DAY ONE
Bukit Aman Lock-Up, Kuala Lumpur
Allah is the Greatest!
Reformation!
Reformation!
They can shut down electricity...
but never our spirit.
They will do whatever it takes...
to fail our plans.
We want equal wealth distribution.
Not reserve wealth
for a selected few.
We can't allow
the rich to be richer...
and the poor in destitute.
Indeed, we want
everyone to realise...
that changes and
reforms are necessary.
Never should we accept...
nor should we allow
any form of cruelty.
Not even once.
Our country is our responsibility.
Malaysia is an advanced nation...
with a great potential.
It is our responsibility
to ensure reforms!
Reformation.
If they arrest you...
who can we
trust to lead our cause?
We are one heart, one soul.
Kak Wan.
That's right, Kak Wan.
No one else is more fitting
to replace Dato' besides you.
Why me?
I can't do it. Seriously.
I'm not a good speaker.
I can't convince people like you.
Besides, all this while,
I never got involved in politics.
I can't.
- No one else is better suited.
Trust me, you can do it.
Don't worry, we will help you.
Zah, our fight must go on.
Who better to preserve
our principles and reputation...
if not ourselves?
Like it or not...
we must brave
upcoming challenges.
No matter how hard,
we must be prepared to face them.
Not just us, we have to prepare
our kids too.
We have no choice, Azizah.
We got to be on our toes.
Dear Allah.
Please protect me, O Allah.
Distance me from harm, O Allah.
Strengthen my heart, O Allah.
Protect my family, O Allah.
Today, all local press
have humiliated me...
and insulted me.
But the people do not believe it!
Long live Dato' Anwar!
We will uphold justice...
on behalf of Malay, Chinese,
Iban, and Kadazan alike. Everyone!
Step down, Mahathir!
- Step down, Mahathir!
Step down now!
- Step down now!
Step down, Mahathir!
- Step down, Mahathir!
Izzah!
- Peace be with you.
Good day, everyone.
Peace be with you too.
Thank you for your attendance
and support.
This conspiracy...
is purposely spread...
to taint my character
and political career.
The accusations against me...
began with sexual misconduct
followed by treason...
foreign agent, sedition,
involvement in a m*rder.
How could they?
Some people actually believe
these accusations.
What?
Have they lost their marbles?
Dato'.
- Dato' Seri.
What's the worst
that could happen?
They might arrest me...
lock me up in jail,
but I'm not intimidated.
Our movement in the
National Mosque this morning...
is just a start.
I'm sure
I will receive a warning again.
I'd say...
Reformation!
Settle down.
- Calm down.
Settle down.
Relax.
Why do you have to break in
this way?
Dato' Seri, please come with us
to the station.
We have an arrest warrant for you.
On whose instruction?
The instruction
was just as such, Dato'.
Wait.
We should perform Isya prayer.
I would like permission to perform
Isya prayer before we leave.
Sure, go ahead.
- Reformation!
Reformation!
Ilham!
Ilham!
Ilham!
Ilham!
Wait!
My apologies, Dato' Seri.
We have to move
to the car in front.
Without your family.
We are only
following instructions, Dato'.
Instructions by whom?
I'm sorry, Dato'.
That's the command we received.
We...
Let's go, Dato'.
Papa.
- Papa?
Honey.
Papa.
See you, Azizah.
Look after the children.
Peace and
Allah's mercy be with you.
Peace be with you too.
Greetings, everyone.
As we all know...
Dato' Seri Anwar was arrested
last night.
Up to this point...
we, the family...
are still not informed on
his whereabouts...
and his condition.
With regard to the accusation...
that Dato' Seri
was detained for sodomy...
that is just
a political conspiracy.
A cruel and truly despicable
conspiracy...
aimed to destroy
Dato' Seri Anwar.
We will not be silent.
His family will demand justice
on his behalf.
Peace and
Allah's mercy be with you.
Have a drink, Dato'.
I'm sorry, Dato'...
my hands are tied.
I can't even
call a doctor for you.
Ask the person who b*at me up...
if he could get a doctor for me.
I have no idea
who b*at you up, Dato'.
Allah is the Greatest!
Shut up!
Shut up!
It was the Inspector General
of Police who hit me.
That is his habit.
You don't have to tell me
for me to know it.
Where is
the direction of the Qibla?
Towards that corner, Dato'.
Dear Allah.
Protect Papa wherever he may be.
Keep him away
from calamities, O Allah.
Preserve his health.
Dear Allah.
Dear Allah.
I want to see Papa, O Allah.
Get him to come home soon.
Save him, O Allah.
Accept our prayers,
O Lord of the worlds.
O Allah, my dear Lord.
Purify me from my sins.
O Allah, my dear Lord.
Protect my family from
the evil of this world, O Allah.
To You, I surrender my affairs.
And only from You, I seek refuge.
May it be so.
Hear my invocation, O Allah.
Accept my prayers,
O the Most Merciful.
Accept my prayers,
O the Most Benevolent.
Sheikh Anwar, why didn't you
discuss it with me first?
We have been good friends
since ABIM, Yayasan Anda.
We build them all together.
Yes, Ustaz Fadzil Noor,
my dear true friend.
That's why you're the first
I'm sharing this with.
All this while...
in every discussion
and in every speech...
you have always att*cked UMNO.
So why do you suddenly
choose to ally with them?
Why won't you join me
in the Islamic Party?
I have great ambitions, ustaz.
I want to end corruption
once and for all.
I want to see our country
free from corruption.
The only way I can achieve that...
is by being
apart of the Government.
Right.
I understand.
Well, in that case,
I should excuse myself.
Alright, ustaz.
You have been
consistent in fighting corruption.
I send my prayers to you.
May you attain
the highest position one day.
God willing.
May you keep being consistent
in this fight against corruption.
Don't ever change.
I just have one concern.
You are putting up a fight
against a corrupt system.
A system that has rooted
for a long time.
I fear...
you will be betrayed.
I fear...
you will be betrayed.
I am sorry.
I can't help you, Dato' Seri.
But please drink a little.
Then, you should
change your clothes.
It's filthy.
It's also covered in blood.
Since Mum's favourite child
is home...
the banana fritters are
on the table in a dash.
Even after being
the Finance Minister...
Mum's banana fritters are still
what you desire most, Non.
Congratulations, Abang Non.
Don't forget to pass
some contracts...
to your family members, alright?
Mum's banana fritters
are the best.
Different from Azizah's.
- To run the country...
you need good stamina.
Here, try this honey from Sarawak.
I never miss it every morning.
If you like it, you can order it
directly from me.
I'll give you a discount.
Non...
since you did well
managing education...
you deserve to manage
nation's finance now.
Prove to the world
that Malaysia...
is not only advanced
in administering education...
but also in managing
national finance.
We are all-rounders.
Don't just be good at governing
the country, Non.
You must be good at looking after
your family first.
No matter how busy you are,
never neglect them.
Thank you, Mum, Daddy, and...
the entire family for
supporting me up to this point.
All praises to Allah.
I have an important announcement.
I know...
..many of our family members...
are businessmen...
contractors.
From this day onward,
I would like...
everyone to not accept
any contracts from the government.
Those with existing contracts
should know...
that their contracts
will not be extended.
What are you talking about?
My contracts have got
nothing to do with you, Non.
I worked for them myself.
You think it's possible to get
them without qualifications?
I have a Class A
contractor's licence, you know?
Yes, I do know.
I didn't say
you can't run your business.
Just avoid government contracts.
Non...
I am your older brother.
When you were in university,
I've already started my business.
I've built so many public schools.
Not once have I
asked for your assistance.
How dare you
try to control my life now?
Abang Rani, please understand
my position.
I understand.
I understand,
we all understand that...
since you got to be a minister,
we are expected to rot.
We aren't going to starve...
just because we don't get
government contracts.
Easy for you to say.
If this is your way of
handling things...
you will have trouble
working with others.
You'll see.
You can't be too rigid.
We know what is acceptable
and what is not.
That's enough, Rani.
Non.
Don't you think
you are being too much?
Rani didn't use the backdoor.
He doesn't break any rules.
It's not about
breaking the law, Daddy.
But whatever we do...
it has to start with ourselves.
What will people say...
when your son is the
Finance Minister...
and your other children
become wealthier.
You will face problems with
attitude like this. You'll see.
That's fine.
If hardship is the risk...
I'm ready to face it.
Easier said than done.
Rani, try to understand
what Non is actually saying.
You got so much. Give me some.
- Non.
The sun is setting soon.
What have you got there?
- Nutmeg, Mum.
I gathered them for us.
Where did you get them from?
Up on that hill, Mum.
Did you steal them?
No, I picked them up
from a Chinese man's tree, Mum.
So what if it's from
a Chinese man's tree?
They say it's not wrong to take
Chinese men's fruit. Right?
Non, listen carefully.
Stealing is a crime.
It doesn't matter
if you steal from a Malay...
an Indian or a Chinese.
Stealing is stealing.
And stealing is a crime.
It's a sin, Non!
I never taught you
to be a thief, right?
But, Mum...
- No ifs and buts.
Don't you ever take
anything that is not yours.
Now, I want you to return these
to the owner.
What? Return these?
- Yes, return them now.
Go to his house. Quickly!
Yes, Mum.
Uncle!
I want to return these nutmegs.
What is your name?
Where do you live?
Anwar. My name is Anwar.
Sorry I stole your nutmeg.
Good evening.
I always knew you would make
a great Finance Minister.
Three times voted
best Finance Minister.
That's a brilliant achievement.
Thank you. You taught me well.
Yes, but you should
take credit for this as well.
It's very hard to get
an award from Euromoney.
You took Malaysia out of debt
and made it a surplus country.
That's impressive.
I'm sure the World Bank
is not very happy...
losing their most profitable
customer since 1963.
Have a seat.
I wrote to the World Bank in 1993.
I thank them...
and said we are not interested
in borrowing anymore.
I used the excess money to pay off
old debts.
In addition, I negotiated
a prepayment of RM12 billion.
Very smart.
No wonder they offered you...
a position as the chairman
of the development committee.
Well, thank you for that
compliment.
Freeing the country from debt
is not that difficult.
The hardest part is
fighting corruption.
Anyway, everything was beautiful
that morning.
The sun was shining brightly,
the birds were singing.
But the officers who
accompanied me on that day...
could not enjoy the trip.
Everyone was tense.
We were scheduled to visit
a school by the Rejang River.
But before reaching
that particular school...
we passed by a smaller school.
I knew that was not the school
we are visiting.
The school we wanted to visit,
of course, was prepared...
to welcome us with
bunga manggar and celebrations.
But because that school
was not expecting us...
I get to witness it
in its pure form.
No exaggeration
and beautification.
Just a small
remote village school.
Peace be with you, Dato' Seri.
Welcome.
Why didn't you tell us
that you were coming?
We could have made preparations.
Clean up the area,
prepare some food...
hold a small ceremony
to welcome you.
It's fine.
You don't have to
welcome me that way.
I just wanted to see
the school as it is.
Please come in, Dato'.
Right this way.
That's when I saw many students...
lining up to go to the toilet.
Children, sit properly.
Can you imagine
in a school hostel...
with dozens of students...
there was only one toilet?
The kids had to line up...
taking turns
to relieve themselves.
Whereas funds for the
construction of toilets...
and school repairs
have been released.
I personally signed
and approved the funds.
However, not all the funds
reach the school.
Enough with all
the corruption stories.
Let's have something to eat.
How about nasi lemak?
I would love to,
but please no sambal.
That stuff is way too hot for me.
That's fine. Let's go.
Sorry, I'm a little late.
My schedule is too packed.
How are you?
- I'm fine, Dato' Seri.
That's alright.
It's just a small matter.
Yes.
I'm here to discuss about toll.
But before that...
a congratulation is in order.
You have succeeded in proving...
that you are
our best Finance Minister.
Yes, thank you.
So what about the toll?
We would like to request a little
increase of the toll tariff.
On what grounds
should the tariff be increased?
Listen, Dato' Seri.
Maintenance cost for the upkeep
of the highway keep increasing.
We need additional funds
to support the operational cost.
Okay.
Please submit
the budget for each kilometre.
I'll need the full report
in two weeks.
How should I put this?
Best for me to be frank with you.
Truth is, I need to increase
the toll tariff...
because we had spent
too much money...
on acquiring
the highway licence.
I had to pay people at the top
all the way to the bottom.
So you bribed your way in...
and now you are expecting
the public to pay for it?
Nonsense.
I will not approve any of these.
Truth is, I need to increase
the toll tariff...
because we had spent
too much money...
on acquiring
the highway licence.
Hello. Yes.
If there's enough evidence...
go ahead.
Yes, Doctor.
You called me in for a discussion?
I called you to discuss
about the Perwaja case.
The company had lost
billions of Ringgit.
We have to save it.
Yes, I did receive
a report on it...
but it's quite tough, Doctor.
Perwaja had lost too much money.
I hope as the Finance Minister...
you can withdraw
national funds to bail them out.
Perwaja is a huge corporation
and this is a step...
to save the many jobs
that are at stake.
Right. I will investigate
what went wrong.
I do agree we need to save jobs.
And I also agree
we need to save the company.
It's just that it needs to go
through a forensic audit.
What do you mean?
I suggest...
the full report to be presented
and debated in Parliament.
We get professional auditors
to run the audit.
I can invite
Pricewaterhouse Coopers...
to be involved...
and the first step...
is we need to terminate
those who are responsible.
This looks like a new company.
I've never heard of it.
Hello, Avid Spectrum Sdn. Bhd.
Who is on the line?
This is Anwar.
- Anwar?
Anwar Saddat?
Are you calling from Egypt?
There's a Pharaoh here too,
you know?
Come visit.
No, not Anwar Saddat.
I'm Anwar Ibrahim.
Anwar Ibrahim?
Which Anwar Ibrahim?
Anwar Ibrahim,
the Minister of Finance.
I'm so sorry, Dato' Seri.
My apologies.
How can I help you?
- I would like to ask...
who owns Avid Spectrum?
The owner is Rusli Ibrahim, Dato'.
Right, thank you.
Rejected with Prejudice
How are you, Dato' Seri?
- I'm fine.
I have a meeting to attend.
- Right, Dato' Seri.
Peace be with you.
- Peace be with you too.
How are you?
- I'm well.
Yes, Sheikh.
- Peace be with you.
Peace be with you too, Sheikh.
How are you, Sheikh?
- I'm doing well.
How about you?
- All praises to Allah. I'm fine.
Dato' Seri.
My boss
wishes to congratulate you...
on your appointment
as Minister of Finance.
Thank you.
He sent me to give you this.
What is that?
Four million Ringgit
as a token of appreciation...
for visiting his hotel.
He is very pleased
that you chose to stop by.
I can't accept it.
Please don't be that way,
Dato' Seri.
It is just a gift.
This has been our way for decades.
The other ministers have always
accepted our gifts.
It's not a problem.
I'd like you to convey
this message to your boss.
I will never accept
anything like this.
I'm sorry, Sheikh.
I had to attend to him.
How are you?
All praises to Allah.
I'm fine by His Grace.
But...
what does he want?
He offered me a lot of money
as a gift...
just because I'm here
visiting his hotel.
But I had to decline.
It doesn't make sense.
Why should he give me
a lot of money...
just because I'm here, you see?
Why not give it to
everyone who stays here?
I don't believe in freebies.
There must be an agenda somewhere.
All praises to Allah.
I'm very proud of you.
But, you must be weary.
They will spread the word...
and you may continue to face
challenges in the future.
There is no power or strength
except with Allah.
Dato' Seri.
What is this?
How about an autograph?
What's your name?
- Wong.
Wong.
Thanks, Dato' Seri.
Peace be with you, Mum.
Peace be with you too, Non.
Mum, is Daddy home?
He is.
Would you like to speak to him?
No, that's alright.
I'll just speak to you.
Mum, I just rejected...
a land gifted to Daddy
by the Sabah State Government.
Why, Non?
The land is 49,915 acres, Mum...
when there are
so many poor people in Sabah.
Many people need that land
more than we do.
I think...
your dad will be
very disappointed...
because everyone
got their share...
and when it is his turn,
he is denied of it.
Can you explain it to him?
Or would you rather
I do it myself?
But you understand my stance,
right?
It's fine. I'll let him know.
Peace be with you, Mum.
Peace be with you too.
We're from the Anti-Corruption
Agency. Check everything.
Check everything.
- Back there.
Search the whole space.
Make sure you open all drawers.
Don't miss anything.
Yes, sir.
- Down there.
All locks and files back there.
Check everything.
Don't miss anything.
You are not allowed to leave yet.
Please be quiet.
Do you know what you've done?
Why did you order the raid?
I didn't order it.
- Why didn't you refer to me first?
Do you know who he is?
He's my friend.
I told you I didn't order it.
But you approved it.
If...
the Anti-Corruption Agency
has information and proof...
I just said to go ahead.
We won't harbour
anyone who is corrupted.
Boss.
Anwar's political position
has become very strong.
Look at him.
He is more popular than you.
Local and international magazines
are saying...
he is our future leader.
That's expected.
I'm not envious of that.
Let me handle the politics.
You just focus on business.
No.
What I mean is this shows that...
he is ready to go against you.
Where did you pick up
all this political gossip?
From our party members.
It's a hot topic.
That's right, boss.
I heard all sorts of stories.
At the party meeting...
my assistant told me...
that Anwar now has
a strong support to defeat you.
You can't let it be.
This is dangerous for all of us.
Many have asked me...
if this break...
has to do with my health.
If I were unwell, of course
I would have taken a sick leave.
Then why are you
taking a long break, Dato' Seri?
I am only going on a holiday.
While I am away...
I leave Dato' Seri Anwar...
fully in charge
as acting Prime Minister.
Why are you appointing
an acting Prime Minister...
while you are away
this time around?
My trips overseas
had all been short before.
But I am going for
a long trip this time.
Are you actually
testing Dato' Seri Anwar?
Why should I test...
someone I trust to be
the acting Prime Minister?
I fully trust Dato' Seri Anwar...
to fulfil this responsibility.
So you will be handling all
the Prime Minister's duties?
Somebody has to do it, right?
I will do what needs to be done
for the people.
You do know...
that many of them
don't see eye to eye with you?
Right now I have a bit of power.
So I will fulfil
what I've been fighting for.
How could I be a leader...
if I am weaker
than those I am leading?
Alright. Let's do it
in the Name of Allah.
Do it in the Name of Allah.
They would borrow money
from wealthy investors...
and invested with
the intention of making...
the highest possible profit...
with the fastest possible
turnaround.
The Asian market with their
above average growth rates...
Dato' Seri! Dato' Seri.
Many neighbouring countries are
affected by the economic crisis.
What will we do to prevent it
from happening here?
The economic crisis
in Southeast Asia...
has somewhat
affected us already.
However, Malaysia is holding up
because we have enough reserves.
Will we be receiving funds
from the IMF?
We have not taken that route...
but I have had
discussions with them...
regarding the
economic crisis in Asia.
What did the IMF suggest we do?
Firstly, IMF suggested...
we be more firm
in fighting corruption.
Secondly, we must ensure
every tender distribution...
goes through proper channels...
and not granted
on a crony basis.
Thirdly, we have to halt
all mega projects.
Thank you.
Just a minute, Dato'.
This meeting is crucial...
as I would like to gather
your support...
for me to bring forward
an amendment...
to strengthen
the law against corruption.
Don't we already have the
Anti-Corruption Agency for that?
Existing law is just too weak.
Corruption has seeped
deep into...
political leadership...
business sector
and amongst civil servants.
If corruption is not eradicated...
our country will be destroyed.
What do you
suggest to amend, Dato'?
We need a new provision...
on anyone who is found...
to be accumulating wealth
unlawfully while in service.
Even if the wrongful act is
discovered ten years later...
the culprit can still be
charged and prosecuted.
Why take this step?
It's dangerous, Dato' Seri.
I've been fighting for this
for decades.
Only now that I am in a position
to take action.
I need the power to do this.
What's the point of leadership...
if I am weaker
than those I lead?
But it's too risky, Dato'.
If you fear risks,
why bother speaking of the cause?
I think the cabinet members
have made the right decision...
by voting yes
to your suggestion.
Yes.
- I agree.
Hello, boss.
There are developments.
Yes, okay.
Thanks.
I was just informed...
that Anwar will be challenging
you as the president of UMNO...
and then as PM.
Don't be too paranoid.
Don't misunderstand.
I represent
the voices of businessmen.
We won't be happy
if Anwar leads Malaysia.
Why?
It is difficult to negotiate
with him.
He is too rigid.
You know...
how important it is
for the conglomerates...
and politicians to cooperate.
We are willing to throw in
a lot of funds for politicians...
but there must be consideration.
I help you, you help me.
And in return...
You know what we want.
We want worthy projects.
Yes.
That's the normal way
of doing business, right?
But how can we help...
if Anwar doesn't give us
any room to do so?
All the gifts for him
were returned.
What more if we give him
commissions?
I think Anwar is too bold
in making this move...
while the Prime Minister
is away, don't you think so?
No doubt the Act
could save this country...
but imagine...
if the Anti-Corruption Agency
has too much power.
They can arrest anyone on a whim.
But if the Prime Minister
disagrees...
the amendment
is rendered useless.
If not careful,
it could backfire on Anwar.
If the Prime Minister disagrees,
it would mean he is corrupted.
Good point.
- As simple as that.
We will see who will be threatened
by this amendment.
Hey. Have you settled
your import permit issue?
Yeah, I paid the minister.
In fact, seven containers
have arrived.
Dato' Seri, have you heard...
about the amendment of the
Anti-Corruption Act...
proposed by
Dato' Seri Anwar Ibrahim?
Is it true that it has been
agreed in Parliament?
Did you know about this decision?
No comment.
Anwar.
I called you here...
to discuss the shipping
consortium company KPB.
Welcome home, Doctor.
I hope everything is well
with you.
All praises to Allah.
All is well. Have a seat.
Tell me about KPB.
I heard the company has lost
billions of Ringgit.
I'm sure you know that
the company belongs to my son.
I want you to find a way
to save it.
Yes, I'm sure
there is a way to save it.
Let me meet with them first.
There are some steps
that we need to do...
What steps are there?
Prioritise this.
Settle it quickly.
If it's too tedious for the
Treasury to release the funds...
just get
Petronas to bail it out.
How can we do that, Doctor?
Besides KPB...
there are many small
companies that need our help.
Anwar.
I have heard about
the amendment of law...
that you proposed.
Yes, the cabinet has agreed.
- Not everyone.
I received
many unfavourable reports.
They are not happy
with the amendment.
But in the meeting that day...
Just settle this KPB issue.
I have spoken to Petronas.
You just need to continue
the negotiation.
We will discuss
about the amendment later.
That's true,
we have discussed this with Dr. M.
We are caught between the hammer
and the anvil.
If we withdraw funds for KPB...
our integrity
will definitely be questioned.
We hope you can discuss this
with the Prime Minister.
I disagree with the bailout too.
But what can I do?
I am stuck in this mess too.
Dr. M seems suspicious and angry.
We got to bear in mind...
that the dignity
and integrity of Petronas...
can be tarnished
because of this issue.
We hope you understand
our position, Dato' Seri.
I understand.
Petronas is the
result of taxpayers' money...
and we can't spend its funds
as we wish.
The economic crisis
in Indonesia...
has paralysed the country's
economic activities.
More and more companies
are closing...
and riots are happening
everywhere.
Students and the people demand...
President Suharto
to step down from his post.
Look at this.
I was right.
He is extremely popular now.
Your fall
is just a matter of time.
That's true.
Anwar is too dangerous.
Think about it.
It has only been two months since
he is acting as Prime Minister...
and he had already amended
the law on anti-corruption.
Imagine if he becomes PM...
what else would he come up with?
If he could say no to you
in the Perwaja case...
what is your guarantee
that he won't do the same...
in cases
involving your children?
He had sent
the Anti-Corruption Agency...
to the Economic Planning
Unit's office.
One day...
he'll send the Anti-Corruption
Agency to the PM's office.
Don't say we didn't warn you.
What do you want me to do?
What do you suggest?
Why are you so stubborn?
Why can't you just help
the boss' son?
You've only just caused a stir
with the law amendment...
and now this.
Are you a trouble magnet?
- Who is this?
Who was on the line?
No one.
Okay.
Ehsan!
Hurry up or we'll be late again!
- Yes, Mama.
Ehsan.
You can't keep being tardy.
Look at your younger siblings,
they are all ready.
Yes, Papa.
- Papa, feed me.
Izzah, attend to your sister.
- Okay, look.
Would you like more?
It's fine, Zah. I'll get it.
Hana.
Right. I'll be on my way.
Where are you going?
I have to go.
You haven't finished
your breakfast.
It's okay.
I'll have something at the office.
What's so urgent?
Is everything okay?
I really got to go.
Okay. Take care.
I want you to resign.
On what ground?
I received a report about your
misconduct and moral issues.
Moral issue, you say?
You and your cronies
are the ones who are corrupted!
I will support you financially...
if you agree to leave
the country.
I will.
No.
I will not resign.
Let me be clear.
I will fight.
Azizah.
- You're home.
I have something to tell you.
What is it?
Mahathir forced me to resign.
I said no.
I refused.
I'm sorry, Zah,
we have to go through this.
I will not be silenced.
I will fight.
If you fear the risk...
why bother
speaking about the cause.
Abang Non.
Dato' Seri, I'm here to deliver
a letter from the Prime Minister.
I'm sure you know
what it is about.
That's alright. Thank you.
I'm sorry, Dato' Seri.
Abang Non,
many people have turned up.
They are waiting for you
downstairs.
Hello.
- I got instructions.
You're moving out of the
house right now.
Who is this?
- That's irrelevant.
You just have to move out.
That's Government's quarters.
Yes, we know,
but please give us time.
We have to pack and
arrange for a new place.
It's not easy... Hello?
Why are the lights out?
It's okay. Calm down.
DAY THREE
Bukit Aman Lock-Up, Kuala Lumpur
Are you Muslim?
I am Muslim too.
- Our hands are tied.
Datin, please forgive us.
I will keep coming here
every day...
until you give me an answer...
about Dato' Anwar's whereabouts.
Anwar Ibrahim.
Anwar Ibrahim.
I'm sure you didn't expect
to get locked up again.
Confined in this dark cell.
Beaten and tortured...
for the same cause
you stood up for back then.
Am I right?
Yes.
- Do you remember...
the Baling demonstration
you organised?
Our goal was to defend
the rubber farmers...
and create job opportunities
for them.
You've led
the students of the nation...
and organised a demonstration.
Because of that
you were arrested...
and imprisoned for 2 years.
No one came to defend you.
Don't give up.
Honesty is hard to come by
in our country.
To get through the storm...
we have to keep walking.
Keep on moving.
And to keep walking...
there are two things
that you need with you...
"confidence" and "love".
"Di Bawah Lindungan Ka'bah"
(Under the Protection of Ka'ba)...
by Hamka.
Your pretty face
Your round eyes
Your pearly white teeth
You bring this
young man A lot of joy
Azizah.
I'm sure you know...
that is my favourite song.
All my comrades knew...
I sing this song all the time
when I was in prison.
Amazingly...
I sang this song
even before I met you.
You only sang "Azizah" in prison.
That's not true.
I sing it everywhere I go.
You're playing politics with me.
Azizah...
it's because I love you.
You are gorgeous
Oh what a mesmerizing sight
Just like a songstress
Just like a songstress
Of the heaven
How I lose sleep at
night Thinking of you
His condition has worsened.
He asked for a doctor.
Can't we arrange
for a doctor to come?
I don't have the appetite.
I have bad news for you.
What is it?
But don't be shocked.
Please don't be shocked.
You have to keep calm.
Okay.
I am calm.
Dato' Anwar...
has passed away.
May Allah forgive my sins.
How did you know this?
A friend of mine
does maintenance work there.
Yesterday, he changed a light bulb
in a lock-up at Bukit Aman.
He saw it with his own eyes.
In the lock-up...
there was a body lying dead...
and covered with a white sheet.
- No. I don't want to hear it.
But, Kak Wan...
- I don't believe it.
As long as I don't see it
with my own eyes...
I won't believe it.
We have to go to Bukit Aman.
Mama.
What happened?
Is it true that Papa is gone?
Izzah.
Hold on.
I have to find out
from Bukit Aman.
I don't know if it's true either.
- Mama.
What if Papa is really gone?
What's going to happen to us?
Come, let's go.
We got to go now, Mama.
We have to go.
Let's go quick. We go now, Mama.
Let's go, Mama.
- Izzah.
Izzah, listen to me.
Since your dad's arrest,
things have already changed.
Our lives have changed.
We have to be strong.
I...
We all have to restore
our family's dignity.
You are the eldest, Izzah.
You have to help me.
Look after your siblings.
You have to lock
your sadness away.
You must not show people
how you really feel.
Do you understand?
I understand.
Okay.
Where is my husband?
How is his condition?
I want to see him.
We can't help you, Datin.
Why can't you?
I only want to know
if he is alive.
Tell me!
If you can't tell me...
call your superiors who can.
Forgive me, Datin. We really
don't have the authority...
to do anything.
- Mama.
Take it easy.
They really can't help us.
Kak Wan, speaking to them
is pointless.
They can't help us at all.
I only want to know
if he is in there.
That's all.
DAY FIVE
Bukit Aman Lock-Up, Kuala Lumpur
Dato' Seri.
I am Doctor Vasati.
They left you like this for
five days without treatment?
I'll ask for a clean set of
clothes for you to change into.
There's no need for that.
Let this be the proof of what
they have done to me.
Please give Dato' Seri
this medication.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
Sukma has released a statement.
He claimed he was sodomised.
Sukma made a false statement.
They can do
whatever they like in there.
For all you know, Sukma was beaten
and threatened to say this.
But Sukma's statement...
can cause Dato' to be brought
before the court.
We have to be prepared.
- Kak Wan, I don't believe...
what I heard.
Izzah.
- How could they...
do this so Sukma confesses.
We consider him family...
since he came from Indonesia
a long time ago.
Peace, Allah's mercy
and blessings be with you.
Mum.
The lawyer called.
Non's case will be heard in court.
Non will never give up.
So we can't give up.
I know him too well.
Don't you worry, Azizah.
Can I get you anything?
Thank you.
There are many supporters outside.
Your family is here,
waiting in the courtroom.
Yes.
The reporters are at the back.
The police are preventing them
from coming closer.
They are not allowed to take
pictures of you.
We got to strategise, Dato'.
When you reach the court's
entrance, just turn around.
Remember, you only have...
about ten seconds.
Reformation!
DAY NINE
Petaling Jaya Court, Selangor
Reformation!
Only one photo was captured
by an AsiaWeek photographer.
It has become to only proof of the
cruel treatment against Anwar...
previously denied
by the Government.
"My one black eye has opened
the eyes of Malaysians."
Special thanks to
the late Rusli Ibrahim...
and the late Mohamad Pakruruzi.
The lock-up scene was re-enacted
based on the report of...
The Royal Commission of Inquiry
on the Injuries...
Sustained by
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
