Good morning, Tahrir Square!

The spirit of the protesters at Tahrir Square is just amazing. The latest is that striking doctors and 3,000 staff from a key Cairo hospital along with 3,000 lawyers have joined the protests.

A newly appointed Cabinet Minister for Culture has also resigned. According to Aljazeera, “the NDP Secretary General Hossam Badrawi says he expects Mubarak to respond to the demands of the people before Friday. An official statement from the military is imminent”. Is this the end of the road for Mubarak and his regime?

“Cairo bridge is falling down!”…the end of a dictator is inevitable. Who will cry for Hosni Mubarak?…Ketuanan UMNO?

My prayer to the people of Egypt. May they kick that bum out quickly and have things return to normalcy as soon as possible.

I wonder what KFC’s marketing team thinks of *that* product placement?
