Someone called asking for directions to a wake, and I hadn’t any idea what he was talking about. Eli called later with the bad news. It was on the blogosphere earlier, but I’d been nose deep in work and had totally missed it :( I think John introduced me to Rajan, who like Eli, John, [...]
:) This time of the year is very much family time, so it’ll probably be a break here for quite a while – 1000 apologies! ps- been researching and thinking of the bak kut teh issue, quite interesting! I confess I find it delicious (somewhat unhealthy probably, but delicious). It is something of a testament to current affairs that in all seriousness, I really don’t know whether it’d make sense to put the words “No offence” at the beginning of the previous sentence. In any case, allow me for now to seek the perspectives of [...] I really wish I could find that clip on Youtube. You ever watch the (eminently enjoyable) Hunt for Red October? Remember one of the final scenes? Where the Secretary of Defense or something is settling matters with the Soviet ambassador? Even though it doesn’t catch the fun acting, I’m eminently grateful to Drew, who transcribed: Ambassador: There is another [...] I always get so incredibly irritated when cops arrest people for stupid reasons. The two PKR Youth leaders detained by police here yesterday for circulating leaflets alleged to be seditious have been placed on remand for three days beginning today. They were arrested after Friday prayers at a mosque here while circulating leaflets calling on the Kuala [...] Firstly, Salam Maal Hijrah! :) Not to politicise religion or whatever, but I thought it a bit presumptuous when Najib said: The Hijrah spirit practised in Islam is in line with the 1Malaysia concept which is a continuous effort at strengthening unity among the people.

After much work, we finally have our latest book out – this blog post will constitute its ‘soft launch’ :) The book, published by Kinibooks, is entitled “Where is Justice? Death and Brutality in Custody” and features 4 major case studies [...] How can we call ourselves in any way civilised? MK: Dr Anis Salwa Kamarudin of the Health Ministry’s public health division said the cases are linked to certain habits of detainees, such as eating grass and walking around barefooted. “Some of these detainees like to eat grass which grows in the camp (compound),” she said in a [...] Haiyo. Small thing like this still want to arrest. A short prayer ceremony to mark the Internal Security Act (ISA) detention of five Hindraf leaders two years ago was marred by the arrest of one of the movement’s key leaders S Jayathas.His alleged crime – wearing an anti-ISA button badge.Shortly after leaving a Hindu temple in [...] I usually don’t bother much with dottering old men, but: Lim Keng Yaik - Gerakan advisor Dr Lim Keng Yaik has called on all party members to speak out against Malay supremacy, even if it lands them in jail.Describing it as a ‘foul word’ in politics, the former cabinet minister said ‘Ketuanan Melayu’ or Malay supremacy [...] On a less serious note, is it just me or does the Star always have these ridiculous pictures of Najib everytime he makes a state visit? (for better resolution, check out the hard copy front page today) I hope this humble blog post does not discourage them from continuing the trend! :D
