KUCHING: Kuching's Bersih 4 rally this weekend will be carrying on as planned with the consent of the police.

Organising chairman Nicholas Mujah Ason also confirmed during a press conference at Telang Usan that ACP Roslan Bek had assured that personnel will be on hand to ensure the smooth running of the event.

"The Sarawak police have shown themselves to be supportive, civilised and responsible. I am very thankful to them," he said.

"We are not a mob and we are not troublemakers. We are concerned citizens who feel passionate about the future of our state and our nation," he said.

"How else should the police respond but to facilitate us in our freedom of expression? Why should we fear the police in a peaceful place like Sarawak?"

Event committee member Ahmad Awang Ali stated, "Bersih T-shirts are sold throughout Malaysia, so come in yellow to show support."

There will also be voter registration booths, informational speeches, musical entertainment, film screenings and general fellowship.

Spokesperson Karen Shepherd asked anyone coming to Bersih 4 Kuching to preserve the smooth running of the city.

Buses will be parked at the Jubilee ground car park while car owners are requested to park at Saujana, Pelita or Top Spot parking.

Shepherd also announced there will be marshals available at Godown Theatre, Museum Gardens, Hilton Hotel and Jubilee Ground car parks to direct participants safely towards Song Kheng Hai Ground.

Those attending can present themselves at these four places at 2pm this Saturday for safety briefing and advice before moving to the venue.

"Unfortunately we must issue some guidelines for arrest. If you are arrested, remain in a large group and take a photo immediately," she said. "Do not raise your hands but put them behind your back instead. If the police ask to search you, ask them to show you their hands before they put them into your pockets."

The organisers also mentioned if anybody need help, send a SMS to 014-8796058 or 014-8795608 with name, IC number and the police station they are being apprehended.
