The Good..The Ugly and The Stupid

Second post of the day but do check out my earlier post and check out Raja Petra's Malaysia Today and his recent blog (The link is at the bottom of the earlier post). It's Just mind blowing!

This is a summary of the highlights of yesterday's Star

THE GOOD

MPSJ ( Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya) has implemented a dog adoption programme before putting the dogs to sleep. I salute MPSJ for taking such an effort and giving a chance for the innocent dogs to possibly have another chance at life. The Reason why the action of MPSJ should be commended as it involves higher cost and taking an effort to save the life of others including of animals is something that we all can learn from. For more information you guys can check out.

Acts of compassion like this deserves to be termed as The Good.

THE UGLY

A 60 year old man was shot not once but TWICE in the leg by dog shooter in Taiping...Poor man was riding back home with his wife when he was accidentally shot in the leg. I have seen dog shooters in action and as i Remember they warn people to stay away. I can't deny that in some cases dog shooters are needed especially in cases where the dogs have rabies or pose a threat to young children but this was a very unfortunate incident thus a really really ugly incident.This act deserves to be termed as The Ugly

THE STUPID

My favourite is the Stupid...MAS has recently scrapped its ticket commission for its agents thus the ticketing agents shall now be free to charge a service free...It means MONEY MONEY MONEY!!! Why? Because they are now allowed to charge around 5% of the ticket price...and they can charge more for extra services. As we all good Malaysians know if we don't control or regulate prices it will be CHARGE KAU KAU!! A lot of agents will take an opportunity to charge a higher fee which i believe would be higher than the commission previously given by MAS. As i know MAS did not provide a fixed commission for every ticket sold but based on a performance basis throughout a certain period. Thus you can see the difference of the previous and current commission scheme

Now i shall present the meaning of the word STUPIDITY!! A representative from the travel industry was speaking at some conference and he spoke to the press that with this increase there will be better SERVICE...The headline of the report was BETTER SERVICE WITH TICKET FEE!! So we will be charged more and we are suppose to SMILE because will be obtain better service...The part that really made me laugh if you ask for delivery of tickets don't worry, It will be done but you will pay more for the tickets!! What service do they mean? Hai...Really Stupid lah..Are we that stupid to believe such excuses...

No other words cross my mind except The Stupid

RAJA PETRA HAS BALLS!!

''Flexible' Relationships

I have and always been a staunch believer in the whole concept of LOVE...commitment to relationship and finding happiness with your loved one........It is one of my greatest aspiration and dream...but does it stand a chance to become reality..Not till today..There has just been too many heartbreaks and disappointment...I have lost the ability to let myself go all out in a relationship..I feel shocked saying this but for the next few years until i have achieved stability in my life It shall be only 'me and myself'.....hehe...Apart from that I believe any relationship at this age is more likely than not destined for failure...That's another topic for another day.

Flexible Relationship'...Is it right or correct or morally wrong? For those that don't know what 'Flexible Relationship' means? It is being with someone...enjoying 'every' benefit of a relationship without any any commitment what so ever...A mutual agreement to enjoy being with someone but without any prospect of getting hurt...Sounds attractive right..And the best part you can have multiple relationship but the only limitation will be your own pocket ($$$) . These days as I have noticed both guys and gals have preferred to adopt this type of relationship due to:

A) Personal Pleasure

B) Fear of being Heart Broken

C) Adopting the I Don't give a Fuck and I want to Enjoy KAU KAU Attitude

Love is meant to be a union of two hearts...Union of two Souls....Where two people develop deep Affection and Sincerity towards each other. A love that is beyond anyone's understanding..It is not suppose to make any sense because it is love. It makes every moment of your existence the most special moment...To be able to hold that person in your arms makes life worth living. All the pain and hardship gone through can be cured by a simple 'I love you'. All tears and every second of pain in the world is drifts away and happiness fill your heart with just your loved one presence.

In conclusion we can run away from facing the fear...preferring to hide from the pain...Running away is never the answer but may just provide a temporary relief...but by running away you lose the chance to have eternal happiness...It differs from person to person and your present situation of life but sometimes having 'Flexible Relationship' can be very tempting and even the choice to make at that time but never let go of the ultimate goal of finding true love!

Man Or Animals - Sharlinie!!

The theory that men and animals are not so distinct has been proven in my mind after the recent increase in sexual assault cases. First from last year statistics there were more than 3000 cases of rape reported. That's an average of more nearly 10 cases a day.. Whats wrong with our society? is it full of ruthless and barbaric sexual predators??? Have all these people lost every sense of respect of women? Are they so overwhelmed by their sick and twisted fantasies that they have lost every sense of humanity? Are they animals? How can you allow yourself to commit such an act where you are killing a person alive and causing her to face mental trauma that will change torment her forever! What is running in the mind of this animals!

To make things worse, The killing of Nurin is so shocking that I could not believe it when I read it..The manner he tortured her is so fundamentally twisted that it can only be the mind of a sick sick sick sick devil. No sound and sane human being could have lost all sense of rationality to commit such a crime! Everyone has their own inner devil...We can never run away from the devils in our heart and mind but our sense of humanity take precedence over anything else. We were never created perfect, WE ARE BORN FLAWED BUT SHOULD STRIVE TO PERFECT OURSELVES!!!! What the Fuck is wrong with these people!

The case of Sharlinie..For those that don't know..A young gal was kidnapped a few days ago..and still missing..It is feared the same Animal that took Nurin is responsible for this barbaric act..I hope and pray god will protect and return her safely back to her family..Let our prayers be with her...When that animal is finally caught he should be tortured and tortured and tortured...death
is no price for him to pay for what he did...

SMK HILLCREST

SMK Hillcrest is a school in the Gombak area and last sunday from being a relatively unknown school it has now shot to fame for the wrong reasons..What do i mean by the wrong reasons? it is one of the school that practices segregation of male and female students. Kesian the boys and gals in the school!! hehe.....So with the report from the STAR.. now some changes will occur as exemplified in the first case of segregation in schools a few weeks back..But as in the earlier case the principal the culprit behind all this 'kuno' policies will escape without any action taken against them. That's just unacceptable because this principals are acting like Little Dictators in their respective schools and without the exposure of the media nothing would have stopped them from implementing all their 'fantasies'. But being a very forgiving country....The principals shall live ot rule another day..

But unknown to everyone there SMK Hillcrest has another dirty secret..I met a parent of one of the students thus I would say it is a reliable source and to my utmost Surprise, This school planned to practice the QUOTA system...YES! For post PMR students when they assign classes when they enter Form 4 subject to a quota..Now, Lets think back what is the quota system..It is to ensure equal opportunity among the races when entering the Uni's but not for Schools! As it is, many well deserving students are deprived a chance to further their studies in courses of their choice at Universities due to the quota system and now in SMK HILLCREST...they are depriving students from a chance in being in better classes with a more conducive class due to their race. Is that not discrimination!! I accept with must discontent the quota system in Uni's because it has been a part of our history and abolishing it will open Pandora's Box but this rogue principals should be fired and expelled from the teaching profession for acting on based on their fancy. But thankfully from the information I received their plans to implement the qouta system was not implemented upon the first few days of school.

Every man and Woman should be judged on their own ability..Their own desire for success..Their own determination..Their own Character and Their own Success and Capability and Nothing Else..We are a developing Nation and not a Nation striving to return back to the Feudal Ages. Something must be done!

COOKING OIL..WHERE ARE YOU?

What a news..we are facing a shortage of cooking oil..hmm...First I thought that the source of cooking oil is from some substance not common to us or a product of some chemical..hehe..Im not a kitchen kind of guy...dumb dumb..hehe..But surprisingly as i found out the main product is PALM OIL...wait wait...As i drive around Malaysia....My home state of Perak..eh! bloody a lot of palm oil plantation..I went Pahang before its full of palm oil..Eh!...How come we face a shortage..Is it because of the previous flooding? maybe but surprisingly few days later or was it within 48 hours problem solved...Suddenly the government flooded the market with palm oil..I don't know whether its true or not, as i mentioned I'm not a kitchen kind of guy...The government came to the rescue or did they? 'Paham paham lah'...In my opinion somebody or some group must have been holding on to the supply and after some malaysian 'perbincangan' they released it back to the market..One other reason i would attribute to this shortage is panic buying..that's why i love Malaysia..We get so 'Semangat' over any rumour and make it a reality..its just amazing...We are always over prepared...I just love it that's the true spirit of 'Malaysia Boleh'..

On the lighter side farmers are complaining that price of vegatables are dropping...funny rite..It was in the Star...The headline should have been..FINALY SOMETHING IS REDUCING NOT INCREASING...that was the wacky week of our local products...hope you have a nice weekend and MALAYSIA BOLEH!

Chua Soi Lek - Goodbye

The Saga of our Health Minister brought some spark to our new year...It was sort of unexpected the way and speed it turned out. None would have expected him to have been so courageous in dealing with the situation. Lets face it, its not easy facing the public..He didnt face the public on a literal manner but through the media (However it was like a media circus). The media had a double Christmas this year with them chasing the this story getting reaction and finding out who filmed the video. The once minister resigned within 48 hours from all his post. The thought that crossed my mind is whether his actions was of such a nature that he has to resign? He commited adultery and was recorded without his knowledge. He did not intentionally and knowingly record his 'moments'. They have been so many minister involved in corruption but you dont see them having a press conference and admitting to their actions. The Port Klang asseblymen could even conduct an open house inviting the press to view his mansion. That's just Crazy. So is adultery a greater sin than corruption? Corruption is cheating the public which means our money and denying other genuine and rightful parties from making money by limiting opportunities to themselves but where as for adultery he should be answerable only to this wife and family.

Dont get me wrong that its all right to cheat on your loved ones, I am strongly against it and I believe if you truly love how can you cheat and hurt them...but this is an issue between him and his family. Now the argument that he should display examplary moral behaviour is a load of crap. Pure bullshit, do we seriously believe that our politican can dsplay even acceptable moral behaviour. Why would i say that? Can we ourselves dare declare that we are of good moral behaviour, I have met people that I regard as angels but put them in a situation where you are involved in politics and business. Something must be sacrified or at least sometimes some compromise must be made. I perefer those that are brave enough to admit their mistakes and i admire that he did resign from his post taking it as someone who know the true meaning of responsiblity. For those that live in the public eye its better to make it open than hiding the dirty secrets..but dont go ala britney but ala badawi..I respect him for taking a wife while in office. He has been subjected to much ridicule but I think its better than keeping 'personal friends' . So to our Mr. Chua goodbye but thank you for teachin us and making the the term 'personal friend' popular.
