smart budget?

*Households which incur monthly electricity bills of RM20 or less, will not have to pay for electricity, for the period from 1 October 2008 to end of 2009.

Budget 2009 Malaysia 29/08/2008


It might sound nice, an energy conserving plan.

But, it is ridiculous.

I spend more than rm20 by just running a refrigerator. We don't switch off our fridge, do we?
So, I guess he is encouraging us to use candles.

Bravo!

"This is the people's victory," Anwar said in a victory speech.

"Permatang Pauh has given a clear signal to the leadership of this country. We demand change. We want freedom. We don't want to live with corruption and oppression.

"We want an independent judiciary, we want the economy to benefit the vast majority not the corrupt few," he added.

Well Said!

I hope he is not another NATO (No Action Talk Only).

DSAI

It's definitely a DSAI day today.

Majority 15671,

he brings BN down. 916 Reformasi, is it possible?

HIghly efficient ACA - Bravo??

PUTRAJAYA: The five people including two Perak state executive councillors detained by the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) recently for alleged graft will be charged on Monday.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, responding to the arrests, said this was proof of the agency's increased efficiency due to improvements to its enforcement capacity.

NST 23/08/2008

Those two Perak exco are from Pakatan Rakyat(PR).

Just 5 months after PR takeover Perak, they are charged with corruption. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty. I'm not backing PR blindly, they should be persecuted once proven guilty.

However, Is it true that ACA is highly efficient now, as claimed by Badawi?

There are so many controversial and high-profile cases involving BN's politicians in here, why is it so remarkably efficient against PR only?

It is all about selective prosecution and double-standard. ACA, judiciary and police, all the so-called independent bodies are being maneuvered by the our ruling party.

As a Sarawakian, How I wish the ACA can get rid of the infamous 'white fur/white shark' in Sarawak!

Made in Malaysia, Sodo-mee. enak sekali~

"Saya Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan dengan nama Allah saya bersumpah saya telah diliwat oleh Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim pada 26 Jun 2008 dan pada hari tersebut Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim telah memasukkan zakarnya ke dalam dubur saya.

"Jika saya berdusta dengan perkara ini, saya berdusta dengan Allah SWT dan akan dilaknat oleh Allah SWT sehingga hari kiamat."

He swore on Quran.

I don't see any value in doing this. Swearing is definitely not a way to resolve legal matters, it is childish! Surprise to see that former PM agree in doing this. If it really works, all the criminals should convert to muslim and swear on Quran to free themselves.

Another thing,

Is it possible that a 61 years old elderly man manage to pull down the pants of a 23 years old tall and strong young man, aim his 'zakar' and penetrate into that tiny anus by force?

Logically, It is IMPOSSIBLE, unless the young man is willing to commit himself: tilt his buttock, stay still, and get ready to be inserted. So, since 'suka sama suka', why is he accusing that elderly man now?

Heartbreaking moment...........................................

What happen to our World no.2 badminton player, Mr. LEE?

Beaten terribly by the DAN, 12-21, 8-21.

My heart is weeping.

God bless.

Thanks for the night, guys....

Racist Teacher

The teacher at SMK Panglima Garang in Klang was alleged to have used racial slurs and verbally abused several students here last month.

In the incident last month, the teacher allegedly entered a Form Five class and called the students using a derogatory word. She also accused them of being gangsters and thieves.

New Straits Times 05/08/2008

Click for the news

I came across this news in NST. The news is actually written in a very 'well-mannered' way. They didn't elaborate more about the actual act of that teachers. So, out of curiosity, I started to google about it. I was thinking, most probably she only used some words or phrases like 'stupid', 'anjing(dog)' and 'semua kaum awak malas (lazy race) '.

But, to my surprise, it was far more extreme than that. I couldn't believe that it came from the mouth of a TEACHER.

She referred to her students of a particular race as:

"keling pariah"
"negro"
"black monkey"
"came from dogs"
"always menstruate"
"did not have testicles"
"children of prostitutes"

She even wrote some of those phrases on the blackboard, purposely beat them and punished them.

This problematic teacher had committed a disgraceful offence and she was merely being transfered to another school as her punishment. It's totally unfair and unacceptable.

It leaves me to think that one can make any racist remarks and remain unharmed as long as she belongs to the dominant race, the race that rules this country.

This is Malaysia, from my point of view.

Olympic 2008

I was excited about Olympic opening ceremony yesterday. I was the third to reach the TV room, there were already two excited looking seniors waiting for the show to begin. I got myself a front-seat.

The show began.

It was nice. It was good. It was superb! I was particularly amazed by the synchronization of the performers and of course, the fireworks..speechlessly superb.

Then, I waited patiently to see and show my support to my beloved Malaysian contingent. I was excited when I finally saw the Malaysian flag. Proud of that!

But, I was surprised when I saw their costumes: Malay costume and songkok. The contingent consists of 33 athletes in which the majorities are non-malay, and of course, non-muslim as well. Besides, Malay cannot solely represent the image of Malaysia, it's multi-racial. I don't understand the need to wear songkok among non-muslims, it's an insult. If there is a real need to glorify Malay ethnic, they can be asked to wear tanjak/tengkolok (the one you see in malaysian ringgit), why songkok? Thankfully, the female athletes were not required to wear headscarf(tudung).
As a multi-racial country, the most suitable outfit is definitely suit and trousers. Batik is another good choice. For the muslims, they can add-on by wearing songkok.

Anyway, I still fully support Malaysian athletes. Hope they manage to grab a few gold medals and make us proud. Heard that each gold medalist is gonna be rewarded with Rm1 million, is it true?

Case Study

This Case is Fictional. Any similarity with actual facts or cases is purely coincidental. It is merely for educational purpose.

Case:

Mr. Mohd. Being Sudumi, a 22 years old Malay gentleman was presented with tenesmus and pain on passing motion for 1 week duration. He claimed that he was allegedly assaulted by introducing a plastic item into his anus and he wanted to lodge a police report. On physical examination, he was alert and conscious. There was no palor, no cyanosis and he was afebrile. On Per rectal examination, there was no active bleeding, no ulcer or pus, no tear and no other injury.
