Despite what appeared to be attempts by the KLCC management to cause inconveniences, some 200 people converged at its park off Jalan Ampang in a carnival-like gathering to oppose the Peaceful Assembly Bill.
Instead of being met by police batons and water cannons on its second Saturday afternoon protest, the group of about 200, clad in yellow, were met with water sprinklers.
The group moved close to some trees in the park after the KLCC management, again, cordoned off its compound for a cleaning operation, including the area the protesters used last week.
There, they stood around national laureate A Samad Said, who is popularly known as Pak Samad, as he recited his poem. Then, the complex management turned on water sprinklers on the ground where they stood.
Undaunted, those who were caught in the sprays shielded themselves with umbrellas and continued to listen to Pak Samad, who recited his latest poem in tribute to the occupy movement,Merindu Ruang (Missing Space) after reciting his Bersih poem,Unggun Bersih.
