I’ll confess that I didn’t know anything about this until last night (fireworks, dad and aunt) and today (KTemoc), but it’s a pretty darn interesting story (the corny rainbow is over a sugar cane field, apparently :)
Also just wanted to let the world know that this Hokkien lang was still alive [...]
:D HNY all :) As usual, I borrow politikuses brilliant graphics – aren’t newwie and indy cute?? :) Pig year could be pretty different from dog year for me. I confess, I’m a little trepiditious and have some concerns about dealing with some pressures. But I’m gonna try to have faith! :) Re: specifics, there [...] Utusan and The Star: Datuk Abu Hassan Din Al-Hafiz said chastity belts would protect victims and also help reduce sex crime rate. “My intention is not to offend women but to safeguard them from sex maniacs. Probably, this is the best way,” he said. “Besides, husbands could also feel more secure, if you know what [...] My dad’s kinda in the news yesterday! But not for the best of reasons. He and his friends were terrorised by the APMM (Maritime Enforcement Agency – the people recently made responsible for security beyond 12 nautical miles of Malaysian shores) on the high seas. Just back from mamak with politikus, Tian and Eli – good times, with plenty of informative sharings :) We talked of state vs. parliamentary constituencies, inter/intra-opposition politics, outreach strategies, voter behaviour and Jedi council meeting technologies (no seriously, remember those hologram thingies? :)
Actually, some serious balls may have begun rolling this evening, for [...] DS Radzi Sheikh Ahmad on MyKad contest withdrawal: Asked whether the government was not afraid to be labelled a liar for calling off the lucky draws, Radzi said: “We do not lie. We just ask the public to forget about it.“ o_O ?!?! He also goes on in the most typically shameful fashion imaginable to place all the [...] Am here with politikus, who is sadly nursing a notty tummy :( We all wish her a speedy wecovery! Delightful even in sickness, I shall borrow from her genius:
Do you know just how deep the abuses of our electoral system go? I didn’t. Got a better idea after attending a roundtable organised by BERSIH (but driven mostly by Pas, it looks like) about elections and democracy. BERSIH consists of NGOs and political parties and was formed to highlight abuses as well campaign for better [...] Re: Tun Mahathir – see the Police Watch statement questioning his credibility to lead a War Crimes Commission. They quoted an IHT article which young fellas like me found new and disturbing. * The Star carries MIC Youth chief SA Vigneswaran’s plea to the police to stop using the Emergency Ordinance to send Indian’s to Simpang Renggam. [...] Friends: A book I helped put together about the Mahathir-Abdullah conflict has recently been launched!! :D
It appears timely, as Tun appears to have gone back on the warpath a bit. We’ll follow the developments closely. The book is a compilation of articles that try to cut through the sandiwara (playacting) of the vicious war [...] Just because someone on TV doesn’t look like too many other Malaysians, doesn’t make him/her any less Malaysian no? What’s a Malaysian look anyway? Not to play the marginalised non-bumi card, but if today Pan-Asians aren’t ‘Malaysian enough,’ then tomorrow Chindians won’t be Malaysian enough? Then the day after, Indians, Chinese, East Malaysian Bumi’s and so [...] |
Help resist the clampdown on the truth! |
