Yellow is asking for fair and clean election while the event being hijacked by opposition.
Red is asking the person in power to safeguard their interest from other races while they already control almost everything.
Bunch of idiot.... with third world mentality.

Rally officially ends, crowd dispersing at Petaling Street
Published: 16 September 2015 11:22 AM | Updated: 16 September 2015 10:09 PM
Riot police hold their line near the Petaling Street entrance, Kuala Lumpur. Earlier in the day, some rally goers had tried to breach police barricades in Chinatown. – The Malaysian Insider pic by Najjua Zulkefli, September 16, 2015.
After two hours of attempting to breach the police barricades in Petaling Street, rally goers finally agreed to abide by the authorities' orders to disperse.
They only agreed to disperse after Sungai Besar Umno division chief Datuk Jamal Md Yunos, who is one of the organisers, promised that he would ensure that the responsible parties would take action against traders in Petaling Street.
"We ask the Home Ministry to act against the Petaling Street traders. We give seven days. If nothing is done, I will lead a demonstration here," he said.
Some of the rally goers had given the excuse that they needed to enter Petaling Street to make some purchases.
"We just want to go in (to Petaling Street) to buy some stuff. Why are they not allowing us in," one of them said.
Earlier, the situation in Petaling Street turned chaotic when the rally goers tried to breach the barricades.
The police were forced to turn on the water cannon to control the situation.
The police had earlier declared that Petaling Street, popularly known as Chinatown, was out of bounds to the rally goers.
Before the rally ended this evening about 5.30pm, Ketereh MP Tan Sri Annuar Musa had declared that it was a success, saying that there were at least 250,000 participants.
Earlier this afternoon, a crowd of "red shirt" rally goers who gathered at the Pavilion mall in Jalan Bukit Bintang, made their way to Low Yat Plaza, despite warnings yesterday by the police that these areas were out of bounds. However, no trouble ensued as they just chanted and went along their way to Padang Merbok, via Jalan Sultan Ismail.
Low Yat Plaza was the scene of a disturbance in July after handphone traders caught a thief and handed him over to the authorities. Following that incident, a group of about 200 people, some of them said to be members of Malay rights group Pekida, staged a demonstration outside the complex during which several people were hurt.

The protest is in direct opposition to last month’s Bersih 4 rally, which today's rally organisers claimed had insulted the integrity of the dominant Malay race.
This morning, Pekida president Jamaluddin Yusof described the "red shirt" rally as a "jihad" and said 10,000 members from the Malay NGO will make their presence.
Police have declared that the rally is legal, but have said three areas – Bukit Bintang, Petaling Street and the area around Low Yat Plaza – are off-limits to protesters.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had said he will not stop Umno members from participating in the rally, but stopped short of endorsing the gathering.
The rally has come under fierce criticism from opposition parties, civil society groups, Umno Supreme Council members, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal, as well as former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and former international trade and industry minister Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz, both of whom were top Umno leaders until a decade ago.
