (I saw an officer Anwar playing Red Alert 2 when we were at the office) reading this.
*waves*
What I can say is that we all gave Nat enough love and hugs to sustain for another cold night in the cell. He made this super speech to the “press” which I shall reproduce below.
Saya berasa semangat and menguatkan azam untuk menegakkan keadilan untuk semua. I’ve been teaching the inmates how to sing reformasi songs. If they think they can get to PKR or activists by bullying a skinny young fella, mereka sudah salah anggap. Saya amat berterima kasih kepada keluarga yang dikasihi, Li Tsin yang disayangi, rakan-rakan aktivis dan rakan-rakan di Malaysia dan di luar negara.
Famous quotes, you guys. lol. Note them down.
Other than that it was a good to see Nat talk again and having him close by.
Again, I can’t stop stressing how much appreciate everybody’s support on this. More so to those who actually don’t like Nat or PKR or whatever …. for you to put aside all sorts of differences to stand up for principles and for freedom and for what’s just in this world … THANK YOU!!!
Just a quick heads up should the police succeed in extending Nat’s remand : I’m going to fucking mobilise every single person Nat knows with international connections and we’re gonna make this issue so big, Pak Lah would wish he did not put Johari Baharum in his cabinet. This is not a threat. This is a promise.
Updates live from Cheryl tomorrow I reckon. If I don’t blog, I’m most prolly clinging on to Nat and not letting go :)

I’m not sure how much of an international force the Hartford Independent Media Center is, but for whatever it’s worth, we’ll be with you! Hang in there Li Tsin.

[…] I understand how his family must feel, how Li Tsin, his devoted girlfriend must be through now (she met him last night). But I am so proud of all them, taking it in good spirits and giving us all hope, like his parents […]

Oi,
Now that Nat has achieved celebrity status, you can expect a lot of competition. I for one have not been able to sleep just thinking about him. All is fair in love and in war. Remember!
