Tens of thousands of Malaysians streamed into central Kuala Lumpur on Saturday, August 29, to call for the prime minister’s ouster over corruption allegations and demand broader reforms, spurning warnings by police who have declared the rally illegal.
The capital’s historic heart was jammed by massive crowds, most of them in the banned yellow t-shirts of Malaysia’s reform movement, amid a carnival atmosphere of political speeches, musical performances, deafening vuvuzelas and selfie-taking.
