students' demonstration-for good reasons

UMS students demonstration due to the water shortage issue
SOME students' demonstration are for good and logical reasons, which are:
  1. for boycott Israel's branded campaign
  2. for supporting anti-Valentine's Day campaign 
  3. for the water shortage problem
  4. for protest against war and violence
  5. for protest against the idea of giving 10% quota to non-Bumis in UiTM
  6. for protest against a gay performance (Adam Lambert)

    there was a demonstration by Muslim students about the issue of using the word Allah to represent the Christian God in Malay version. the intention was good actually. but unfortunately, the demonstration turned chaos when they related this thing with racial and political issue. as a result, for those who were too much got arrested by the police.
