If you’re out shopping or taking the kids to the movies or just out with friends, don’t forget to wear something yellow.

To remind the government that we have not forgotten that they owe us electoral reforms.

    Yellow River by Tony Christie

    So long boy you can take my place got my papers I’ve got my pay
    So pack my bags and I’ll be on my way to yellow river

    Put my guns down the war is won
    Fill my glass high the time has come
    I’m going back to the place that I love yellow river

    Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it’s the place I love
    Got no time for explanation got no time to lose
    Tomorrow night you’ll find me
    Sleeping underneath the moon at yellow river

    Cannon fire lingers in my mind I’m so glad that I’m still alive
    And I’ve been gone for such a long time from yellow river

    I remember the nights were cool I can still see the water pool
    And I remember the girl that I knew from yellow river

    Yellow river yellow river is in my mind and in my eyes
    Yellow river yellow river is in my blood it’s the place I love

    2007-11-24. The Eve of Hindraf Rally.

    Chong Soon and I stood at the entrance of OUG Plaza for one hour from 6pm to 7pm.

    We gave away free bananas. Many thought that we were sales persons. It took us sometimes to convince some of them that there were no strings attached to those bananas.

    There may not be such things as free lunch, but they were indeed such things as free bananas. Some just walked by us curiously.

    Please take one, Cik! (Chong Soon)I want two, thanks!

    Some simply accepted our free bananas. One old man came back for his second serving.

    Some asked us why these free bananas were for.

    We simply answered, smilingly: “We are celebrating Yellow Saturday”.

    Some walked away satisfied with that answers.

    Some asked further what this Yellow Saturday was about.

    We then reminded them the 50,000 rally on November 10. “This is our way of keeping the message alive.”

    We invite those interested to wear yellow every Saturday. “Next time, if you see a bunch of people in yellow on a Saturday, you know that is not coincidence. The government will know too.”

    An uncle who did not accept our bananas stayed on and watched us for at least 20 minutes. Another gentleman, younger and was with his children, later joined in our discussions of politics. They were obviously skeptical that giving or taking bananas can change politics in the country.

    Neither did we. We just wanted to do something on that lovely Yellow Saturday.

    But one man apparently did believe in the power of bananas. He took one banana on his way in. When we asked him to take another one on his way out, he rejected. And as I remember, his answer was “ISA”.

    Have been using yellow every Saturday and buying yellow T-shirt for my family jusy for saturday. Even telling my folks back in Sabah to use yellow every Saturday. However it saddens me that not many people are aware of it.
