Perfect Relationship

2010-02-17T16:05:00.001+11:00

Perfect Relationship between Malaysia & Singapore - what deems to be shit for Malaysian Government, i.e. genius talents of Malaysia, are all passed down south (mind the pun) to Singapore. If you call SG a shit hole of Malaysia it definitely is a compliment. And those talented shit are now part of the growing force of Singapore.

When countries like Singapore and Australia filter and acquire the best talents from Malaysia, Malaysia attract best low-class workers from Indonesia, Nepal, Bangladesh and whatnot. And of course the local Malays are still poor as shit because the government just keeps telling them "You're Bumiputera, you're the master of the land" - that's all they have really. Bumiputera-ship, a sinking ship.

Really?

OMG... this tanning business is really getting out of control. Now the question is.... Now that we've done the front, how about the crack behind?

Handling Love

2010-01-25T17:45:00.002+11:00

I actually have Ee Lin to thank for. If it wasn't for her wedding and I having to MC, I would not have been that motivated, in the midst of the monsoon, to flatten the love handles.

I know I was getting a little bit flabby by November last year. It was raining nonstop and I just wasn't motivated enough. Now that the train has started, I am more determined to look good in front of my secondary-school friends. LOL. Vanity is one of my many middle names (amongst them, fabulous).

How to wear confidence confidently on my sleeves? Work hard... that's the only answer to everything.

Sensitivity

2010-01-25T15:51:00.002+11:00

I wish Sheldon had just invented or come up with the coefficient of sensitivity of human's emotional perception.

Just had an argument with a friend, and of course I was being called too sensitive. I don't think there's anything wrong with being sensitive. In today's world, everyone needs to be empathetic - to family, friends, strangers and the environment.

What started of the argument was a discussion of calling someone a man. What is a man and what is not? I find it sad that we would call someone less of a man if he doesn't do something that you may see REAL MEN do. There comes my next pet hate, REAL MEN? Who are the real men? Arnold who has saggy boobs now? Osama who killed thousands? RuPaul - a drag queen? Does it mean when you are all muscled then you are more of a man than someone skinny, like Ghandi? Is there a definition somewhere? I doubt so. You know why - because it's all human nature.

Like killing, raping and all we classify as crime - they are all human nature. For that matter, all living creatures. We just have to accept that human are capable of all range of actions. There's nothing less or more human. Yes we can condemn and punish through arguments and voting, but is that very humanly also? Gathering power from majority and prosecute the minority?

The same argument goes to calling someone a real woman. Often you see large-sized women calling themselves the real women, when combating image problem against the stick-like women on the runway. Who are the real women? All of them are real. What is not real is in our mind - the fact that we are only accepting a certain criteria to be superior to others.

Perhaps there's no point of this post - because according to my argument, all are human nature hence therefore it's alright to be discriminating. Perhaps that is true, but fight for survival is even more all-encompassing than discrimination. Therefore for insensitive folks, if you want to sink to the UMNO level, then by all means....

If you were a flight attendant and a passenger, who had been waiting for you to come serve him/her, asked you, what took you so long? And you said, why are you so impatient?

It was such a nice holiday - full of shopping, food and laughs. What more could I have asked for. It was nice to laugh with the girls again.

I am so reminded of Sex and the City. Our catching up felt very much like the upcoming movie. Good moments are to be treasured and time passes real quick when there're good moments.

Funny Moments:

1. Edmund's nose bled when Jay Chow appeared on stage at Pavilion. Just like an automatic reaction, almost.

2. Jokes/riddles about Zebra with Angelene and Moon

3. G-Spot exploration with Travis, Sherly, Angelene and Moon. I hope he finds it eventually.

4. Well of course, I hope the couple in question sneezed a number of times...coz we did talk about them a number of times.

What would I do - if I were a hairdresser?

I was having a haircut the other and I started smiling a little bit as my thoughts turned. It was not due to the haircut I was getting, as it was not Yudai who cut my hair. I was thinking - if I were a hairdresser, not a terribly good one, I was imagining myself cutting my clients hair inch by inch. Whenever the hair did not look right, I cut it further. Whenever there was a kink that I did not know how to smooth, I chopped it. Whenever the texture was not desirable, Alfred Scissorshand came to play. Eventually all my clients left my saloon with either crew cut or they were bald.

WWYD?

Obsession

2009-11-14T20:15:00.002+11:00

When does it start and when does it fade? Is an obsession replaceable only by another?

It is such a love-hate relationship with obsession (or addiction to that matter). You want to quit on one hand yet the other wants to keep on going. You know you are getting nothing of out it yet you secretly yearn for the impossible to happen.

Oprah once defined giving up to be where there was no longer any hope to change. When will taking action towards achieving the goal become annoying and in turn reduce the rate of success? There is no answer to this question. One can only try and hope (what a useless word?).

I didn't like MC's Obsessed until now.

I am in a very dark place today

2009-09-29T19:47:00.003+10:00

Almond set me off this morning. Felt good whilst punishing her this morning. I had hated that dog for a long long time. Though I was left feeling something was still quite wrong.

Then I lost my temper again with Mom in the afternoon when teaching her Excel. I easily blew my temper. I just couldn't find an extra ounce of patience in me. I think Mom was very upset by my attitude she voice quivered. I dared not look at her and forced myself not to feel guilty. Mom must have been broken hearted that her son was so rude to her.

Then at home I lashed out at my brother again. I hit him with a shirt when I was folding laundry. He cried. My heart broke very quickly yet there's a part of me that disallowed me to show my emotions.

I am very unhappy. I don't know what else I will do or not do. Killing Almond is definitely one of the things top of my list.

How do I fix myself? I need to make things work. I need to.

If you really need all matching-matchy...

I do think that it's quite genius... Next time I'll just buy a Small for bottom and Large for top.

Exorcism

2009-06-27T14:12:00.003+10:00

Don't understand why would demons possess weak human being if they want to show vengeance to god or to take over the world... And all they do with the possesed humans is scream, cry, yell in different languages and voices... What's the purpose? What do they want by doing that? Conquer the world? I dunno why don't they just possess Obama/Clinton/Osama/Hussien? Start apocalypse by possessing a bunch of wild angry oxes/tigers/lions/elephants will also do the job nicely.

Demons are useless: they succumb when a priest yells "I command you in the name of god". Yea, a demon is supposed to be scared of that. I think that kind of yelling from Mom stopped working on me when I was older then 8 or 9. A demon, who's supposed to be more powerful than I am, is scared of that? Beats me. Not only they are useless, they are stupid - why not just kill the exorcist immediately whilst waiting to be spritzed with holy water?

I believe a lot of unanswered phenomenas are the result of our brain and evolution. Some people's brains are better and some aren't. Some short-circuit more easily, some are smarter. Stop thinking we're so special - we're just apes with lots of Nairs used to wax off our hair.

Subtitles

2009-06-22T17:38:00.003+10:00

It is discriminatory! Or plain stupid?

Has anyone else watched a DVD, when choosing subtitles, and is taken aback when it says "English (for the hearing impaired)".

Oh excuse me thank you very much. My ears are working just fine. Are they saying unless you have 100% perfect hearing you can't watch a movie with subtitles? Cue rolling eyes please.

And, and, and, this insult is double-fold as it is only hurled at people who supposedly think they can converse in English. If you don't understand English and are French, you don't get insulted for your limited command of the English language or limited ear drums perhaps. Same goes for the German, the Japanese and the Arabian.

If we use the logic of deduction, where the

First statement is A person whose mother tongue isn't English needs subtitles,

Second statement is A person who needs subtitles have impaired hearing,

Conclusion must be A person whose mother tongue isn't English has impaired hearing!

Go figure. Now can I sue Dreamworks, Warners Brothers and all other production studios?

KLIA

2009-06-10T09:20:00.004+10:00

KL International Airport has been awarded "Best Immigration Service" in the World Airport Awards.

It is no surprise because if one's incoming record can be made mysteriously disappear off the official record whilst one's remain is found in the country somewhere in the jungle, KLIA definitely provides the best immigration service. For those who wish to have a Switzerland (not in the banking sense) in South East Asia, those who wish their identities to be masked completely, please please visit Malaysia and use KLIA (not bloody LCCT).

Or, if one has previously made a statutory declaration claiming serious allegation towards some government officials, and now one has allegedly fled the country, one's immigration details will not be found in KLIA's immigration database.

It really is that good.

I hope my friends (you know who you are) are enjoying this album as much as I do that I am about to cry. If I could marry Chris Martin I would love Apple more than Gwyneth would. LOL. His flawless falsetto and low-key register just keep blowing me away.

This is one thing that I just love about Coldplay - that they are not that commercial. Their singles often can be downloaded free and some proceeds donated to charity. This album is also downloadable FOC here.

Songs that make me on the verge of crying: Fix You, Viva La Vida (possibly the greatest recording EVER) and The Hardest Thing. The purpose of the free album was to show gratitude to fans. The band stated that "playing live is what we love" and that the album is "a thank you to our fans – the people who give us a reason to do it and make it happen."

Would be so great listening to them live. One day.

Sums Up Pretty Much What I Feel Myself

2009-05-14T12:01:00.002+10:00

I am taking this from Lucas, who left a comment on Bloggers and Sisters.

There was once a great show called B&S,

Who had characters and stories of interest,
Then S3 came along,
And even smoking a bong,
Didn't help make sense of this awful mess.

Our favourite, a lawyer named Kevin,
He loves Scotty, who's perfect without sin,
But Kevin left his job,
To work for Robert the knob,
And his spirit was thrown in the bin.

Kevin had a sis named Kitty,
Who hardly used to wallow in pity,
Then she married a senator,
Whose ambitions wore thin on her,
Now they're both annoying and shitty.

Kitty had a bro named Justin,
Adorable with a cute dorky grin,
He overcame his addiction,
But had another affliction,
Dating a girl who was once his own kin.

Sister Sarah is bright and jolly,
Back to Ojai she goes for more folly,
She deserves a soulmate,
But right now on her plate,
Is Ryan and a tart named Holly.

Tommy Walker was always the dull son,
Then he turned into Schmuck No. 1,
Committed a crime,
But didn't want to do time,
So now he basks in the Mexican sun.

These kids' father was William Walker,
Who was an embezzling philanderer,
He was screwing Holly,
And suicidal Connie,
Thus spawned a creepy stalker.

William was married to Nora,
She was just like everyone's mama,
But now she's become,
A mere parody of mom,
A real shame 'cos Sally deserves betta'.

And finally there's gay old Saul,
A wise brother and uncle to all,
He was once dating Henry,
But they threw out this story,
For a plotline that means sweet f**k all.

I tried to endure it but Season 3 of Brothers & Sisters was a big disappointment. There was only one memorable episode, Just A Sliver, where Kevin Walker sliced a piece of his liver for his niece, who's also his biological daughter. Other than that, the writers gave us contrived, unbelievable, illogical, discontinued and unjustified storylines for the rest of the season. Our beloved characters have been mauled and killed mercilessly. Perhaps I was watching a spin-off called Lost/B&S.

Many of the fans are mad because seasons 1 and 2 were just amazing and so loveable. Season 3 started to fail when the writers tried to maintain Rebecca on the show, by introducing a new pale teen vampire, Ryan. Since then, the show was buried way below six feet under. Tommy Walker and Robert MacCallister are also the two characters who are most disliked. Now we are rid of Tommy but can someone please also kill the Senator? I don't understand why Nora Walker, Kevin Walker, Sarah Walker, Saul Holden and Scotty Wandell had to be sacrificed to make way for unimportant supporting characters. What more, the most controversial and most hated character of all, Ryan Laferty, sucked the daylight out of the Walkers.

I just love her

You ask what's the connection? Thanks to Siang Chin, I was totally struck in awe when she told me this idea!

You know how we call Chinese who are westernised - banana - yellow on the outside, white on the inside.

See where I am going with this? An egg person, is a caucasian/white/westerner, who is totallyor inclinde to be yellow, i.e. Chinese, on the inside!

Some people are stupid, really...

2009-05-07T13:59:00.005+10:00

I think I learn a lot from the Oprah Winfrey Show. Calling her a second Mother is really not an overstatement.

Apparently some Americans use paper plates for EACH AND EVERY MEAL they have. You wonder why the Chinese oppose that advanced countries like the US impose green energy restrictions on them. I remember when I was young, paper plates are only used when there's no water supply or when there was a party. They were, still are (in my family), considered sacred or treasured expensive items.

It's obvious that using paper plates in such a way is wasteful, but it also shows a lack of education amongst people. We have come to an extent where material things come so easily that we don't appreciate things. I am no perfect too. But I think I have the right to condemn such wastage. I talked to my friend about this yesterday and he said we might have to think about the water used to clean plates. I did think about that but I think throwing away paper plates is more wasteful than washing plates. Just imagine how much energy has been used for a tree, the chopped down, processed and transported to stores; whereas a plate is made of clay then you reuse it infinitely many times. Water is also recycled more easily than growing a tree, I would imagine.

Talking about water - the Victorian Government has been asking Victorians to use less than 155l liters of water daily. I had been wondering about that until I received my latest bill. There are 3 in my apartment and we use 209 liters a day, which means less than 70 liters per person per day! That's even less than half of what is prescribed. I don't really understand why people take a long shower though - you get wrinkly skin? I mean, you can't wash away sin by splashing 20 litres of water on yourself.

I know the 70 liters consist of washing dishes, drinking water, washing laundry, shower and toilet. However it still daunts on me that I could easily splash 25 (roughly) bottles of 1-liter bottled water on myself daily. Why has the government never thought of such an advertisement to educate people from using water excessively. They could easily show the direct effect of "more wastage on shower, less water for drinking".

That brings me to bottled water - what's with this bottled-water drinking culture? What has happened to the good old boiling-water-n-a-kettle practice? If I remember correctly the statistics, million tonnes of plastic from bottled water are brought to landfill yearly. Millions!! Personally I can accept buying bottled water if you must, when you are outside. However, it totally overwhelms me when people have to do that when they are at home! Look at so many fridges in so many families, especially, from what I have seen, in the US, every fridge has bottled water! Let's not forget it's so easy to throw away unfinished water - that's another wastage. From family, moving on, to corporations - paper cups...

Some people are addicted to alcohol, some people are addicted to ice, some people are addicted to... papers.

Some people may not be stupid - they are ignorant.

Guess how much do these cost?

2009-05-05T18:47:00.001+10:00

Each pair costs between $110 to $120. And they are for BABIES only....

For those whom I have shared the new song by The Black Eyed Pea, Boom Boom Pow, they will find this music video quite familiar, the first part anyway.

Equal rights! Equal rights!!!!! Kevin Rudd needs to apologize to the stolen GAYneration! Everyone needs to come together, doesn't matter gay or straight or bi or asexual or transexual or pansexual or any-sexual. It's civil - not religious. You gotta have a say. Mark my words, if you don't stand up for equal rights, let's see what will happen when one day you are no longer free to choose what your religion is.

Freeganism

2009-04-30T14:10:00.003+10:00

I was a little bit shocked to find that there's such a thing called Freegan (from free and vegan) Freeganism is an anti-consumerist lifestyle whereby people employ alternative living strategies based on "limited participation in the conventional economy and minimal consumption of resources".

The world's most material girl, Madonna, has done quite so well in bringing us just that much closer to materialism. I am one hell of a big sinner too. Things things things. Separation does make the heart grow fonder! The longer I can't be with another thing, my heart just longs for it so bad. But as soon as a desire is satisfied, another one pops up just like pimples on a teenager's face.

On the Big O today, this woman, who was previously earning a 6-figure salary, gave up that life and started picking up food from dumpster. She even organised trash trips for people of the same interest. Such trips are not fancy trips with fancy drink but trips where you get closer to a possum or rodent, skill-wise speaking. What striked me the most, was that our society wastes so much. American, being 5% of the world population, consume 30% of the world's resources. Madeline and her troop could find buckets of food, loaves of bread, fresh fruits, muffins, cereal, salad and canned food from just a handful of dumpsters, mostly all from grocery stores.

Have you not picked an apple and seen a small dent on it and not purchased it eventually? I have. These perfectly fine fruit are thrown away, they are not even given to the poor or homeless (due to some restrictions). And how much food have I wasted? If I remember correctly, $30 BILLION of food is wasted annually in the US. Now wouldn't it timely if the CEOs of failed companies started embracing freegan lifestyle?

Consumerism, I think, is a more serious problem than drug or alcohol addiction. It is a problem that is so serious but it lives under our skin so comfortably that we don't even realise it. I am sure there are lots of things that I don't need in my life. Looking at the bigger picture, we are digging our own graves and hauling our asses into them too. One the one hand, we scream to preserve the nature; on the other, the economy would stop now that it has become so reliable on consumerism, if people don't buy new clothes for 3 years, like Madeline.

One very good example, products from Apple - all the pods. Even better example, cell phones. I have always wondered, how the heck are we going to save electricity if everyone has a cell phone now? Or iPod, or just any electronic gadgets that are bombarding the market daily. Or TV, it used to be that one family had one, but now every room in a family has one too. There's only so much switching off all electronic devices can do in terms of saving electricity. There are 2 fridges in my apartment.

Back to myself, living as a freegan is probably my ideal. But can I do it? If so, when will I truly give up all things material in the world?

2009-03-31T11:16:00.000+11:00

As much as I was a Kylie fan, I had never like Spinning Around much until I heard this concert version. Smartly remixed with Cheryl Lynn's Got to be Real, which has now become my top-play, these 2 great dance/disco anthems are a match made in heaven. I just wish Kylie made a CD of this concert because I really really hope to have this track as mp3 so that I can blast it from my N95. The costume is brilliantly made reminiscent of music video Spinning Around itself, where Kylie makes golden hot pants a smash hit worldwide.

Another concert remix that really has me going is Madonna's remix of Music and Disco Inferno, the love child being Music Inferno. Not only it's fierce, this kind of fierceness can only come from the Queen herself (and her team) - whoever the person that came up with the idea of mixing these 2 pieces of iconic songs has my hat off to him/her.

Let’s Talk About S3X

2009-03-30T10:30:00.001+11:00

I have a problem with sex. I have a problem with people’s attitude towards sex.

I have always thought no more about mankind that it’s all about sex. About procreation. About love being just chemical reactions and lust being the under-acknowledged side effect. I can be very cynical about love, that’s it’s no more than a physical (i.e. protein in your body) illusion that make you shut up about the pain of raising a child with a husband that’s alcoholic, bad-tempered and fat.

My point is that so many things have been sexed up. A lot of things in our life have been associated with sex.

A sexy sale person. Understandable.

A sexy bartender. Even more understandable.

A sexy sex-worker. Need I say more?

What is so in my face, is that even a couch can be sexy. OK, I hear you say people may be induced to have sex in it. I’ll let you have that.

What about a sexy car? A car? Sexy? Something that’s cold, metallic and boxy reminds you of sex?

What about a sexy mobile phone? You often hear “sexy” thrown into anything. Selling something by putting sex into it has never been more evident nowadays. Even a mobile can be sexy? Perhaps this is what people talk about – acceptance eh? Even though I don’t quite get it but I should assume some people do get aroused by a mobile phone?

If you think that my definition of sexiness is that literal – I admit it, as I don’t know what else to think of when people use the word sexy. Are you even surprised that human sexual activities now involve having sex with a car?

What else is sexy that you hear in your daily life? We’ve so far covered cars, mobile phones and furniture. Why not throw in a sleek and sexy laptop to spice things up once in a while?

Let’s go to the most obvious one – clothes. I think we human create lots of problems for ourselves. We’re such conflicted energy patterns! Let’s just picture an office scenario where a married manager just sees his secretary with clothes that you would call sexy (as you’re told when you see the advertisement that the clothes have such an effect). Day in and day out, this man is stimulated but not taken care of. Every minute he’s reminded of sex, of sex that he’s not having. Can you really blame him for having an office affair?

So why are we worried about children maturing much early physically? Apart from food that we eat, like I say above children are exposed to sex much earlier than those people selling sex now. People are also hypocritical – whilst we allow these sexy intonations reverberate loudly in our daily life, we condemn nude paintings of a child.

I feel so confused living in our society. Whilst a penis or vagina or even butt and breasts are pixelated on TV, we’re screaming of sex by all other means. For what? Just to sell products. Just to abuse consumer psychology.

Sleepless Beauty

2009-03-28T21:53:00.000+11:00

Have not slept well in the past few nights.. Mom, bro and I all woke up at about 5am on Monday morning. Didn’t know what happen actually, Mom said she had heard a frog yapping (I don’t how does a frog sound in English) away… The night before – I woke at 5am because I had just had a bad dream about my bro. We were fighting as he had done something wrong, I scolded him, he drove/ran away, things were smashed, I might have cried… And I found tear stain at the corner of my right eye when I looked in the mirror.

Again, it was an early morning today. I tried to stay in bed till 6.45am. It’s 11.45pm now and I am waiting to fly to Melbourne. It’s way past my bedtime and I normally don’t sleep well sitting. Perhaps I knew I would be missing home, hence the dream and sleepless-ness.

I don’t know what to feel going back to Melbourne this time. In my heart, 95% of me doesn’t really care about what may or may not happen with AIG. I already gave up when I decided to go back to Malaysia in Dec. No matter how hot it is in Tanah Merah, how fierce the mosquitoes are, how long-winded my Dad is, home is still home.

this post was incomplete some time in Jan/Feb 2009 – I decided to post it anyway…

Hardest Task

2009-03-28T21:52:00.001+11:00

Climbing the Everest? Giving up a kidney for your mother (the daughter of a friend of my Dad did this)? Or simply resisting temptation of a chocolate-glazed donut?

Have you ever considered forgiving yourself? For whatever experience that you might have suffered from, or inflicted upon others, or being inflicted on by others.

At times, the reason we can’t let go of something is because we haven’t forgiven ourselves. We can forgive others easily. Being self critical is one thing; being ignorant to the truth is another.

I was watching Oprah the other day. A female deputy sheriff was being raped by her husband. And an ex-beauty queen also being raped by her husband. I found from the interviews that we never/seldom admit to ourselves, not even to people whom we’re very close to, that we have done something stupid. It’s so shameful and hard to admit that we indeed have made a wrong decision and are now afraid to stand up to admit it, let alone if it has the opportunity to drive our lives to misery.

Elton John also says “Sorry” is the hardest word and Chicago agrees that it’s hard to say one’s sorry – Sorry to oneself is even harder than apologizing to others. We can’t forgive ourselves for making a mistake, a mistake which in our own hindsight is so not worth making. And ever since, we hope to eradicate any consequence or even go as far as reversing the situation – all but futile.

Yes we know where we have fallen and we’ve learned our mistaken but our memory is forever imprinted with the mistake and the shame that comes with it. It is so critical to tell ourselves to give up hope of changing the course of history. Whatever you do now, to yourself, is basically self-punishment. But what’s the point of beating oneself when the outcome is invariable.

点给我的好朋友们-想念你们

那片笑聲讓我想起我的那些花兒，
在我生命每個角落靜靜為我開著，
我曾以為我會永遠守在他身旁，
今天我們已經離去在人海茫茫。
他們都老了吧？
他們在哪裡呀？
幸運的是我曾陪他們開放。

啦……想她。
啦…她還在開嗎？
啦……去呀！

她們已經被風吹走散落在天涯。

有些故事還沒講完那就算了吧！
那些心情在歲月中已經難辨真假，
如今這裡荒草叢生沒有了鮮花，
好在曾經擁有你們的春秋和冬夏。
他們都老了吧？
他們在哪裡呀？
幸運的是我曾陪他們開放。

啦……想她。
啦…她還在開嗎？
啦……去呀！

她們已經被風吹走散落在天涯。

他們都老了吧？
他們在哪裡呀？
我們就這樣各自奔天涯。

A Lezzie-Affair to Remember

“I guess you haven’t heard about that.”

“She’s a dyke, too?”

“Well,” said Mary Ann. “She had an affair with a woman. Does that make her a dyke?”

“It does if she did it right,” DeDe replied.

Taken from Armistead Maupin’s Further Tales of the City.

Had the kiss continued, would the lives of my two best friends have taken a totally different direction? Maybe I would even be asked to be the father to their child(ren)?

I really admired them for braving themselves for the kiss. I guess that’s about the craziest thing they have ever done, intimately. Moon, what were you thinking when you bought that poster?

I want a rematch!!! A re-kiss! Those lips have been apart for what, more than 4 years! Eric could use some lesbianic stimulation too!

It just puzzles me stupidly as to why would Pope Benedict and most churches around the world detest the use of condoms. Understandably they are upholding their “pro-life” campaign/belief.

My question is, just spurred by watching Big O, that since they believe that children are god-send, would the use of condom stop the almighty?

Really if you think about it, since god works in mysterious way and even virgin Mary got preggy by staying a V, how does someone stop pregnancy by using a condom? It would just be in vain wouldn’t it?

Amy xxx: I will wear a condom on my partner

We have yet to take one. I hope we do it soon before all our best features are lost to time.

Every species has its own set of rules governing the development and continuity. We learn by example. We learn by imitating the energy patterns of others. People often say they are turning into their parents.

It’s quite evident with my Dad as he’s sometimes my grandpa. With my Mom, I can’t say too much because I didn’t spend much time at all with my maternal grandparents.

I think I am turning into my parents more than I dare to admit. Being controlling, opinionated, OCD, critical… From what I have seen, it is plausible that despite popular belief (Other factors being media and peer), parental influence is the most significant mould that a child grows in. Just compare ourselves to animals, all the younglings learn from the parents – we are not excluded.

We look up to our parents in almost every situation when we’re young. There are intrinsic values inevitably implanted on our minds by our parents’ actions. No matter how much you love or despise your parents, there will be a part of you that imitates them. Just think about the ways you treat your partners, friends, siblings and even yourself.

It is not easy being a parent. A penguin parent has to swim in the sea for 20 hours a day to gather enough food for its family. How much more can it teach its younglings in 4 hours? The question which is not easy to answer and which most people are not aware of it – are we fit to become parents? How well can you answer this question? Children are easily impressionable – whatever parents do will be copied consciously or not.

The education system we have is focused on how you fish in the ocean for 20 hours a day. Continuity of life is such an immense task. A child molester, who has been molested him/herself – can a judge put all the blame solely on this person? Or are there more perpetrators? From the point of contract – do we have to be responsible for contributory negligence?

How much of your parents is living in you?

Excuses Excuses!

Paul: Yeah, but I still know how hot it is outside.

I am a Paul. Even though I do go swimming when it’s 12C outside, I would come up with a lot of excuses if I had decided to go to the gym or for a run. It would go like this…

Alfred: I can’t go to the gym. It’s too cold.

Lawrence: But the gym is air-conditioned…

Alfred: Yeah, but it’s stuffy in the gym coz of the heating. And it is cold walking to the gym.

Honestly, I can’t run – I have never been able to run consistently.

Alfred: I can’t go for a run. It’s too hot.

Lawrence: But you can wear sunnies.

Alfred: Yeah, but… Yeah… But…. Yeah, but, yeah, but! I hate the dangling keys in my pocket.

I think it’d be motivating if I married someone who had more excuses that I would. I love showing off that I am better.

One of them is criticising religion.

Recently Pope Benedict spoke about the use of condom, which in his opinion would fuel AIDS pandemic. Wow, such an insight.

So, does it mean the church’s pro-life principle propagate births of HIV-infected babies? This is something that I can’t get through my thick skull – they always talk about a child is god-sent and his or her faith is tested by the path chosen by god. When a baby grows up, how do you answer his/her question, “God wants to test me by giving me AIDS?”.

First of all, what does a child know about faith? Does a baby develop faith already when s/he is in the womb? So in order for me to believe how mysterious god’s ways are, I have to accept that god injects both HIV virus and faith into an embryo upon conception? How do you tell that to so many African children, who will probably not live past 20 years old. If a woman or a man is HIV+, why does god still want to give him/her a baby? As if testing the faith of an adult isn’t enough that a baby is put on the line too?

Sitting in such a high position, one can’t be help being ignorant. A very funny question – according to most faiths, Christianity included, everything is made by god; if we build a rocket and hope it’ll fly to Venus, we know it’ll depend on god’s endorsement – so, isn’t the invention of condom a not so mysterious way of god telling us to use it? That’s why I cannot accept religion – one way they are always so righteous about something but then totally inconsistent about other.

If it is not god’s way, why are there rubber trees? It also begs the very very question – who put HIV virus among us? I can’t help wondering why put so many people on earth (and deplete all the resources) only to bring them back to his bosoms? Is it some sort of an accelerated “life” that god puts people on a hot HIV train?

I have said it before, if god wants everyone back to heaven or hell, why do doctors save lives? Is IVF god’s way too? If god makes someone barren or shoot blanks, you think medical intervention will not earn you a strike in his book? And church also stands against abortion.

Perhaps the pope should try use his penis once to find out why people have to use condoms to enjoy his creations. I don’t know why people don’t ask how come the Pope can’t have sex or children? If his genes are so good for mankind, wouldn’t it make sense for the Pope to have more children to spread god’s love?

If it’s god’s way to get people back to heaven or hell, how are we supposed to stop it? And why would we if heaven is better than earth?

this is what I am talking about!

Old lady turns me OFF

2009-02-24T22:47:00.001+11:00

So I was swimming…. There was a Chinese lady in her 60s in the pool too. I had always felt peculiar towards this woman as she always brought a bucket to the pool with her.

So yesterday, she finished swimming and got out of the water. I am no peeping Tom but I couldn't help it when I saw her filling the bucket up with water from a tap at the side of the pool. I had not paid attention to her before except yesterday as I was intrigued.

Like a magician, I suddenly saw a small plastic cup being held under the tap and she drank the water. OK she must be thirsty, I thought, which was reasonable…. beats drinking chlorinated pool water right?

She didn’t stop there. Next I saw her picking up the bucket and walked towards another side of the pool house. She then proceeded to do the unthinkable – she used the water to clean herself!!!! You’ve guessed it right – she used the cup to pour water down her body!!! I noticed she tried to stand close to the glass wall and further away from the pool, but the water inevitably flowed into the pool!!!

And you think she would stop there… Of course, I can only imagine it’s uncomfortable being in a wet swim suit. This woman of 60 years, changed under her robe, which was followed by, more water in the bucket, and she washed her swim suit in the bucket of water!!!! I nearly drowned myself by now.

What killed me next was that after finishing her washing, she then splashed the washing water against the glass wall. I was drowning in her “after-wash”, literally,

God, not only she’s old, she’s slow!!!! Keeping in mind that I still had a very small reserve of respect for old birds, I tried to stay in the pool as long as I could fight off every urge to get out of the water, but her movements exhibited true definition of slowness.

Rest assured, I used very strong shower gel that day.

On another note, when I found out my friend’s mother had been diagnosed with breast cancer and had gone through a mastectomy, I felt terribly sorry and gave her a hug. I also said,
“Please give her my breast”.

Whilst we’re on the penis, pardon me, peanut matter. I argued with my sister before about airlines serving penis, bollocks, of course I meant peanuts, that I disagreed with such a service as people with a penis (OK I can’t help it) peanut allergy may find themselves having allergic attacks in 36000 miles above ground.

Academy Award 2009

2009-02-14T18:23:00.001+11:00

My crystal ball says…

Best Picture Nominees: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Frost/Nixon, Milk, The Reader and Slumdog Millionaire.

My pick would be Slumdog, which combines drama, comedy and romance all in one. The script was believable and all the actors, especially the young ones were amazing. The Bollywood dance at the end of the movie was a nice nice touch. People who have grown up watching Bollywood movies will remember this scene fondly.

I have not watched Frost/Nixon. I would say Benjamin Button and The Reader are tied for second place. Both are haunting and surreal, from the storyline. Milk was actually disappointing – it’s more like a documentary instead of a feature film.

The directors of the same movies above are nominated for best directors. I am divided between Slumdog and The Reader.

As for Best Actress, Anne Hathaway (Rachel Getting Married) gave a really strong and different performance but perhaps a little bit well-controlled when I had expected her to go wilder. I haven’t watched Angelina Jolie in Changeling nor Melissa Leo in Frozen River. Meryl Streep gave quite a standard performance in Doubt but the layers peeled too late in the movie whilst I had expected the drama to unfold earlier. Kate Winslet is whom I would put my money on for her role in The Reader – she portrayed a lady who was willing to die for being shameful of just being illiterate. And it’s about time that Kate won one after being nominated 6 times.

I felt that Penelope Cruz was really different and she gave a break-through performance in Vicky Cristina Barcelona (though I thought the story sucked). I wanted to watch her performance in Volver, for which she was also nominated, but the version I downloaded was without subtitles. Amy Adams portrayed a young naive nun very very nicely in Doubt; whilst Viola Davis had a short air-time for being the mom of a gay (black) boy she managed to get the point across for being scared of her homophobic husband and wanting for the son to just survive. I was surprised to see Taraji P Henson play Benjamin’s mother and it was a pleasant surprise. So of all these four fabulous supporting actresses, my pick would be Amy Adams, for being young, inexperienced, scared but still trying to stand up for what she believed in.

Father Figure?

2009-01-14T10:06:00.001+11:00

I think our relationships with our father have deteriorated lately, more so lately. By ours, I mean my siblings and mom and a cousin who still lives with us.

What seems to be the problem? Is it ours or is it his? Can I hate him whilst still living under his roof? Is that why I have been desperately struggling for my way out? Is it Mom whom I am worried about? Children may get out but the wife… that seems to be the trap of wedding vows. What if I get out but my siblings get stuck? Do I encourage them to get out too? Or should I be selfish and be happy as someone is there to bite the bullet?

So why is it so hard? What seems to be unbearable? After years of analysing… I have to put part of the blame on my grandfather. My father didn’t grow up having fatherly acknowledgement as my grandpa had 2 families. I think my Dad struggled for his whole life to be acknowledged by someone, anyone.

Why would I say that – grandpa used to be mean to Dad yet Dad took good care of him, despite grandpa openly expressed his hatred for him in front of his children of the other wife. Grandpa didn’t like or appreciate anything that Dad did for him. Dad even shouldered some responsibilities that grandpa should have, like taking care 6 children left behind by my uncle when he died of cancer. Dad was only 19 and he had to give up school. Despite being shoved into hot oil against all his will, Dad became successful in business.

As long as I can recall, Dad has been telling EVERYONE about his life story. How he gave up taking SPM, how he sacrificed his adoptive family (he was staying with an uncle) to come help his brother etc.. Everyone, ranging from a passenger on a train to a relative – his life story is played on repeat, which goes on and on. Just recently we attended a wedding and were seated with someone whom we didn’t know. After five minutes, they too learned of Dad’s life story.

Fishing for compliment aside, Dad constantly seeks approval and acknowledgement. Sometimes I am so angry at him for repeating his stories – as if he’s pressuring us in living our lives his way. I want to be respectful and grateful but whenever he praises himself, it annoys me. A 60-year-old man, who doesn’t understand how annoying he is, I think that is really shameful.

Dad never really understands or is emphatic about someone else. Everything he does, he claims that he understands about others’ feelings – but he only cares about his. For example, if he buys you breakfast, he won’t have asked you before but he’ll just buy whatever HE wants and EXPECTS you to like it. If you don’t, he’ll quote one of his most-frequently used sayings, one that has earned platinum frequent flying points, that 你不会做人 (you don’t know how to be a human or understanding).

Everyday, he complains and boasts about how early he has to get back to the office, boil water and make big pots of tea for everyone. He claims that he’s very busy yet he still does it. Is that not fishing for compliments? So when I am back in Malaysia, I drink tea, even cold one, 24/7. If you have guessed, you will have guessed correctly – if you don’t drink, again, 你不会做人. If mom or cousin makes other drinks, he’ll purposely not drink what they have made and purposely make more tea. Is that not jealousy? Is that not fishing for compliments? How do I tell a 60yo man that he’s utterly a child?

Whenever I work with, under or for him, there’s only one thing you will get out of it – that he is experienced and he’s done it many times. Every sentence that comes out of his mouth will either start or end with that. Every instruction that comes out of his mouth, I just wish he would shut up. Just STFU. Nowadays, no one pays attention to him anymore. We’re all scared of him. Not the bomb-will-kill-you kind of scare, it’s the we don’t want wake up a tipsy, easily annoyed, old giant, who may just yell at you with tonnes of 道理. How does one learn under a boss who is ever only so proud of what he has done? How does one listen when all one hears is “I’ve done this many times, I am so experienced in this….” – it is repeated endless times daily. It even happens when we are grocery shopping!!!! That he can choose the best products as he’s seen it all.

I can still run and escape as long as I am not in the same vehicle with him. It is the worst pain imaginable when one is in the same vehicle with him. He says everything at least twice. He says everything again and again from what’s happened yesterday, last year, 10, 20 or 30 years ago. Whenever he’s onto something or hates someone, that’s all he talks about, which can go on for years. He used to hate my aunty, so all we heard about was how lazy she was. He used to hate my other cousin, so all we heard about was how cunning he was. He didn’t like how Mom treated one of their staff, he would just tell his thoughts on it again and again, even thought the event took place two years ago.

Dad is a person that doesn’t listen and doesn’t bow down. He is stubborn and that often leads to others being blamed or ignored. Just because he can’t listen or even bother to entertain others’ ideas. All he thinks is right. Everyone else, nope. When someone does something wrong, you know it’ll become a radio hit song for a long time; if he makes a mistake, you know it’s a one-hit wonder. Whenever he says something, he can’t take it back because he loves face and he can’t lose.

It is like hell whenever we have big dinna with extended families. Dad doesn’t know how to estimate the amount of food to be ordered but he always wants to do it. He would say, I’ve ordered lots of food – most of the times he under-ordered, others over. It is funny how he can be so, how do I put it, hard to deal with. If he has in mind that he’s ordered for 12 person and only 10 are attending, he will invite relatives whom we rarely speak to, just to make it worth his money. It always ends up all of us feeling embarrassed. He can’t take back what he has thought, not only what he has said! When the food ordered isn’t enough, he doesn’t want to order extra. In his mind, everything has to be the way he’s thought it’d be. Every time we have dinna outside, it usually ends sourly due to what he says or acts. He always affects our mood badly.

I do think we seldom give him compliments or approvals in recent years. But I dunno how we can do it if it’s not reciprocated. He really admired one of my cousins who used to work for him. Every thing she did matched his way of thinking. So almost every other day, he would bring up the topic of how good my cousin was and how inadequate the rest of us are. If we ever do mention some wonderful things other men/fathers have done, he would quickly and fervently dismiss and deny it. The same thing goes for when we mention how profitable a particular business someone else is doing.

Is our problem expectation? Are we expecting something unrealistic from him? Are we wishing for him to be someone he’s not? Is he doing the same thing? Life is really no fun with him. Almost everything we do must be economical. Almost everything we do must be according to his ways. He has the anal tendency of going against what you say, just to prove that he can do something. Whenever you say something, he must say or do otherwise.

I feel like shouting at him at times, especially he claims that how well-liked he is amongst his school mates. I think he’s missing the point that those people do not share his life. Those people do not live with him. How would you feel if someone constantly tells you how to pick up bits of food left on the table? His royal way is to tear a small bit of tissue paper and pick the food bits up, one by one. You will be told not to use a table cloth because it’s not economical. During the monsoon season, how would his friends feel if they are asked to wipe the cars EVERY TIME after they have got in the rain? Even if it’s at 2a.m.? It is OK you don’t do it – but you will get an earful the next morning – of how persistent he is, of how he has been successful by being disciplined his whole life. I still remember when we first got our pet dogs, he would report every time he picked up after the dogs or after he fed them. The busier he is, the more he wants to do, the more he wants to boast about. What is wrong with this man? He claims that he’s the busiest person, yet he won’t let us do something that we can do.

I don’t know whose father thinks like this: we’re not allowed to switch on lights when we’re not at home. Not even when it’s dark or when we can’t see. He joined a voluntary army team before and he got a gun. He said he would be happy for thieves to rob our house so that he could use the gun. So when we get home at night, there’s nothing to be seen really. He hates us wasting electricity, but we subscribe to 2 Astro!! One at home and one at office, which no one watches really. When I wanted to cancel some shows subscribed, guess what happened? Even the one at home, he (hence us), only watches one channel. The subscription for an account is over RM120 per month. Our electricity bill is over RM200 per month. He wants to save electricity but he doesn’t care about spending on fuel. We have 3 cars, two of them can’t be in the rain. So every day, in addition to his already busy business life, he has to strategise which car WE can and cannot drive. He would even call from office just to tell you which one to drive. If it rains and only one car can be driven, he doesn’t mind making rounds just to transport us, as long as only one car is used and other don’t get wet.

Perhaps I can already write an autobiography or a real-life story. Mom certainly can be the biggest contributor. I think my father really needs to read more and interact more with others. But what’s the use and what’s the success rate? Every time he opens his mouth, he talks about himself. I will not be very surprised if he is treated by us the way his father was treated by his other half siblings – abandoned, for my grandpa was a very difficult person too. My grandma said to him before she died, that his life would be very difficult if she died first. She was right.

I don’t know if I should be complaining seeing that we are financially sufficient, provided by Dad. I should be content but I am not. I used to enjoy family dinner but I no longer do. Each time it feels like I am treading on a miners field. In others’ ears, I may have sounded like an unappreciative son of a gun but that’s how I feel. I really feel for Mom and I feel really selfish if I run away from home and have Mom alone with him, feeling miserable for the rest of her life.

One can’t choose one’s parents and one’s children. But how do I deal with this? I’ve begun to under why some people choose not to live with their parents or in laws, and why this is more prevalent amongst westerners. They are smarter. Yes, there are perks for living with your parents, it’s just perhaps they are may not be worth it; for everyday I no longer wish to be with my father as spending time with him is really an emotional torture.

Kylie – yay!!! Such a great and adrenaline-pumped night! Great songs, great choreography, great dancer and great lighting!

I danced like crazy. Whenever her earlier songs like I Believe in You, On a Night Like This, Your Disco Needs You, Step Back in Time, Love at First Sight and I Should be So Lucky were sung, I just couldn’t stop singing to them until I lost my voice.

My ears are still ringing… and if someone says anything to me now, I would only hear half because my right ear is still clogged.

The encore, which consisted of Love at First Sight and I Should Be So Lucky, sent everyone frenzy. And I am glad that I did my homework in learning most of the lyrics.

Thank you Kylie – a very nice ending to my 7 years in Melbourne.

I’ll repel any that comes in 1 meter radius from me.

Yes I am a SATC whore and I am becoming one of them. So today, live experience one – Miranda and family day at her gym, where she nearly had weight bar fall onto her chest – I was attacked by some little demons at a pool. This wasn’t the first time. And every time – the parents assumed that it wouldn’t matter.

When someone of the age over 18 doesn’t know something of civic duty, we call them ignorant. Children are ignorant too. Parents who behaving in an assuming way are to be blamed. Just control your freaks! Don’t expect me to be tolerant of your spawns. I don’t have to. It is not my civic duty to give away my 30 minutes at the pool for children. It is not my civic duty to give up my rights for children!

That is it – next time when it happens, I’ll definitely speak up to the parents. If you can’t control them, please tie the tubes up.

I’m so sick of everything that is “pro-family”. So what, single people don’t count? You don’t have to help out single people too? Every time I see on the news, we’re gonna make something that is more family-friendly or for working family. Hey, no one asks these people to reproduce, no one asks these people to produce more CO2-producing things. If you wanna have them, please don’t expect my courtesy to give up my pool for you!

of Attraction that I have come into contact with today.

Many people have heard about the celebrated ideology about the Law of Attraction, which was made famous by the TV Queen, Oprah.

As I was doing the research for my interview with EY, I found that the company of one of my lecturers at Melb Uni, had merged with EY. EY didn’t used to have an actuarial team. I thought to myself, oh no, am I gonna see Jules?

Some lecturers are friendly (and bulli-able) both in and out of the lecture theatre. Jules (and DD) was not one of them. At least he appeared to be quite stern in class. After the interview I was proven wrong too.

So you must have guessed – yes I got Jules as my interviewer!! I had been thinking, oh shit, what I am going to do if I got him? In my mind, I was thinking it would better to be interviewed by some stranger. I had been, since I had found out, protesting the idea of meeting Jules at my interview.

What are the chances, you ask… I should have known – when I got up to level 23, I saw a very familiar face, which I had not expected at all. Deric put it quite adequately, that he and I were the old farts. It was a very clear sign! Things from your past may come in a pair!

The law the law… I was telling the other candidates about Askit and the man behind it. I was wishing out loud that I didn’t wanna get him. Deric and I were waiting for our turns. Wendy came back into the waiting room, followed by Jules. Now that confirmed that either one of us would get Jules.

Moments, which felt like months, passed. A more-than-middle-aged man came in and he took Deric. He took Deric! What are the chances!!! The more I resisted it, the more I attracted it. The Law of Attraction. I really got Jules in the end, which turned out to be quite a nice surprise actually. I had totally underestimated the power of “familiar” in a nervous situation. I didn’t even sweat at all, given my track record.

Geez, the other candidates never even heard of “the Law of Attraction” when I told them about it. All I got was, “You are attracted to Jules”?

Next time, if there’s one, I see them – I gotta introduce them to the Law of O.

Very smart choice of reason, opposing against Prop 8. Obama should make it a personal quest indeed.

Love this!!!

Thanks to the author, justice!!!

After Abdul Rahman, the rest of the PM are all flawed in a lot of ways. Abdul Razak was the mind behind 513, who plotted for the marching & celebrating opposition to clash with his own Malay army, after BN lost to the opposition. This was done even though the then PM instructed otherwise. Of course after the riot, Abdul Razak overthrew Abdul Rahman and became the 2nd PM.

I have nothing much to say about Hussein Onn. Except perhaps he was the one that started using keris to stab Chinese. I need to get my facts. Got my facts – he wasn’t the one with the Malay dagger. But his fault would be spawning the evil next generation, Hishammuddin Hussein, who threatened, several times, to stab the Chinese with a keris.

Mahathir – supposedly the most glamorous one. He’s the best. Best in inflicting social injustice and crying at the right moment (better than Meryl Streep). He interfered with the judiciary by brain-washing judges and dictating court decisions before a trial even started, reduced the power of the Sultans and the King, set-up Money. Inc in UMNO, copied Abdul Razak’s trick in making Operation Lalang in 1988 a success, limited media transparency and freedom by jailing and suing journalists, played Two-Face in sucking up to the Chinese when he needed the votes and fucking them (the bad way) when he didn’t, continued to influence politics when he’d have died and also totally denied his Indian descent father. Basically he’s like a bastard relative that has lived too long to cause pain all around. Not to mention his involvement in bringing down Abdul Rahman.

Abdullah Badawi – the sleeping beauty. He recently attended some formal function in Kuching and was caught falling asleep again! He suffers worse than erectile dysfunction – because his whole body and mind shut down all the time. What can I say more than calling him a limp dick and he has sucked a lot of erm, OK I’ll be nice, money. No project that he has taken on has been successful. Everything has been half baked. He is not only a sleeping beauty but also an external-beauty-only pageant. Everything he has done is only in the NAME. He just can’t get it up!

The upcoming PM – one that has successfully assured UMNO Malaysian Members of Parliament, that their interests and bank accounts will be taken care of. This bunch of losers, apparently losing all logic and conscience, conveniently overlooks the fact that this PM-to-be is alleged to have involved himself with having sex with a Mongolian woman, blowing her up with explosives, fixing court outcomes and the latest helicopter bidding. As long as these MP’s finances are taken care of, Najib will sit comfortably on his PM chair. And did I forget: Najib was also the one that would bathe his keris in Chinese blood.

Go visit Malaysia people. But please avoid having sex with any government officials. You may not even have a body for your family to bury. For anything – I don’t blame these politicians too much, because it’s Malaysians who are stupid. Stupid enough to be screwed in displeasure.

B&S

2008-10-17T12:44:00.001+11:00

Again and again I have professed my love for B&S. The fatal attraction, I’m not even sure if it started because one very very similar issue. But now I’m seeing very similar pattern in some events. It seems that The Chuahs could be very well the Walkers. A similarity that I really didn’t see coming to such a close mimic.

Age-old question

2008-10-17T09:58:00.001+11:00

Can men really be trusted? Gay or straight , or people generally – really? Are we supposed to be tied down with one person? Financially, isn’t that concentration risk to the maximum? We diversify our portfolio but we dump every thing on one person. Can men really be trusted or are we wanting the impossible?

Luckily I have developed immunisation by rationalizing love as no more than chemical reaction in my brains and body. I know I’ll never betray/cheat on myself hence there will be no heart break. Big risk big return? I’m not that sort of person.

ANGRY!!!

2008-10-11T17:56:00.001+11:00

It’s been a while since I last blogged about Malaysian politics. Ever since RPK’s detention, I feel that a part of me is gone with him too.

Nevertheless, seeing this report has made me boil.

尊阿都拉为民主改革之父许子根吁放内安法扣留者

The Father of Revolution. This time Kor Su Koon has gone too far. Too far! Kissing UMNO’s ass like this – this is barulah unnatural sexual behaviour!!!! I am so angry.

Bodohwi has not done anything that is worth mentioning at all other than contributing to the Australian economy! He started with “Tak Nak” that should be reducing smoking. We tak-nak you lah Bodohwi. Then he moved on to corruption. Who’s caught? That stupid Zakaria died (or was allegedly killed) just one day after his scandal of building a mansion from public money was exposed. Corruption has never been worse with everyone tied to him getting more under-the-table money and contracts.

Judiciary reform – what have we seen? He didn’t even want to meet with the people for a conversation despite openly talking about “I wanna listen to the truths” – truth my ass!!!!!!!! Inter-faith dialogues were stopped. Human-right activists detained indefinitely one after another. High-profile criminals like the DPM are protected. The de-facto Law Minister, appointed by Bodohwi, fired himself after the arrest of RPK, Teresa Kok and Tan Cheng Hoon.

May 13 – Painful History

2008-10-04T15:59:00.001+10:00

The government has screened this topic out of textbooks, deeming it none other than a so-called sensitive issue. The fact remains, the force behind this ugly event was very much politically encouraged. The culprits are none other than some of the big names like the 2nd Prime Minister, Razak and the 4th PM, Mahathir.

All Malaysian should read these articles exposed by none other than RPK.

Swimming pool Etiquette?

2008-09-30T17:03:00.001+10:00

I'm not sure if I'm too "ulu" or what... As I was resting at the edge of the pool, this gentleman who had finished swimming got up. He was then drying himself with a small towel.

When he was done, something unthinkable happened. He squeezed the water from his towel back into the pool.

Now you've learned a new trick on saving water.

Luckily my goggles were powered to capture such memorable moment.

2 more sleeps

2008-09-27T11:37:00.001+10:00

till I can download the season 3 premiere of only my favouritest TV series on earth.

Another cool Gadget

2008-09-27T10:58:00.001+10:00

that I wanna introduce is Google Chrome. It's definitely a cool browser. Having dumped Internet Explorer and tried Safari and Mozilla in 2 days, I got rid of them even quicker. Luckily Google had the answer!

I love the download feature, after which you've selected the folder for download, the downloaded file will appear at the bottom of the browser and you just have to click to open it immediately. You could also view recently downloaded files. I so love it when I'm opening a Mininova file - makes it easy for downloading torrents.

I love its tab browsing very very much! It fits my usage like a glove. Often times I love to open lots of tabs and close lots of tabs continuously. Using IE was such a pain, its tab size always changes after one tab has been close. So one has gotta keep moving one's mouse to "X" the tab. But with Chrome, the work is easy! When I'm shutting down tabs, it doesn't even open the tabs that I wanna close. The size of the tabs stay constant (tab sizes become smaller and smaller when you open many tabs) and I just "X" all the way until I'm satisfied!

The next feature that I adore is password/identity saving. The improvement I have experienced, compared to IE, is tremendous. It doesn't have a pop-up like IE, but a bar (like Mozilla) below the address bar, that asks me if I want to save password/identity. And it works on so many web sites that IE doesn't! And one best thing about it being a product of Google is that I no longer have to sign in (again and again and again on IE) when I'm leaving comments on blogspot. What a relief! I don't even have to sign in again and again to go into Sherly's blog as I'm already in Google world!

Another pet peeve of mine, as stated above, is to open many many tabs at the same time. Let's face it, we are using broadband, we have to let many pages load at the same time so that I can quickly move on to the next when I'm done reading the current page. IE does this quite well but Mozilla and Safari doesn't. Chrome hits the right balance for me. It allows opening web pages in the background so it doesn't interrupt my current reading (unlike Mozilla and Safari).

One thing that either Mozilla or Safari (I can't remember, as I only used them for one day each) does well is its photo saving ability. I hate it when a browser keeps opening a common folder instead of a folder that I have already saved the previous picture in. It annoys me that I have to click click click. I really think they don't understand what tab browsing really means if they can't incorporate this feature into their browser. Or perhaps it could be my cookies not being enabled (which I doubt). If I'm looking at someone's blog with many scenery pictures, I want to be able to save them into one folder. And also none of these browsers allows me to save a picture directly by just right clicking. It would only let me save the size that is displayed, but not the full resolution one.

loving iTunes 8!!

2008-09-27T09:29:00.001+10:00

Loving the album-cover feature so much! My pain-in-the-ass anal practice of having all album covers for all my songs has finally paid off. I love to see everything pretty and neat!

I don't understand why people still stay with Windows Media Player, when they can use such a cool software than can do so much to the ears and eyes.

You are the APPLE in my eyes.

Bye Bye CT8

Not so Sticky & Sweet

2008-09-23T10:17:00.001+10:00

She said the following for not coming to Australia to do her Confessions Tour in 2006:

To my fans in Australia,

Please forgive me. I really did hope and expect to come to Australia during the Confessions Tour and asked my managers to try to include some shows there. I have fond memories from previous tours. Unfortunately, the logistics just didn't work out this time around. We looked into going from Japan to Australia and ending the show there but I have to get my kids back into school in England and they are, as you can understand, my most important priority. The important thing to remember is that I'm not retiring anytime soon and I am gonna get to Australia as soon as I can. You remain in my heart and Thank you for your continued love & support.

Love, Madonna

Again, she's not coming to Australia to do the Sticky and Sweet Tour in 2008.

I could give it to her for not coming to Australia in 2006 when she finished touring at the end of September. Supposedly her children really had to go back to so-called schools. However her S&S tour spans from August to December! So what, her children are doing online education this year?

She didn't even bother coming up with a reason for not visiting Australia this time. I have another child to steal from Ethiopia or Transylvania.

Just admit it bitch - we are too far away and couldn't afford to pay you for all the logistic costs. Very Kathy-Griffin-ly, she would say to our faces, SUCK IT BITCHES!

Free Raja Petra Kamaruddin and Others Held Under the Internal Security Act

2008-09-20T21:27:00.001+10:00

Now that Teresa Kok and Tan Hoon Cheng have been freed, we need to exert more pressure on the government to free our hero RPK.

Sign the petition here.

I'm very worried that Bodohwi is finally losing power and might be stepping down earlier than planned. If he steps down, the successor will be a bigger monster. Bodohwi is a sleeping beauty (for the lack of a better term) but Najis will be a much worse enemy for the opposition to go up against. Najis appeals to a greater number of UMNO MP's hence making it just that more impossible to cause defection.

Being one that openly and proudly threatened to bathe a Malay sword with Chinese blood, I really "have no eyes" to see what shall happen next. All the assholes in UMNO and BN will just shut one eye to his involvement in killing Altantuya, settting up Anwar with Sodomy 2008 and stealing money from the Defense Ministry.

Again I have to stress that there's no use in saying things like why UMNO or MCA don't get what the people want, especially after the 308 political Tsunami. It's not that they don't get it - they don't have to! Because they have their own bank accounts to worry about. Why worry about the country and changing it for the better? All the big shots have their self interests to take care of. Government funding is their source income - why so stupid and throw it away? Bodohwi or Najis, they just want their income protected!

It comes down to the remaining Malay UMNO voters to realise that they have been robbed by UMNO, of supposedly their aboriginal rights. Yes they have such rights but only the top few get to enjoy it. I think a powerful speech should be given by the now ruling Agong, to the Malays - we have been robbed by UMNO. Do you realise it? UMNO has cut off all our "benefits". We have all been fucked by UMNO. The grass root Malays have to hear it from the Agong, as all the royal rulers have been effectively made into puppets by Dr M since the 80s.

In my opinion, Anwar has to move faster and get to the Agong for his appointment as the new PM. Otherwise, as the UMNO MP's already know this hence they are pushing for Najis to take the top position of the country. As soon as Najis seizes power, I'm sure the first thing he will do is to sodomize Anwar in the most pleasurable way. All the opposition leaders will be arrested under the ISA indefinitely. When Najis becomes the PM, all hope will be lost because this Chinese hater (not in the literal sense as I'm sure he just 'hates' the Chinese to get Malay votes) will do ANYTHING, like his father, to end power struggle in UMNO and the country. When Najis becomes the PM, all the judges and lawyers handling Altantuya's case will be silenced forever. RPK will warm his 6-by-8 cell with his bare ass. And that's only the beginning.

At this point, ironically, I hope Bodohwi holds up against Najis and his minions, as long as he can. Anwar, who might have been giving empty promises on defected MP's, needs to act quickly otherwise prepare to be sunken with the French-made submarines or blown up by the remaining explosive powder to kill Altantuya.

What's for dessert?

Unfortunate gift from the UK = abused by political whores

More arrested!

2008-09-13T08:47:00.001+10:00

Seputih MP and Selangor state executive councillor Teresa Kok and Sin Chew Jit Poh reporter Tan Hoon Cheng have also been arrested under the ISA!!

On one hand I'm so glad to hear opposition Chinese women have risen to prominence, worthy of the ISA, on the other I'm worried about their safety. Those police dogs have no mercy. I wish someone would come up with a police logo with dogs on and I wanna promote it!

The Only Way to Abolish ISA: Crossovers & Supporting the Opposition! I have been saying this since day 0.

The people are stupid in the eyes of the government. They think we're ostriches which bury our heads in the sand. Heck, they are trying to push our heads into the sand. But they don't know we have a periscope! And I'm glad they keep showing they are a one-trick pony.

I'm glad now they have detained a prominent royalty RPK and 2 Chinese. What more can we ask? The police have actually given us the greatest gift ever - the cause. Now not only the Indian (Hindraf), the Malay and the Chinese too - woohoo, all Malaysian - will rise. Tsunami will come again and this time Bodohwi, Najis and Mahathir (can anyone think of something funny for his name?) will drown for good.

GERAKAN should immediately detach from BN; Sabah's 进步党 shouldn't wait any longer to be fired from BN. The ball-less dogs MCA should really grow a pair otherwise they will 垫尸底 for BN.

Shame that most media in Malaysia are controlled by the government. Those who aren't should stop saying things like "The government should realise and change.." bla bla. No, no one should expect them to change. Firstly they won't because they have too much at stake. Secondly we need to let them reveal the big bad (old) wolf underneath that sheep skin. What they should report - how and when Anwar will form new government and the development of Altantuya's murder trial. I learned this from John Howard - I don't give free publicity to my opponents, which is exactly what the government is doing. The people are already burning with charcoal and they are given more fuel to burn brighter.

章瑛說，陳雲清在警局是被兩名女警牽著左右手，雖然雲清看起很鎮定，但眼眶有淚，看了讓人心酸。

我看了，鼻一酸，眼泪就哗啦滚下来。明天就是中秋节了，陈云清及郭素沁却人在牢里，替人民请命。

雲淡風高水自清
素颜沁心志不移
中秋月圆人不圆
抬头明月照民心

One of the versions of the origin of 中秋节 is that the Ming Dynasty was formed because of mooncake. As the Mongols didn't eat mooncakes, the rebellion inserted a short note in the mooncakes and gave them to everyone. The note told them to kill all the Mongolians on the 15th of the 8th month. Perhaps we can see something similar this time?

At this very grave moment, the ruling government is tempting the opposition to riot and taking the chance to declare the state of emergency. That way, they will be able to capture all opposition and continue to rule for another 20 years. I hope Anwar knows what to do next. We're all waiting for the tide to start.

RPK - ISA

2008-09-13T00:05:00.001+10:00

RPK has been arrested by ISA.

Well, I can't say I'm totally surprised as RPK said before it very well would happen. I was very grateful for ABC to have shown a documentary of the by election and interview with RPK a few days ago.

I feel sad for RPK but I think it is necessary for him to be detained under ISA. He knew it was coming and he was prepared for it. He is our HERO.

The detention was inevitable and it is paramount that the police actually detained him under ISA, which is blunt, cruel and injustice as ever before. It has always been used to the benefit of the ruling party in order for them to control their opponents. With RPK's detention, UMNO has no doubt nailed itself to the coffin. The people will be unrest. The people will rise.

Of all the "nasty" things RPK has said on his blog, he was detained for defaming islam and not the government. Funny or not? So the government is now the speaker of islam? Again and again, the government has chosen to act on very childish and self-interest reasons.

What a perfect timing, just after Ahmad's suspension. So now when people ask how come Ahmad isn't under ISA, they would just say he's already been suspended. Between a man who discusses islam and one that spreads seditious racial sentiments, we arrest the former. The government is very scared indeed.

The government/ruling party, is playing the racial card for the 3rd time. In 1969 (513) and 1988-1990, they played with the racial and religious cards openly and without shame. When they are losing the Malay votes, they abuse the fear of losing aboriginal rights among the Malays. Is it coincidental these things have to happen every 20 years? This time the opening act was Ahmad. We still haven't climaxed yet.

That's why RPK was charged for defaming islam and not the government. Firstly they want the conservative, in other words ignorant, Malays and those sitting on the fence not to support RPK (hence Anwar) because of the anti-islam position he's deemed to take. Secondly, why tell the people the reasons why RPK has been criticising the government for. Who would want their dirty laundry to be aired again and again, free of charge, especially when the ruling party is losing.

So very smart.

Abdul Razak (1969) used it, Mahathir is a master at it (1988-90) and now Abdullah and Najib. Nearly 40 years after 1969, can Malaysian wake up and smell the shit? We fell for it twice, is 3rd time a charm? Or an alarm not alarming enough?

I didn't understand why people say politic is nasty when I was a boy. I think I've started to now. I started by advocating the total destruction of Barisan National and racial administration and I stand by it. BN and its constituents have to go. Period.

Please pray for RPK. He had "insulted" a few times the Inspector General and the national prosecutor - I won't be surprised if they punch him again, as per Anwar by the then IG.

The detention lasts for 60 days. Today is the 12th. I'm thinking, he should only be detained for, say 5 days at the most, if the thing that's supposed to happen happens.

Touring Divas

2008-09-06T16:50:00.001+10:00

These are the 4 tours that I desperately would like to see in 2008!!! But only Kylie's X tour is the possible one but I might not be in Australia already.

I would have to say, the shows I look forward to the most are Tina Turner and Cher's tours. These two "aged" divas are rocking it up better than any younger singers could ever dream of. Cher is 61 and Tina 68! Incredible aren't they?

Not a big fan of Madge this time even though I would like still to see her live. This money sucker isn't coming to Australia anytime soon. I bet she'll still be able to sell a concert when she's 78!

Will have to get their DVDs I suppose.

猪狗不如：阿末是回來了。但是他一句“我沒做錯，為甚麼我要道歉？”無疑將更激怒民心；也顯現出作為政治人物，欠缺與人民真誠面對面的思維。

菩萨心：中國總理溫家寶選擇了不一樣的政治路線：四川大地震時，他在第一時間趕到災區，給人民信心喊話。他撫慰百萬顆受傷無助的心，讓歷經人間浩劫的人民，重現“要好好活著”的希望。之後，日理萬機的他還親自用毛筆字給災區學童回信，出席北川中學臨時學校秋季開學典禮。

陳慧嬌‧一句道歉真的這麼難嗎？

好戏还在后头，鄭丁賢‧老天份上，關閉它吧！ And the English version here.

Despite the huge dispute, I'm glad it happened. Let's see their ugly heads sooner than later. They wanna give us shit, we'll take it. We'll return them multiple times at the next election. Please, dish out more racial slurs. I welcome all of them. I don't even wanna feel mad. We shall transform anger into power.

Set the dates, monthly, weekly, bi-weekly, bi-monthly? Periodically air what you're afraid of - losing power by giving up your racial cards - we'll take it. We shall, like a good boy/girl, remember every slash and whip. You don't have to apologize - you always make an "if" apology, which amounts to even less than my flatulence, which at least plays the musical/smell chair.

I can't stress enough how damn much I love the Walkers. Can't wait for the premiere on Sept 28.

Watching seasons 1 & 2 over and over doesn't tire me at all. Can't thank the writers enough for giving me such entertaining and dramatic stories week after week. And the actors who pull the roles off so beautifully. I'd give each of them an Emmy if I could.

Shark protester suspended from ceiling by hooks

2008-09-05T17:02:00.001+10:00

I remember seeing an advertisement by 任贤齐 during Chinese New Year in 2004/5 (?) about not having shark fin. Since then I vowed not to have shark fin.

People look at me weird at a dining table but I think I've been doing fine in not eating shark fin. I haven't even been tempted at all.

This lady reinforces my determination.

There is so much other seafood that doesn't involve killing a whale, dolphin or shark. I love me and other seafood.

So dear shark friends, I would expect your kind not to eat me if I fall into the ocean.

Independence Day 2008

2008-08-30T15:33:00.001+10:00

It's been 51 years since the country first got independence. However, due to a certain group of people who are greedy, we have not progressed far, if at all, since 1957.

I don't expect the current administration to change because when one's old aged, demented and ill all over, things won't change. They have too much at stake. It's all or nothing for them.

I want them replaced. REPLACED! That's the best gift for everyone cum this 31 August.

Even though it's not possible in reality, I urge all Malaysian bloggers continue to flag the national flag upside down. Doesn't matter if it's unconventional (what is conventional!), it's an expression of our feelings. The country doesn't belong to our slaves, it belongs to the people.

oh Dr. M

2008-08-29T21:15:00.001+10:00

任内因打压新闻自由而恶名昭彰的前首相马哈迪今天撰文非议国阵政府阻截《今日马来西亚》网站的做法，并形容阿都拉巴达威政府此举“乃暴露了一定程度的压迫性嚣张气焰，不愧为极权国家”。

马哈迪今天在其部落格撰文说：“如今这种阻截部落格的做法，再次证明这个国家已成为一个专制国家，尽管还有举行选举。”

Mahathir has disappointed me again and again.

He was the one that jailed a reported in the 90s for saying something against him. Now he's criticising the current government for starting to take blogs seriously, to the extent of stopping blogs altogether. Blogs are now seen as a great weapon against the government, because all anti-government sentiments are spread over the internet on various blogs.

He is one to talk! Out of his old half-Malay wrinkly ass! He can very well be #1 on the "Eat My Own Words and Slap My Own Face" list. And who was such a big fan of the ISA? It'd not be Internal Security Act but I Suck Ass (to be consistent with the anal ambience the government has so meticulously set). He can either suck the front or the back - but I'm sure his won't work.

It also brings me to another point - the Malaysia government is nothing more than a crab parent who's trying to teach its children how to walk straight (of course by punishing people who have anal sex). On one hand they claim that Malaysia is democratic; on the other they are shutting people up (well, for years now they have controlled the main media streams like how tight Saiful sphincter was before he was plough by the 60yo Anwar).

I'm funny and fabulous to put sphincter and media together. Fierce!

People, on various political blogs, whose word I deeply admire, keep saying that why hasn't the government understood they lost the support. To me, this comment is totally USELESS. We don't have to question why they haven't understood and started to change. We don't have to hold expectation for Bodohwi to finally awake from his long sleep.

Because the WON'T happen! What needs to happen is for the people to awake and smell Najis! OK, maybe that's a little to far but what I'm saying is that government is the people's slave, quite literally. If you can't work for us, we'll fire you. As voters who put these people in the parliament, group up and tell your MPs that you no longer support them if they still belong to BN.

It's not about the question is change is better. Change is not necessarily better but we can hope that it'll be. The current government is rotten to the core. They are greedy, selfish, power loving and lazy! And who more seditious than these people who try to separate the people by badmouthing the other races when they talk to one race?

MCA and Gerakan have been cowards for eternity to UMNO. And UMNO has grown (I'm not gonna say arrogant because arrogance still makes them good) GREEDY and OLD. The only way to stop everyone's else suffering is to stop altogether the unhealthy relationship UMNO is sharing with other alliance parties.

But I don't! Brothers & Sisters and Desperate Housewives are just my most favourite TV series right now (now that the FRIENDS, WAG era is over).

搭公共交通才知人民不便‧首相兩度擠不上車

现在才来体会人民困境，一来太迟，人民心意已绝，二来显示政府人员头痛医头脚痛医脚。

改善公共交通是很重要，但是当务之急却是面对人民失信的危机。面对经济萧条、司法独立严重要胁、副首相身涉谋杀案、贪污、警军俩方均是政府走狗、发言自由受控、巫统元老挑拨离间，引发种族思维，损人利己，这一些才是大课题。

你搭一搭电动火车认为自己可以掩饰不足，以为我们会相信你在解决民难，简直是痴人说梦，做梦得太早！

要怪谁？阿都拉的确推卸不了责任，但是打狗要看主人，是谁当初认为阿都拉容易控制才选他当副手？其实阿都拉真的是马来人的缩写，好吃懒做，饭来张口，衣来伸手。你踢一下，他就马马虎虎动一下。当上首相后，他就发挥所长，藏在日月神教的总坛，修炼葵花宝典，别说丰功伟绩，连放一个臭屁都不够响、不够臭！

“陈莲花反映领袖意见分歧” 许子根：退出国阵与否非课题

2008-08-18T08:48:00.001+10:00

民政党妇女组主席陈莲花建议民政党退出国阵，该党代主席许子根表示“有点惊讶”，但认为陈莲花确实反映该党领袖之间出现意见分歧，但民政党退出国阵与否，目前并非课题。

许子根表示，身为新闻部长的陈莲花经常得到华社基层的回应，她知道基层有所不满，就反映基层的感受。

全文报道。

Thanks for Professor Trelawney's Divinition class, I already foresaw this coming ages ago.

猢狲不要等到树倒才散。早散早好，我们一把火把树烧掉，一把熊熊烈火将那些披着猢狲皮的老狐狸烧个精光。

Gordon Ramsay must be jealous!

Shit-ful swore on Quran to prove that he'd been indeed rooted by Anwar.

Mahathir also challenged Anwar to do the same to prove his innocence.

Haha.

They really thought that the Quran is like the diary from JK Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets", where Voldermort has split his soul into several parts and stored a part in a diary.

The diary will SPEAK! The Quran will speak!

Shit-ful was shitty enough to swear on the Quran. When even Mahathir said the same thing, you have to wonder the intention behind that supposedly intelligent mind.

Of course, Osama bin Laden will also swear on the Quran when he's finally caught.

Of course, all the 1st-degree murderers serving life-sentence in jails all over the world will now start to apply for Malaysian permanent residency and convert to Islam. They just have to swear on a book!

Should I call up Schapelle Corby's family and tell them such a great means for their daughter to prison-break? Hello, just an Air-Asia away from Bali to KL! The next hot-ticket item when you travel (and smuggle lovely powder across borders) is some religious book. It's more useful than a passport - any detective dog will have blocked nose when it sees a Quran/Bible (depending on which country you're going to).

Set as a precedence, David Hicks can swear on a Bible. Hell, with his connection to Osama bin Laden, he'll swear on both the Bible and Quran! Double wham-bam!

Back to Shit-ful, according to RPK, swearing on Quran isn't even a thing in Islam! Where's justice? So Anwar swears too, so both of them run free? Soon when Najis is finally linked to killing Altantuya and having anal sex, I'm sure he'll be another Quran-lifting champion, breaking all the Chinese records in Beijing 2008.

Have you ever wondered, as God always sent words down to his/her prophets, why doesn't s/he send an SMS to his/her believers when they are about to do something wrong? According to RPK, the Islam Prophet received revelation from God when he was figuring out how to solve accusation against his wife for committing adultery. If such revelation could be sent, why not a SMS to pre-criminal? Isn't it better to prevent than to cure? Optus would be very happy to be selling an iPhone to God. Good coverage in Australasia and Pacific regions.

Or you know, if God loves the believers, for example a woman, send her some wind to take her away when she's about to be raped! And not to tell her God works in mysterious ways when she's infected with HIV or pregnant. In Islam, Allah loves his believers so much that he asks a woman to produce 4 MALE eye-witnesses to charge the rapist (of course this represents an abuse of practice which was originally meant to protect the Prophet's wife). If this woman was gang-banged by 4 men, I assume she would have to find 16 men. If I were her, I would start charging for putting on a show and a good time! Might as well enjoy the ride and fill up the piggy bank on the way to orgasm. What's better than pay for 1, get 3 free! Safeway can't even beat that deal.

So Ramsay, remember to bring a Bible when you tape your next show. Just uphold it when you "fuck", then you won't be "tut"-ed.

in the name of the country and sports?

2008-08-16T18:25:00.001+10:00

During the opening ceremony of Beijing 2008, as the athletes marched into the arena, I wondered if sports super stars like the Williams sisters, Federer, Michael Phelps etc, do they actually stay together with their fellows at the athlete village?

Or do they actually stay in nearby 5-star hotels?

There's no golf at the Olympics either is there? I wonder if the Tiger would share its woods?

Flowers & fruits from Home

I don't know what kind of garden it has become... Can't say that my Dad isn't a realist... he says, and he does it!

I can't fucking believe this!!

宗教偏狭程度令人震惊十余民间组织谴责踢场

2008-08-13T08:46:00.001+10:00

Link here.

Excerpt: 他们认为，虽然当时没有诉诸暴力，但是群众粗野地辱骂“猪”、“叛徒”及“滚回中国”等言辞，揭橥了一小撮人的宗教偏狭程度令人震惊；这是有正常思维的马来西亚人绝不能接受的事。

Thanks to Shan from Malaysia Today for the wonderful pic.

You really gotta give it to the Malaysian Muslim who call themselves Muslim. Obviously they don't even understand their own religion. Islam prohibits (see even I know!) discrimination against minority. Yet for reasons of personal greed (political, financial), the Malay/Muslim (and some Chinese ones too) are all the piglets from the same mother pig - who practices deceit and sedition.

Let's air the dirty laundry, the Constitution doesn't say anything about not able to change one's belief system. Islam itself even asks not to discriminate against other religions and races. The fact is: if the Syariah court isn't an asshole and disallows conversion to other religions, most of the educated Muslim in Malaysia will try to restore their foreskin and ask Christian Siriano from Project Runway 4 to sew and cut their head scarves into a hot little miniskirt.

That's the plan - the plan for the top few to continue their grasp on power. More Muslim = longer term; more maternity leave in the government sector = more time to get back in the bedroom after giving birth; and the end result = more vote!

Actually from a pro-evolution me have to agree that this is brilliant - what better way to breed your way to the extinction of other species?

When it comes to Syariah court, of course one of the ex prime ministers, whose own judge-brainwashing camps must have produced more than several pro-government justice chiefs, has ensured that no conversion is allowed. And he sheds a few tears every time he cries for the Malay (he's only half breed).

Love the following comment from jayenjr from the post Will we ever grow out of it?

As a community, we will not and cannot be dislodged from power. Nothing, and no one, is going to take away all that we have achieved after 50 years of
Merdeka.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Really? So how come Najib, Hishammuddin & other UMNO ministers send their kids to UK, US, Aussie land etc to further their studies? I bet you, if a US aircraft carrier were to "pass by" the Straits of M'cca, these UMNO baggers will be the first to run....

Really Raslan, what DID you all achieve in 50 years? A former PM (TDM) who is considered a pariah by many in the international scene? An astronaut sent to the moon 2 make teh tarik? A pathetic football team that loses to newcomers like Vietnam? The highest income gap between the rich & the poor in SE Asia? A national motor car which quality is good only for 3rd world countries? A Judicial system that is the most laughed at in the region?

Brain-dead serials like Gerak Khas that make watching re-reruns of The Bold & The Beautiful a welcome relief? Fellas who run around in Mercs, BMWs & 4-wheels bought with hutang money? Ministers like the two Muhammad fella who can't speak English? University Graduates that can't read & write in English? A nation that holds the chair of the OIC, but where the gov'n of the day also maliciously persecutes its political opponents? Racists politicians that don't think twice bout offering money or holding the keris - and at who? An enemy nation? No - at its own people!!

I can't imagine George Bush holding a musket at the blacks & remind them that they are Pendatangs!! What? You're jabbering cos of those twin towers? Don't - there's no soul in it.

What did you achieve if not for the contributions of all the other races that came together to give birth to this nation? 500 - 1000 years ago, the Chinese & Indian kings/travellers were already on the soils of this nations, long before your great grandfathers made their entry. Didn't Indians & Chinese also work on the Death Railway? It's their blood man. The Phoon Fook Lokes, the Punch Gunalans, the Wong Peng Soons, the M.Jegathesans help build this country together with the Mokhtar Daharis, the Sidek bros & the Rabuan Pits.

So, I'll bloody well say, that we too have equal rights, not secondary, not pendatang rights, but FULL RIGHTS! And that includes the right to air our concern & frustrations in a civil manner.

If according to Hishamuddin, his keris waving antics was to allow for the "release of pent up emotions in a controlled environment", then we too have absolute right to do so.

"Let’s face it, Malays dominate the country’s public life. By dint of our sheer numbers alone – over 55% of the population – our influence is now undoubted and growing."

Yo soh chai, if only the Chinese & Indians, who mostly work in the private sector, too had 5 years of paid maternity -
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/9/27/nation/19004608&sec=nation.
then we too, could do what Kekanda & Adinda do with so much time in their hands, believe you me, the % would be more even now.

I agree so much with jayenjr - Hishamuddin (and Khairy) who liked to wave his Malay sword so much at others, wasn't charged with the Sedition Act. He only had to say, IF I offended anyone, I apologize. "IF"? "IF"?

Is there really anyway a peaceful talk can be held with the Muslim, to talk about Muslim stuff? If they don't try to stab you with a Malay sword, they bomb you. Maybe it doesn't matter the religion, the so-called believers abuse the religion. See that's why I can't believe in any religion, if God existed, s/he/it would have already sent down a lightning to strike the bastard who did the religion wrong. Or you know, war between the gods should have started by now. Gods are cowards! They let others fight their war. And who stupidly believe them?

Maybe I should stop following all this every morning, I become a grumpy person every day.

Poor taste!

2008-08-10T00:16:00.001+10:00

Malaysia really had no taste or was just being plain lazy (as usual). The Olympics team had the WORST outfit ever. Yellow traditional Malay costume. Yellow. Yellow! If not yellow, you would see shit green.

Malays are dark skinned. Yellow + dark skin = shit.

Every sports meet they have to wear traditional wear. Fucking ugly yellow or chicken-shit yellow. Just like the government has no other means to bring down their opponent, they become recyclist.

Sports coat, polo shirts, khaki pants, skirts.. there are so many choices... yet they came up with the remarkably ugly one. Mind you, it wouldn't hurt to display a little of the "oh, oh, there's multiculturalism in this country; we have Malay, Chinese and Indian races living harmoniously together". But I HAVE NEVER seen any other costume that would represent MALAYSIAN except some yellowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

You're going to compete in sports, not fucking going to a mosque!

my fucking problem is...Malay Titles

2008-08-06T22:09:00.001+10:00

An unfortunate inherent problem with the Malaysian society has to be traced back to the Malay Titles. I believe it IS the yeast of all corruption.

Everyone has to look at others' titles in the society, be it Dato (most common), Tan Seri, Tun (my ass), Yang Mulia... Having a title gives someone an extra layer of glory, unspoken power and a window of opportunity to corruption.

I don't know why the fuck the Attorney General or Inspector General of Policy has to be called Tan Seri. What are they? What have they done for the society? They should be servants to the people. Instead, we have to call them Tan Seri, as if they are some sort of higher beings? These honorifics create a shield that protect the scumbags from much-needed scrutiny; we have allowed them too much one-eye-shut.

Being called these titles creates a sense of being in the higher power and it makes others scared of these people. If a society worships something as empty as titles, the people are digging a graveyard for themselves.

We don't see Abraham Lincoln being called some fancy salutation, despite him being one of the greatest American presidents. As bad as John Howard might have been, his contributions would be tainted if the Australian tried to address him with some corny honorifics.

But in Malaysia - you see all of these stupid names... In a small kampung or district, some assholes who just sit on their big asses in the government office and do nothing are being addressed as Dato xxx or Datin xxx. What the fuck?

I'm never gonna call Anwar Datuk Seri; Badawi will always stay Bodohwi and the best is Najib being Najis! Giving them names other than what they should be called is giving these people illusion, eluding them from doing their job - that is to serve the people, not the other way round. They want our support - they should wipe our asses, not us giving them lip service!

You Malaysian have got to get it right!

To add on the grocery list

2008-08-06T19:14:00.001+10:00

RPK says that the Chemistry Department of Malaysia is waiting for the DNA Act to be passed so that Anwar's speSEMEN can be harvested and planted on Saiful's underwear (I hope it's branded like Emporium Armani or CK, and not some RM10 for 3). Report here.

So someone should tell Anwar's wife, Azizah, to add "chastity belt" on the weekly grocery list. And then blend the key using the blender that can blend an iPhone. Better yet, Anwar is to be 阉割 and become the 21st century 太监！！

Moon + Cake

2008-08-05T20:23:00.001+10:00

I just have to be like, OMFG..... I'm missing yet another year of mooncakes... Especially mooncakes from Starbucks Malaysia. Tiramisu, chocolate, greentea, hazel nut.... they could cheer me from the gloomiest day, which is today...

I also miss 上海月饼。

Sigh...................................................

Maybe I should leave...
