Seventy-one days have lapsed and Avengers: Endgame is still short of $19.15 million needed to outdo Avatar.
I don’t think it can do it.
As at July 05, 2019, worldwide ticket sales reached $2,768,820,792 – and to be honest, it has done very well.
Avatar, released on December 18, 2009, ran in theaters through August – a whopping 238 days. Avengers: Endgame likely won’t stick around past July.
And if Avengers: Endgame doesn’t make it – it’s alright because it is still the No. 2 movie of all time!
The Peaceful Assembly Act (Amendment) 2019 Bill was passed by Parliament on Friday – after almost six hours of debate.
The amendment, tabled by Home Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, decriminalises street protests that were originally an offence under the Act.
Also, the right to peaceful assembly is not limited to stationary protests, but also includes processions, marches and other forms of peaceful demonstrations.
This is all and good – but there are still restrictive provisions that must be addressed.
Simply put, the Peaceful Assembly Act (Amendment) 2019 Bill did not go far enough!
