Violence escalated in two cites outside the capital Cairo Thursday where anti-government protesters torched a fire station and looted weapons that they then turned on police. Egypt's top democracy advocate returned to the country and declared he was ready to lead the campaign to oust longtime President Hosni Mubarak.
Social networking sites were abuzz with talk that Friday's rallies could be some of the biggest so far calling for the ouster of Mubarak after 30 years in power. Millions gather at mosques across the city for Friday prayers, providing organizers with a huge number of people already out on the streets to tap into. By Thursday evening, Facebook, Twitter, cell phone text messages as well as Blackberry Messenger services were interrupted, possibly a move by authorities to hamper protesters from organizing.
“Malaysian students are safe” said the Ministry Of Higher Education. They are not involved in any reformation movement or any demonstration. In fact, they are frightened out by the protestors that always bring weapons. Food is another problem to them. They are now facing with the shortage of food supply due to the demonstration.
Malaysian government together with Egypt planned to transfer our student out from Egypt; maybe to Saudi or Jordan. Students always welcome to come back to Malaysia, but the expenses are upon to the student themselves.
How long will it takes? How long the demonstrations will go on? How about our students? Government of Malaysia should really take this issue seriously. There are around 11000 of Malaysian students in Egypt. Action must be taken before it getting worse.
to take 11000 students at one time is impossible but the government has take a right step to save them, and with the help of King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, everything is in the right path.
