Come out and protest against govt’s failure, people urged

Sekretariat Solidariti Rakyat says Putrajaya has failed to navigate the country out of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The protest held at Dataran Merdeka in Kuala Lumpur last weekend. Another is being planned at a venue to be announced on July 31.
PETALING JAYA:
Sekretariat Solidariti Rakyat has called on the people to take part in a physical protest against the Perikatan Nasional (PN) administration on July 31.

It said the protest, known as “Keluar Dan #Lawan” (Come Out And Fight), was a symbol of opposition against the current leadership.

“We invite everyone to take to the streets at a time and place which will be announced in the near future,” it said in a statement.

Sekretariat Solidariti Rakyat said this was because the government was incapable of navigating the country out of the Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on the economy, livelihoods and the people’s health.

“It’s time for us to have leaders who are self-aware, responsible and humble enough to understand the people,” it said.

Last weekend, the group gathered at Dataran Merdeka to protest against the administration’s management of the pandemic.

It called for the prime minister to resign, for a full parliamentary session to be held and an automatic loan moratorium for all.

Three activists from the movement were later fined RM2,000 each for taking part in the anti-government protest.
