Today I want to talk about Perak ( silver)
Some 2-3 months ago, this northern state of Malaysia staged a dramatic political tussle between the ruling people alliance ( PR) and opposition national front ( BN ).
By allowing 3 of the Ex-PR's assemblyman to show their support for BN, the sultan of perak allow BN to take over the state government and refused request for dissolution of the state assembly as well. The sultan then appoint a new chief minister in replacing the incumbent.
This is said to have created a chains constitutional crisis that is expected to settle soon.
My personal feeling is that:-
i) What is happening here is part of the route toward the demise of BN government in the coming GE 13
ii) the judiciary system is extra ordinary flawed in Malaysia where courts and judges is being used as a tools for achieving all the political agenda of BN.
iii) The public servant including the police also whom is supposed not to align to any party was used to achieve their objectives.
iv) The people of silver state will eventually planted with hatred feeling that will- eventually turn into "people power" and over throw the unwanted state government.
v) the respect to the sultan by its people will be faded being acted against the will of perakian or Malaysian.
To be continue....

Sick
The whole last weekend spoiled and I end up have to take MC for the Monday as well.
During this period, I only know how important to keep one healthy in order to have a happy life.
If you are sick, you have one million also useless because the money won't make you recover instantly, moreover money cannot make the incurable sickness cured.
Please preserve a healthy lifestyle and remember a Chinese proverb " sickness is always caused by your eating habit"
Eat less and exercises more is the key to a healthy lifestyle. But how many people will follow when they were served with delicious food in front of them...Especially in our countries where we have all the main local delicacies from 3 different ethnics i.e. Malay, India and Chinese.

Conversion
Today's The Sun Headline is long waiting one, its about Conversion of religion in Malaysia. Its titled, " End to child conversion" means one child faith is to be remained at the time of parent's marriage.
I am thinking why Malaysia government took such as long time to settle such a simple issue.
In this issue, we must go back to the basic i.e. so long as anyone do not have any faith on his current religion, it is free for him/her to convert. But this do not apply to Muslim as no conversion are allowed for Muslim in Malaysia.
The government is moving in the right direction in clearing the air but what I am worry is that all the related parties do not follow the instruction especially those religion workers.

"Che Det" - The yes and no man
I believe when you see the title you would have know what I want to say about this old man
He is the premier of Malaysia from 1981-2003. He is so energetic yet so powerful when he successfully toppled his handpicked successor after stepping down in 2003.
I want to pass my personal comments on him today.
- I salute him for the fast action take in stopping the economic turmoil that hit Malaysia and successfully brought us out from the 1997 Asia financial crisis.
- During his tenor as PM, he managed to planned & implemented many mega infrastructure projects such as the Penang Bridge, KLIA airport, The KLCC, The Putrajaya and as well as the iconic Privatise Highway.
- He managed to wash hand in the Highway concession issue by simply citing his incompetence ministers/staffs who signed all the lopsided agreements that eventually makes the people "highway slave"
- During his tenor as premier also, he started the national car projects that make all the Malaysian suffers. Malaysian forced to pay extra price to buy an incompetence, quality compromised car. I am once the victim as well.
- It is during his time, the corruption runs high. However he was shield under regional and world economy booming period. Unlike his immediate successor whom are not so lucky, the moment he took over the helm from him, the treasury are basically empty, he has to bear his blunder that accumulated for 22 years.
- He is very forgetful guy as well, he tend to forgot the bad things he did and very good in remembering what he had done good. Sometimes even things happened during his childhood, he also can recalled clearly. The most iconic event is when he testify in the "Lingam Tape" that look like him sounds like him and is not him.
- He tend to flip-flop as well. When he accused Tun Abdullah flip-flopping, he did the same thing. The most memorable one is that he said he wouldn't immulate Lee Kuan Yew who retired as PM as singapore and continues to served as a senior minister. However, he is worst. He continues to sabotage his own party until the the collapse of ruling party 2/3 majority in the parliament. Najib should thank him and thats why his son was appointed deputy minister in return even though the son lost in the youth chief race.

Hamster and my wife
I want to take a moment to write about this today.
My brother gave me a pair of hamster couple of months ago. My wife name the whity and Blacky.
My wife and I took about a month or so to familiarise with this animal and its funny to play with it as they basically eat-play-sleep-eat-play-sleep.... every day.
I bought them a new cage and some accessories to make them comfortable.
One fine day, when I finished my routine cleaning jobs for the cage, I decided to let them have a "sun bath" - so as to sterilised the cage as well or to kill the germs as they have been "hiding" inside the house all along.
Unfortunately, I left them under the hot sun for too long while I am enjoying a movie in that hot sunday afternoon and the hamster was eventually "tortured" by me and died.
We tried to revived and save the hamsters but failed. My wife look like going to cry but she tried not to show her dissapointment about what is happening.
It was a sad weekend though the hamsters only have been with us for a very short period and we decided to buried them at our backyard.
I felt so sorry for that as she love and cared about them so much.
I want to say " I am sorry for that, My dear "

The New Proton Exora MPV
Today I have an opportunity to sit into a brand new proton exora at one of the Proton showroom at Worldwide Business Centre, Shah Alam during a working trip. I was offered to have the car a test drive. However due to time constrains. I do not be able to make it.
However, I have an opportunity to ignite the engine and it feel like you are igniting a Japanese made car. I believe if you do not look at the badge, you will not believe that the car is Made in Malaysia. Great outlook and sufficient features and affordable price.
Though there are some features that seems like imitating its competitors but to be good in imitating it is not easy as well. I think when Japanese or Korean started to manufacture their cars, they do the same things as well. Thumbs up to the new proton management and it seems like there are apparent improvement in the design, quality and cost efficiency in this new car.
The improvement though is coming a bit late but at least there is an awareness by the new management to embrace changes. Keep up the good jobs !!!
I sincerely hope that proton will excel in the coming models and improve its management efficiency in the near future. They can subscribe to the Japanese culture namely "Continuous Improvement" as their tag line.
Syabas Proton !!!!

The Malaysian Political Scene - As hot as "Chili Padi"
Since the GE 12, the Malaysia political scene has not been seen settle down.
I think that is a process of reforms, thanks to our Tun Abdullah. Though he was criticised of his lackluster performance and his "tidak apa" attitude. But he did some good things as well. He allowed the media to have a greater room of discussion in the media and allowed criticism to take place. Unlike his predecessor, whom blocked most of the channels. I personally think that Tun Abdullah should be awarded as " Father of Democracy" and rank after Tunku Abdul Rahman.
Here are some meaningful and unforgettable milestone after the GE12.
- Setting up of Pakatan Rakyat (PR) alliance that governs 5 states.
- The Anwar Ibrahim sodomy charge.
- Fiasco over the taking over of federal government on 19 Sept 2008.
- Appointment of Non Bumi deputy chief minister.
- The rising of Mohamad Nizar as "All Perakian" chief minister.
- Free water policy at Selangor.
- Land grant to Chinese independent school at Perak.
- Losing battle of 4 out of 5 by elections
- Power wrist at Perak btw BN and PR
- The falling of Tun Abdullah
- The appoinment of Najib as new PM
- The 1Malaysia concept that invites so much interpretation.
I reckoned that though the political scene is some how in turbulence state but its is good for our future generation as it shape up the 2 party system for malaysia in the future.
