How many???

Harakah daily had been more modest in its estimates than Mkini had been, but they're now saying 50,000 people!! It was raining, the rain has stopped, and a delegation is still trying to get to the Istana.

My latest sms works with that - says people are walking straight to the Istana, in individual trickles... seeing what happened at Masjid Jamek as a Bersih-organised diversion. It seems there's also a stand-off happening at Dataran Merdeka itself.
