Day 6: Viral Fever (and Flu?)

Its Day 6 today. Not sure whether its just a viral fever or a flu, but I have had to cancel three over appointments this weekend, and one on Tuesday. Just in case I'm not well by then.

So it started on a Tuesday.

Well, actually it could have started last Wednesday, where three of us got caught in the rain for an hour when we went hiking up Bukit Gasing. We went back and took a warm shower.

When I met Asta on Saturday, she had already a runny nose.

On Sunday, I met with Syed, he had a cough.

On Monday, I met with Jason who had a fever. His fever started on Sunday though. He said his fever broke yesterday (on his Day 7). Did I get it from him too?

I went to do a blood test on Friday at the Taman Desa clinic (my Day 4). The results came back negative, being a viral fever, I was informed.

ZaYin, one of the three who went hiking has been infection free. I would attest it to the fact that she takes cod liver oil and Royal Jelly supplements religiously? Perhaps this has built up her immune system, I reckon.

ZaYin also does not like to share food.... Good move, maybe thats why she is not sick. LOL.

Are you going for Bersih 3.0?

So the topic of Bersih was a conversation piece during dinner time. I haven't really thought of it, but decided to read more about it on the blogosphere. .

It seems that the Bersih 1 caused a political tsunami in 2008 causing BN (National Coalition) to lose a number of seats.

Bersih 2.0 in July 2011 was a walk rally, where infamous incidents included tear gas being sprayed into Tung Shin hospital. The aftermath was the Health Minister, Low, and Tung Shin head of board, Ng, both denying any accusations that no such incident ever happened.

And the final outcome? The policemen are the one who are being made the scapegoat in this entire pass-the-buck episode.

I'm sure the police will be more careful this time around for Bersih 3.0, just to protect their asses.

Now there is Bersih 3.0, a sit down protest in Dataran Merdeka. It is held in lieu of the upcoming 13th General Elections, with hopes that there will be changes made towards a more transparent election reform.

The date set for this is 28th April 2012, at Dataran Merdeka, 14.00- 16.00 hours.

It is also organized on a global basis all over the world. For my mates in Sydney, its held in Martin Place at the same time, and same day.

Do what you can for a fairer and transparent government, both Malaysian and non malaysians alike! It is your future!!
