Aiming For A Better Future

A few days ago (19 Feb 2009), I wrote about why we should concentrate on the economy in the post ‘Uncertainty Over Economic Future‘. In that article, I call for the stopping of all squabbling between the politicians and ask them to purely concentrate on building the economy as a way for us to move [...]

We can’t even have some peace for a few days and there’s another piece of news that make us start thinking, what has Malaysian politics degenerated into.
While offsite for our 3 days Annual Gerakan Youth Training Camp (20-22 Feb), we got news on Friday (20 Feb 2009) that the Chairman of DAP, Karpal Singh [...]

Uncertainty Over Economic Future

Down! Down! Down! in the next 4 years
The situation in Perak is extremely fragile now, both politically and economically. Lets depart for the moment from debating about the right or wrong of the takeover of the State Govt, but we have to put some attention on how is Perak going to fend for itself economically, [...]

Lower Than The Lowest

How ‘low’ can politics be? One cannot imagine, it can be so ‘low’ that even the South Pole looks high from the equator!
Without saying, my greatest symphathy to the Assemblywoman from Bukit Lanjan. And no thanks to the biggest idiot, whomever you are! The whole world of women-folks will be out having your head on [...]

Doctor Doctor Please Come Back!

 Who-ever/Where-ever you are, please come back!
Have you ever wondered how much money is being poured down the drain every year. As many as 100 Malaysians are being given opportunities both in United Kingdom and Ireland every year at a cost of between RM60 million and RM100 million to become doctors. And when they finish at the end [...]

More Unemployment To Come

 Most Demoralising Place to be
It’s sad to see that, as highlighted by today’s newspapers, more than 20,000 people are out of a job in Hefei City, Anhui Province in China, in the last few months. As we cushion for a global recession in the next few months, I wonder how many more people will be affected [...]

The Race Is On … Again!

 Dua Bukit – Two Hills
Looks like the race is on again for the two ‘hills’ this time – the by-election of ‘Bukit’ Gantang and ‘Bukit’ Selambau.
There’s no end to who wants to be the candidates for the two April by-elections. Even before the corpse of Roslan Shaharum (PAS) can even turn cold, people are scrambling [...]

Some Further Advice From … the Professor

 The Prof
For those whom have followed the development of the Perak State Government, many would have either casually or inadvertently came across Professor Shad Saleem Faruqi of University Teknologi Malaysia, a Constitutional Law expert whom have spoke out on various issues whenever the issue of the Constitution is brought up.
His stand is that of – [...]

Rise & Fall

 The Pahlavi Royalty
There used to be a myth that some things are untouchable and royalty is one of them.
But the recent happenings in Perak had me flipping back to an old book on “The Rise and Fall of the Shah” (by Amin Saikal) for reasons that even the Monarch cannot withstand the wrath of the people.
