  • The Bersih 2.0 rally (also called the Walk for Democracy) was a demonstration in Kuala Lumpur held on 9 July 2011 as a follow-up to the 2007 Bersih rally. The rally, organised by the Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih), was supported by Pakatan Rakyat, the coalition of the three largest opposition parties in Malaysia, but was deemed illegal by the government. Bersih, chaired by former president of the Bar Council Ambiga Sreenevasan, were pushing the Election Commission of Malaysia (EC) to ensure free and fair elections in Malaysia. It demanded that the EC clean up the electoral roll, reform postal voting, use indelible ink, introduce a minimum 21-day campaign period, allow all parties free access to the media, and put an end to electoral fraud. The police vowed to stop any rallies from taking place on the planned date on the grounds that all public gatherings without police permits are illegal. Having originally planned to march through the streets of Kuala Lumpur, Bersih decided to hold its rally at Merdeka Stadium after consultations with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Malaysia's head of state. Supporters of Bersih claim that demands for electoral reform made during the 2007 demonstration fell on deaf ears. UMNO Youth and Perkasa planned counter-rallies, dismissing Bersih's demands for electoral reform, but Perkasa called off its counter-rally due to its inability to secure a venue and permit. Estimates of the turnout ranged between 10,000 and over 20,000. The protesters were unable to congregate at Merdeka Stadium as many were forced to disperse by police who were heavily deployed throughout the city. Police arrested more than 1600 protesters, including Ambiga and several opposition figures. (en)

  • 2011年净选盟2.0集会(Bersih 2.0 rally)是一项由马来西亚社会组织“干净与公平选举联盟”(简称“净选盟”)主催与策划的群众集会。这项集会在2011年7月9日举行,参与集会的群众原准备在吉隆坡的三个地点集合,然后分三路走向马来西亚国家皇宫,向国家最高元首提呈人民希望改革选举制度的备忘录。但较后净选盟委员会接受最高元首的劝告,把集会地点改在室内的默迪卡体育馆。 7月9日当天,参与集会的人民从吉隆坡市区的各个方向和平走向默迪卡体育馆,可是受到警方的多番阻拦和镇压。最后约五万名集会参与者惟有在被封堵的街头上与警方周旋,而未能成功将改革选举制度备忘录上呈予最高元首。无论如何,净选盟2.0委员会认为此次集会已成功唤醒各种族国民对公平选举的意识。 净选盟2.0人民集会获得多个非政府组织的支持,人民联盟旗下的三个政党回教党、公正党、行动党以及亲民联的马来西亚社会主义党也一致响应集会。而在国会中占多数的国民阵线代议士则认为这项集会带有政治阴谋,纷纷予以谴责。在净选盟2.0集会未举行之前,马来西亚警方已陆续逮捕了超过150名为集会宣传的各阶层人士。而在集会当天,被警方扣留逮捕的参与者超过1500名,其中包括了净选盟委员会主席安美嘉、国会反对党领袖安华、公正党副主席蔡添强、回教党主席哈迪阿旺、巫青团团长凱里等。一名参与者更因吸入催泪弹烟雾而导致呼吸困难逝世。 (zh)
