Working for Change: For a week, a group of volunteers led by Ng Sek San, Malaysia’s foremost landscape architect, worked day and night to make 20,000 odd flower like flags of Pakatan and Bersih colours.
SPRING FLOWERS BLOOM
On a cool Sunday morning (14 Apr 13), residents of Bangsar, an upscale suburban in Lembah
Pantai constituency, came out in force with their MP, Nurul Izzah Anwar to usher in Malaysian Spring.
Planting for change – tender buds of spring flowers sprouting up with the helping hands of
Rakyat Malaysia.

Spring flowers sprouted all over Lucky Garden Roundabout.
Reminds me of the Lupins flowers the grow
wild at the foothills of the Southern Alps, NZ

Happy residents with their MP, after a week of hard work !
Ng Sek San the initiator of the Malaysian Spring being interviewed by the media with Nurul, looking
on. Seksan’s message to Malaysians... “ to spread the message of hope and change, and to get
people to participate in the process of making a better Malaysia, through the simple gesture of
planting a flower in the street. Our message to others is that colour (of the skin) is not important to
new Malaysia, so they can use whatever colours and material.”
Let the Spring flowers bloom in every corners of Malaysia – Sek San is hoping to see 28 Millions flowers before 5th of May
As the saying goes, the good times are not forever.. (好竟不长久..)
