Friends of Pakatan Rakyat (FPR) is being officially launched as an organisation to rally the support of Malaysians who share the vision of the Pakatan Rakyat coalition for a better Malaysia. The launch will be held on the Sunday 4th of July 2010 in London and officiated by Datuk Zaid Ibrahim, the Pakatan Rakyat Secretariat Coordinator.
Speakers at the event will also include the ineffable Raja Petra Kamarudin as well as speakers from PAS and DAP together with a number of civil society activists sharing their experiences in shaping the agenda of change in Malaysia.
Naturally we would like to attract as many as possible particularly the “unconverted” to experience first hand the depth of support that currently exists globally amongst Malaysians living abroad particularly in the UK. The Friends of Pakatan Rakyat (FOPR) movement is currently being duplicated in various countries throughout Europe, Canada, USA, New Zealand, Australia, Asia, etc. The objective is to harness the global strength of highly qualified Malaysians and former Malaysians living and working abroad to tap into their expertise and financial strength in preparedness for GE 13.
Date: Sunday 4th of July
Time: 10.30 am to 4pm.
Registration begins at 10am
Venue: Conway Hall, 25 Red Lion Square, Holborn, London WC1R 4RL

The curry and spice food will go out of the window in no time at 12.45pm under the Mango tree.
Please make way for the "fatty (still?) Zaid - as he wont be able to match the gym fit young ones in the hunger rush to the canopy tree Fine top.
Who would want the vegan "tow hoo prik" food? Maybe for some BN imposter prick turning up?
It is a priviledge to see this line-up talking up the good Malaysia, our beloved nation. Wish I was in London. Will be thinking of you guys at the very hours. Have a good one.
